Parts List:

Power Adapter

Raspberry Pi

USB Super Nintendo Controller (This is the best one I have found so far)

HDMI Cable

WiFi Dongle

Other Items you will need:

USB Keyboard

Monitor or TV with HDMI Support




Now you dont have to use these parts exactly, there are plenty of other parts you can use. I am pretty sure that you can play Roms up to Playstation 1.



There is also a new Raspberry Pi 3 that is compatible with the RetroPie software which has WiFi and Bluetooth integrated into the board.

Here is the Case I found on Etsy. There are plenty of other sellers but this guy was great!

If you live near a Micro Center, they sell the Pi2B for the regular price. Actually, right now mine shows it for $30.

EDIT: Yes, you do need to live near one. That's why I said it. If not, you can always pay a few extra dollars for one on Amazon. (Currently only $3 more, and should be free shipping.)

Someone asked me for a parts list via PM. I am a lazy man, so this is a 100% Amazon Prime build:

Raspberry Pi 2: $35

SNES controller adapter: $11

32 GB MicroSD card: $10

Power Supply: $10

Case: $7

RetroPie: $0

The ability to play your favorite games forever: Priceless

A suped up quad core. May not be quantum enough though.

If you have an extra $3, you could get an old version of the Raspberry Pi. An extra $7 gets you the next model.

Raspberry Pi Model B 756-8308 Motherboard (RASPBRRYPCBA512)

Raspberry Pi 2 Model B Project Board - 1GB RAM - 900 MHz Quad-Core CPU

You could probably replace it with something actually functional for $40 and save money in the long run saving money on your electric bill.

I think the convenience of a bundle and free 2 day shipping will make a lot of people overlook an increase in price.

And buying all these components separate its only looking at like a 6 dollar increase, for your 56 dollars are you buying the same things?

Thats 77 dollars. I'm sure you could find it for cheaper, but those are all comparable to whats actually in that kit (or exactly whats in that kit)

depende do raspberry PI né?

Steam Link isn't a bad idea, but I've been considering getting a Raspberry Pi and installing Retropi. All in all, I don't expect to spend more than $75.

Emulation Station

Raspberry Pi Model B

USB SNES controller

32Gb MicroSD w/ adapter card for storage

If you or know someone who has a 3D printer, you can print your own case for the Pi

Edit: Just realized you said "my pc hooked up to the tv" - skip the whole getting a Pi part

I tried looking a few months ago and ended up buying one online. The Raspberry Pi manufacturers only directly sell to large online retailers, so even if you did find one, it would be at a marked up price.

If you order from Amazon before tomorrow afternoon you can have it by Monday, free shipping.

I bought from Amazon.com (BuyaPi user) and it came to $55 CAD all in. http://www.amazon.com/Raspberry-Pi-Model-Project-Board/dp/B00T2U7R7I/ref=sr_1_1?m=AYY3UP8OL9FV8&s=merchant-items&ie=UTF8&qid=1426252129&sr=1-1

Officially added the Raspberry Pi to my WL

What is the difference between the B+ and 2? Which would be better for beginners/give the best performance?

All I could find on Amazon is the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B and the Raspberry Pi B+. Are these the two you are talking about? In the first link what is the difference between the 2 options? Does the $54 option just include a MicroSD card? Will he need one to do anything or does the base model start with some memory?

Also what accessories would you recommenced I buy for someone who is just starting out and doesn't know what they want to do with it yet?

Is there any sort of buyers guide online?

You can preorder CHIP.

Raspberry Pi 2 on Amazon.

Here are various versions of the Cubox-i at Newegg.

PS. I'm looking to sell my Cubox i4pro if anyone is interested.

Most of the time the processor just needs to be capable of rendering .H264 codec (.mkvs and shit) so most things can do that, you're just using the Pi as a media renderer. I have streamed 1080p content in my house through the RPi, it handles it very well.

I only have Netflix on the PS4 now, and I rarely use it. I found this guide and it mentions Netflix/Hulu etc, so I'd give this a read. The latest RPi is pretty beast, you can get HATs for them that add extra things now as well (like higher audio DAC HATs, LEDs, breakout cables for the pins, built in IR receiver).

