I hope this is the moment you are waiting for. The Game Pie Advance v2 is now available to purchase as a preorder product.

As you may have read (in my previous post), we were considering offering a pre-order process for these kits. Without that, things just go way too slowly. We can only order a small bundle of parts, we take a while to build them up, and then we send them out. In that scenario, we don’t have time to add new features, and we the units are only available in very limited batches. What we’ve heard from you guys is that we all would like that to change, so let’s “kickstart” this process!

As a bit of a recap (for most of you), the Game Pie Advance is a kit that allows you to combine your Raspberry Pi Zero with RetroPie and fit it all inside a GBA shell for maximum portability and retrotastic style points.

You supply a Raspberry Pi Zero, a GBA shell, some batteries, and a little bit of skill. You combine that with the GPA DIY kit, and you have a fun retro portable. As this is a pre-order, we do not yet have the new (v2) circuit boards produced. That’s what we need your help for. We do, however, have some photos of the first version that we can show you, so you can get an idea of how it works.

Please read through the rest of this website if you want to know more. Please go to the Game Pie Advance v2 preorder page if you’d like to order one. If you have any further questions, please leave a comment below.
