Plug and play USB Arcade at a reasonable price

This kit is great for use with the Raspberry Pi. There are NO instructions, however, there are a few good resources on the "questions" portion of the Ebay sales piece. My 7-year-old and 10-year-old after some instructions wired all of this up. The wires are a bit short, but still, I was able to wire everything without issue. The buttons are LED lit and are the screw type which is great if using a 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick boards for your arcade. USB plug and play with PiCade. My only minor…

Pros
  • Awesome speedy delivery product as described
Cons
  • The case is too bulky and adds unnecessary weight to the Raspberry Pi

Worked great out of the box wiring was a little tricky .

Worked great out of the box wiring was a little tricky but once you get one figured out the rest are the same. For users with more complex Raspberry Pi setups, the case's limited design options may not be sufficient for their needs!

Pros
  • Budget-Friendly: Unlike other Raspberry Pi cases, the SB Clear Protective Case is affordable without compromising quality. It provides a cost-effective solution to safeguarding your device and keeping it safe from everyday wear and tear
Cons
  • For users with more complex Raspberry Pi setups, the case's limited design options may not be sufficient for their needs

This was my First time building an arcade using raspberry pi and these buttons looked as good as any other I saw on Ebay. When I recieved them I was a little confused because no instructions or paper work at all came with them. The only way I could find anything on them was by typing in the number that was printed on the back of the board. After doing some research I got everything figured out but two of the blue buttons were not lighting up and every time you tried to press the non lit buttons

Pros
  • Controllers
Cons
  • The case's clear plastic color can discolor over time, making it look cheap and dated

Great company to deal with

Works as intended. Great product. Excellent customer service. Had an issue with some parts. Contacted them, they replied back quickly & get the problem resolved. Very happy with this purchase.

Pros
  • Video Games
Cons
  • The case is not compatible with other Raspberry Pi models, limiting its versatility

Works fine for my opinion

I'm running RetroPie and these work great as long as you configure them and wire them correctly. If you have the wiring wrong than pressing buttons will make them short out, etc.

Pros
  • One blue button was not lighting up. Seller replaced it.
Cons
  • I was sent 2 raspberry pi cases instead of arcade controls as advertised.

Great value good for me

I ordered way earlier than I was able to actually install this product which caused a bit of conflict. Unfortunately the first time setting up the joystick wasn’t reading correctly because of a faulty encoder. This was slightly after the deadline had passed to file for return. After discussing with longruner I was able to resolve the issue and now my set is working as I want. Great customer service on their part. They work great especially for the price when comparing to other similar products.

Pros
  • Its semi-transparent polymer provides tough colourful protection for your Pi.
Cons
  • The cover can obscure the Raspberry Pi's indicator lights, making it difficult to assess the device's status

Probably Good for the Experienced;

I haven't installed this into a system yet, but I do wish it came with even basic instructions. Or a link to instructions. I am struggling to figure out how to do what I want to with it.

Pros
  • PC
Cons
  • The case can trap heat and cause the Raspberry Pi to overheat
