This is a custom handheld game console created with an old smartphone. The phone is running Android but has been altered to remove all unnecessary background applications and acts as a kiosk for Daijisho, a front end menu system for Retroarch. Since I didn't have bluetooth capable controls that I could bake into the system, I settled for using a bluetooth gaming controller I already had that can be popped in and out of the case as needed, allowing me to continue using it with other systems as well. The case itself is 3D printed specifically to enclose the old phone and hold the controller together, and it offers access to volume and power buttons as well as the USB charging port and headphone jack. Currently I am running a collection of NES and Gameboy games.
