Description

This neat little device is an open source GameBoy you can build yourself (it’s fully DIY – do it yourself).

Besides being a cool retro handheld device, MAKERbuino is also an educational device shaped like a game console. It’s a great (and also fun and cool) tool for learning and/or teaching various forms of STEM skills (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics).

Solder your own game console, play cool retro games, learn STEM through fun and interesting tutorials, make the game of your dreams, share with a large community.

In the basic MAKERbuino kit, you’ll get all the components needed to build and program your own game console.

A detailed guide with lots of pictures is included to make assembly super-easy: MAKERbuino build guide.

Age 11+ is advised. Average build time:  5 – 6 hours (depending on user’s skill level).

*You’ll need some basic soldering and assembly skills to put the kit together which are included in the kit.

The design is fully open source, programmable in Arduino and compatible with various Arduino modules.

MAKERbuino was designed to make the assembly process as easy as possible – all components are big enough to be soldered by hand and are not sensitive to overheating (which might happen if an inexperienced user is soldering).

MAKERbuino is also compatible with Gamebuino and its vast game library.

MAKERbuino PCB – the main board that connects all the components in a uniform device that can work as a game console
MAKERbuino casing – multiple sheets of acrylic cut with the power of lasers. They protect the innards and give MAKERbuino this sleek look
