Inspired from the Gameboy Console, the RETROFLAG GPi Case is designed for the Raspberry Pi Zero.
Play retro games on the go with the Retroflag GPi case which is based on the classic Gameboy DMG design. Measuring at 135*81*32mm, it is a little smaller and a little lighter at 178g. It is the perfect size and more comfortable to hold for extended periods of time than other handhelds. It is powered by a Raspberry Pi Zero W for the best speed vs size performance for retro gaming on Raspberry Pi.
The display is a 2.8 inch 320x240 backlit LCD which is ideal for retro gaming. The GPi display is large, bright and colourful. And, unlike the original Gameboy you do not have to sit under a light to see the screen! It is the ideal retro console with games!
There is a great D-Pad and four gaming buttons (as well as Start and Select) on the front of the case, and located on the back are two shoulder buttons. This gives the best compatibility with a range of classic gaming systems while not detracting from the case design of the retro games handheld.
Keeping with tradition the GPi case is powered by three AAA batteries, or you can use the supplied USB cable with your mobile charger or a phone power bank.
The Retroflag GPi retro gaming handheld can run compatible Micro SD Card images such as RetroPie with games, Lakka & Recalbox builds (all 3 are compared here).The RetroPie runs systems from the 70’s up to the 2000’s.
Please note that some systems are not fully supported and as such some games may not run at full performance. These may be improved in future updates to the software.

This is a refurbished product. And may or may not come with original packaging. It may or may not contain cosmetic defects (scratches/dents).
This product was tested and it performs as a new product from a technical point of view.
I was a bit dubious about grabbing this as a refurbished item but there was no difference than if it had been brand new :)
Installation of the Pi Zero was really easy just clip it and and screw the case back together. Downloaded a full build from Arcade Punks which had all of the button mapping and other scripts.
Found an old GBA d-pad joystick which fits perfectly on top of the dpad and improves movement but that's just a personal thing.
Only miss I feel on the part of the manufacturer was using AA batteries so going to look at a lipo mod.
All in all a great partial DIY handheld.
Item arrived in excellent condition. Assembly was very easy once I downloaded a image. Eats batteries so I'm planning on using Rechargeable batteries in the future. All that said great little handheld very pleased with my purchase.
