This is the last video where I will show the build process of the on the go retropie as well as I will be showing a quick demo of it working at the end. I tried to speed up the build but if it is too long just fast forward if you would like to get to the demo.

Thanks to everyone for the support and this project was very fun to build. I may do some live streaming of the gaming on it.

Now you can take your favorite games out on-the-go with this build.
