Appendix F: References
This project takes inspiration from the large number of Raspberry Pi powered retro game consoles out there. Instead of using 3rd party software or games, however, this project involves a complete design and implementation of all software from scratch.
The following datasheets and websites were used during the development of this project. No code was copied into our project.
