For my Raspberry Pi project I have chosen the RetroPie. It allows you to turn your Raspberry Pi into a retro gaming system. The Raspberry Pi kit included:

  • Raspberry Pi (A, A+, B, B+, Zero, 2, 3)
  • 5V 2.5A Power supply
  • 8GB Micro SD Card Minimum
  • HDMI or RCA 4 Pole Cables
  • Gamepads and/or Keyboard
  • Ethernet or Wifi dongle (built in on the pi 3)
  • Raspberry Pi Case (optional but recommended)
  • Micro SD Card Reader

I also used these following links to help me create the Retro Pi:

How to Install RetroPie as an App in Raspbian on Raspberry Pi

The Retro Pi can be hooked up to a desk top or a TV. You can download games for free and then download games to play on the Retro Pi.

I thought this project was very difficult. Now that I am finished I realized I made it seem a lot harder than it actually was. I 100% recommend going in to see the professor to get help. That helped me out a lot.
