I have several grandkids under the age of 7. I’d like to build them a simple game system. It would consist of an old flat screen monitor (HDMI) built into a flat wooden box that would fit on their play table. The screen would be horizontal, not vertical. On this system I’d like to have a few simple games, like Pacman, Ms Pacman, Donkey Kong, Frogger, Mario, etc. The games should be played with buttons and joy sticks, not hand held game controllers. I will build the buttons and joy sticks into my custom case.
For the electronics to power it, it could be a Raspberry Pi or game system module. All the games should be stored in memory, no cartridges.
I’ve seen several articles on the subject. Many reference software that hasn’t been maintained in a few years. Many overlook the details on how to obtain licenses for the games.
What would recommend for set up such a game system?