EDIT : They are actually very cheap and super versatile, I'd say if you've got £30 to spare then get the latest one and have a mess around with it. You can't really lose much, if you've already got an SD card knocking around and a USB keyboard/mouse, then you're there.

There is also http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00T2U7R7I which is in stock in the Amazon warehouse so should ship pretty quickly

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00T2U7R7I/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1449554166&sr=8-1&pi=SX200_QL40&keywords=raspberry+pi+2+model+b&dpPl=1&dpID=4133JwedpXL&ref=plSrch

More Info on my train of thought.

I believe that this is the GitHub repository. My ideal concept would be to run HypriotOS on a Raspberry PI on a shelf at home with Docker running your web container. With a LetsEncrypt TLS certificate set to renew every 2 months.

Welcome to a TNO email model. You can now encrypt your emails to anyone on any vanilla SMTP server and you don't need to install apps anywhere and you can trust your own webserver as much as you can trust your ability to host a secure Raspberry PI.

Side note:

If you think that hiding your email from Google is going to stop them from seeing the bits and bytes eventually you're kidding yourself. So if you can't beat em use em!

My concerns:

• I don't know what kind of code audits have been performed on this.
  
• You want to know every bit of background goes into your Docker containers. This step may be unnecessary for most people. Although it provides a certain degree of protection using docker.
  
• This does not provide you with an SMTP/POP/IMAP server its only a web client which can piggyback normal email servers.
  
  Edit: readability and clarity

Maplin doesn't have a broad selection of Raspberry Pi components (and 2 out of 3 stores don't have any Pi in stock, just their own expensive bundles).
Plus, they are indeed more expensive than buying from Amazon.
I'd suggest to buy from Amazon, and have them shipped to your place (free delivery is an option if you can wait).

Just a comparison will give you an idea of why Maplin is "not cheap"

Maplin store: http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/raspberry-pi-2-model-b-quad-core-1gb-mainboard-n02eb

Amazon UK store:http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00T2U7R7I

the best rpi hardware wise is http://www.amazon.com/Raspberry-Pi-Model-Project-Board/dp/B00T2U7R7I/ref=sr_1_4?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1449084171&sr=1-4&keywords=raspberry+pi

if you are willing to spend this much thats great. if not i wouldnt go with the one you linked either (the 512mb B+) which is only slighty cheaper but more or less outdated, instead try to get the new zero, https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/pi-zero/ for the novelty factor of being a 5$ computer

it is hard to come by currently but cheaper.
In either case the person needs a usb power adapter and a sd card to be able to use it. this is not something you necessarily have to gift as well and he/she probably already owns these things

check out /r/raspberry_pi for more information

You should be able to do that fairly easily off an Rpi, this Rpi2 model B most likely can perform on par or better than your P4 assuming everything you use is ported to ARM.

Rpi A+ might fit your budget a bit better, though it may not be able to do as much at once, you may need a large SD card or USB drive with some swap space.

This PCduino is probably the cheapest you'd want to go.

Double check your current normal use against what each of these boards offer so you don't end up spending money on something cool that isn't capable of doing what you need it to.

Raspberry Pi 2 B+ (Older versions are barely powerful enough for streaming 1080p): http://www.amazon.com/Raspberry-Pi-Model-Project-Board/dp/B00T2U7R7I/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1452140774&sr=8-3&keywords=raspberry+pi+2+b%2B

Follow the steps here: https://www.reddit.com/r/raspberry_pi/comments/2ahzp2/raspberry_pi_encoder_live_streaming_to_youtube/

The most important step is to download ffmpeg crosscompiled for arm from here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0OC20ApqKZ_YVB3NHF6VU9XTUE/edit?usp=sharing

Then you can use my script:
./video.sh "Your custom message can go here"

My proposal is Raspberry pi 2:

Price $36.88
http://www.amazon.com/Raspberry-Pi-Model-Project-Board/dp/B00T2U7R7I

Advantage is that it is versatile and can be used for many other things.
