p5yk0Station2 [PS1-Case]

[p5yk0]

PS1 Case including:

• RasPi3

• 160GB HDD

• Adapter for PlayStation gamepads (manually soldered)

• GPIO ON/OFF switch

• Hardware ON/OFF switch

• 3.5A / 5V supply

• LED stripe for glow-effect

Its not pretty because I just pushed inside what i needed without thinking, but I learned for future projects




You can change the Pi OS-card without disassembling the case.

Like I said, in the inside it looks so bad because i didn't think while pulling all together.

But I hope you like it

you didn't use the original PS power switch ? I see 2 switches on the left of your PS1.

Have you used the gamecon driver for the original PS pads ?

[p5yk0]

@Substring i used an usb converter that already recognised 2 gamepads on the first startup. Even without pads plugged in.

I didn't use the original power switch in this build, because there was not enough space for it left. Maybe next time

But I learned much from this project. I am happy it works and don't look back on the outside. If you wondered why it's called "p5yk0station2", the "first" p5yk0station was a Mini-ITX-PC inside the PS1 Case, with use of the original switches, but it failed with heat problems

Next project will be something inside a Commodore64 case with use of it's keyboard. But this time, i plan first, then build
