It's my nephew's 12th birthday next week and I'd like to get a rasp pi kit with RetroPie and the NES controllers. Are there any decent UK suppliers that you know of? I've spent the morning looking and it's a mixed bag.

    Does Adafruit deliver to UK? I use them in NY. You are a great uncle - what a gift!

    That's the most awesome gift you could give

    btw, recalBox might be the better choice, instead of RetroPie

    @Jumpshot44 Unfortunately none the kit suppliers ship to Ireland, nor does any of them on Amazon.co.uk. Adafruit doesn't sell the gaming kit :(

    I'm conscious of giving him an easy 'in' to get it working, then let him take it from there, which is why the base starter kits are not ideal.

    With time short, I ordered a camera drone for him. The pi can be for Christmas giving me time to source parts. As a bonus, all this research has inspired me to finally build a MAME arcade cabinet :)
