The ByteBoi: Build Your Own Games Console!

Whether it’s the portable gaming on the phone or the multi-core PC powered FPS, gaming is as popular now as it has ever been! The CircuitMess ByteBoi – An Advanced DIY Game Console aims to not only put a miniature games console at your fingertips, but give you the skills to build it yourself and even program your own games! As Mortal Kombat rightly pointed out: “There is no knowledge that is not power.” – it’s time to gain some knowledge points!

The ByteBoi is a completely open-source retro gaming console, which comes with a full-color TFT display, a main board with an integrated ESP32, space for 1GB of SD card storage, and a frankly incredible dual-core CPU! There are a bunch of games pre-loaded onto the device, but the opportunity to learn how to make your own might just be the best bit!

It has connectivity for BlueTooth and Wifi meaning when you’ve made the next big Flappy Bird or Angry Birds inspired gem, it can be shared with the online community! The ByteBoi is made by CircuitMess who are based in Croatia and already have a formidable line up of retro tech!
