    I got the RetroPie out last week and just was having a marathon (over 4hours ) playing some of the most mind blowing video games . I was plunking in quarters into pong, Exidy Circus ( I could play on one quarter for over a hour back in the late 70's at one of my favorite Bars in Milwaukee on Locust street Golden nugget no longer there) .


    A lot of the games you needed a ps2 controller that's wired usb

    I got this

    I dusted off my Raspberry pi KingX mame / game platform (up to ps2, but none of the Xbox platforms .

    So I check out only Half of what that little computer has on that micro SD card and I think that I have all the Pachinko and Pachislo games that were made.

    I played the neck out of one of the earliest Hewia cells and I think that I m learning a bit of Japanese cause I kind of figured how to put credits on it so I could get the pachinko balls to play it and I think that I have a good high score on it
