GRIZZLY - Handheld Game Console
Introducing GRIZZLY!
I designed this handheld game console to look the way I wish consoles did. I also wrote a step-by-step guide to make it straightforward for anyone to build. This project is completely free to build under the Creative Commons BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.

I wanted the person building this console to be able to play games as early as the first step. I structured this project in a way that you'll have a functional game console from day one and add improvements in layers whenever you can afford to work on it.
For example, I started playing games with just the Raspberry Pi connected to my PC monitor, an old keyboard, and a phone charger to power it. Later, I added a portable screen, then buttons, then a battery. And I was always able to play games regardless of which step of the process I was in.
