RPi Retro Arcade Setup

Hardware installation

The XC9064 and XC9062 arcade machines work in a similar fashion in terms of
hardware setup. You must use a bootable Raspberry PI (XC9001) and mount it inside of
the case.

Both units have an IDE connector available, which provides pin-outs for the button and
joysticks on the console. Connect the IDE connector so that the tab is facing into the
centre of the pi, as shown below:

Once connected and booted up, you can navigate to the terminal to install the required
gpio drivers.

In RetroPie, you can do this by pressing the Ctrl-Alt and F4 key; this changes view to a
virtual terminal window, which you can run ‘emulationstation’ to go back to
RetroPie.

Installing software (internet connectivity required)

The latest version of GPIONext can be found here:

https://github.com/mholgatem/GPIOnext/

This is a collection of python scripts hosted on github. You can install by following these
simple commands once you have connected to the internet:

When you run the install script; it will then ask you if you want to configure a joystick
now, which you can do; make player 1 as joystick 1 (and for XC9062, make player 2 as
joystick 2 by running gpionext config again). The button presses won’t matter, as
you will have to re-configure from within Retropie by going to the Start Menu and
pressing “Input Configuration.”
