Retro gaming goes with the Raspberry Pi like peanut butter and jelly, and today, we've got a delicious sandwich of a project to share that highlights this pair in a totally unique and versatile fashion. Maker and developer ZeroShifter, as they're known over at Reddit, is using not one but two Raspberry Pi Pico microcontrollers to spruce up his old Agetex arcade stick with some serious compatibility upgrades.
This controller was initially designed for the Sega Dreamcast, but some people enjoy the user experience, like ZeroShifter. Wanting to use it on more than just this classic console, he sought a way to modify the arcade stick so that it could be used with various other consoles. The result is two Picos crammed inside the case for a range of support from PlayStations and XBoxes to PCs and even the Nintendo Switch. According to ZeroShifter, it also supports VMU saves.
