This session is great for any experience level from hobby to pro!

We begin with a basic hardware setup that includes a Raspberry Pi and an old gaming controller connected via Bluetooth. Once we get our OS / emulator installed, we configure a few things like button mapping.

Next up we start to install a few games. Where can we find fun - and legal - ROMs to use with our emulator? Is it possible to extract data from old cartridges? There are lots of interesting things we can do with our old games using modern technology!

Lastly, we swing for the fences and try to create our own custom ROM from scratch. After installing a special emulator, we dive in and start debugging some code. You'd be surprised what a little bit of assembly language, some C# generated assets, and an open source converter can accomplish...

Bring a friend to the presentation because two player games are always more fun!
