This is the Hoenn Region National Pokedex I built. It features a Raspberry Pi 3 running Retropie, and is made to look as similar as possible to the Pokedex from Pokemon ORAS. It uses a 3ds joystick in place of the dpad in order to make it as realistic as possible.

1x PAM8803 Audio Amp
2x 3ds speakers

1x Raspberry Pi 3
1x Rechargeable Phone Battery Bank (5v)
1x power switch (SS12D00G4)
1x set of GBA replacement buttons (green)
1x 3ds slider joystick

Nice job! This looks awesome! Thank you for the tip on the bondo glazing and spot putty. I'm going to try this one some of the things my husband 3d printed to see how it turns out.

Nicely done! You did a great job describing the technical details during the build process and created an awesome product using some basic tools.

The end product looks very professional.

Nice Could totally be a project from the Ben Heck show... It's 3D printed, there's custom electronics, and it's nerdy

I once saw someone do a Game Boy advance mod "like" that, but this is a higher level some might cringe about the joystick, but I like the hack! Job well done
