SnakeBoy is a custom snake-themed handheld gaming console powered by the ESP32. Featuring built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, it supports multiplayer gaming, wireless ROM transfers, and retro emulation for a wide range of classic systems.
I'm making this Device so i can play soo many games on a handheld device that i can take anywhere. And also as a teen from Gen z, i want to try the games my family was playing before my Gen. Like, Super mario, etc.. (dk any other games' names 👀)
The Device is fully snake-themed and it has a snake had on the top of the device that looks so cool, I just like snakes so much.
- Charge the battery if it is not charged.
- Add all the games on the SD card and plug it from the inside.
- Switch on the device and wait for it to boot.
- Open your games and have fun yay.
