Resurrect a dead NES with Raspberry Pi

 Like many of you, I was a child of the 80's brought up on NES & SNES. The wonderful world of Mario Bros. Zelda, Faxanadu and Castlevania just to name a few.  We all knew the magic tricks to get a dead cartridge to work - blowing in it, rubbing it with an eraser, running the NES upside down or justing tac to hold the cartridge in the down position.

One great project by Igor Kromin was to get a dead NES working with a Raspberry Pi to power it.

He set out to:

  • Build an emulator box to play NES/SNES games
  • Use the original NES case
  • Use the original NES controllers
He managed to control the original system's power button, indicator LED, and even integrate the original controllers using an open source driver and the Raspberry Pi's GPIO pins.
