I love old games. They remind of simpler times when games where games, and not Hollywood-blockbuster-wannabes like Call of Duty and the like. For a long time I've wanted to have an arcade cabinet, but I just don't have any space for a full cab. There are bartops and the like, but they're not very portable with their built-in screens and you can't hide it away if you need the space for something else.
Enter the Minicade. It's meant to be roughly the size of an X-Arcade Dual joystick, but with a built-in computer (Raspberry Pi most likely) that runs a frontend and emulators. On the back there will be connectors for connecting the Minicade to a regular TV using HDMI (and also power jack, Ethernet, additional USB ports...). This means that the Minicade will be a standalone device that you could bring to your friends when you want to play some classic arcade games!
