PiJamma for Raspberry Pi
Earlier we announced the PiJamma Project. PiJamma is an add-on PCB for the Raspberry PI that simplifies connecting retro hardware like old game controllers or jamma arcade bartop or cabs.

Today my idea was to built a Arcade Stick that can be directly plugged to TV like the old good C64 DTV, but now with "everything".
Planned Features:
- Acryl Arcade Stick: all the nice tech stuff can be shown.
- Raspberry PI with 32Gb SD, packed with emu stuff plus WLAN Adapter
- PiJamma PCB for connecting Arcade Controls
- HDM plug
- USB plug
- PSU connector
- LED Modded buttons with new Acryl holder
- Buttons with inlay artwork
- Artwork
- Aluminium Panel
- NeoGeo 4 Button Layout
- Sanwa JLF Stick unit with Link. Stick can be pulled off.
Here the stock unit and the button with inlay artwork.

Checking where to place the components.
One sees here the interface panel with USB, HDMI and power supply interface. Rapsberry PI will be powered via PiJamma.
USB interface and HDMI interface connected to the interface panel and Raspberry Pi.
Arcade Controls connected to the PiJamma. Signals will be forwarded to Rasperry Pi GPIO interface. Additionally the LED Mod was installed.
GPIO interface connected.
The stick unit can be detached. So transport is more easy.
LED mod off
LED mod on, ok, it`s better to make such pics when it`s dark.

Just connected a keyboard or USB stick to the Raspberry Pi Arcade Stick.
First test with Commodore C64 Giana Sisters. :)
