In the 80s, you may have put coin after coin into your favourite arcade machine, giving a countless amount of money to a large box. Fast-forward 25 years or so, and using a £25 Raspberry Pi 3, along with some creative hacking, you can relive your high-score glory days as you play your favourite old-school classics to your heart's content.
Independent Sheffield-based web developer Matt Brailsford, aka Circuitbeard, shares his retro-Pi plans, which use a repurposed miniature desktop arcade machine as the housing.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED
For this build, you'll need a Raspberry Pi with a memory card, a Pimoroni Picade PCB, and a TFT screen with an HDMI input, and an HDMI cable and power supply. Additionally, procure a panel mount joystick, generally using microswitches, electrical buttons, a USB power supply with a micro USB plug, and a USB-A to micro USB cable. Four-ohm speakers and a 3.5mm audio jack are needed for audio. A Wi-Fi dongle (or the Pi 3's built-in Wi-Fi) and wireless keyboard are helpful for setting everything up after it's in your cabinet.

Power up your Raspberry Pi and monitor, then connect them with the HDMI cable. Install a piece of software called RetroPie, following the instructions that can be found on GitHub. This will set up your Pi as a retro-games emulator and will allow you to put ROMs, or copies of video games, on to it to play. The simplest way to add ROMs is with a USB
drive, as also outlined in that wiki. A good source for these files is archive.org/details/internetarcade.
SET UP THE CONTROLS AND CABINET
Plug the Picade PCB into your Raspberry Pi via USB. Wire your joystick and buttons into the Picade board after connecting them via USB cable. The Raspberry Pi will then interpret button and joystick input as keyboard presses. Plug the audio jack into the Raspberry Pi's output port and the Picade PCB's 3.5mm input jack, then wire your speakers into the adjacent screw terminals. Connect the Wi-Fi/Ethernet and a keyboard if using it. You can also use a custom-built kit, such as the Picade, for greater convenience.
I’m going to look at fruit machine cheats for £5 jackpot machines, and how you can turn your little trip to the seaside into a profitable venture with these low jackpot, low stakes fruit machines.
Project Coin Fruit Machines
Fruit machine cheats for £5 jackpot machines are often considerably different to their larger £100 and £70 jackpot counterparts, and as such, most people ignore them for their profit potential, instead playing them for fun. This makes them ripe for profits, and although each machine may yield only a small value, the amount of fruit machines in each location soon bumps this up into a worthwhile venture.

The £5 jackpot is where fruit machines go to die, and as such many are considerably old and likely familiar to yourself. This makes the value in the fruit machine cheats higher, as instinctively you will know some of how they play; but don’t be fooled, the £5 chips have characteristics often vastly different from their larger jackpot brothers. Did you know the constraints on repeats on £70 and £100 jackpot machines often don’t exist in their £5 jackpot counterparts. So jackpots that may only be able to repeat once or twice on the larger jackpots may repeat up to ten times on the £5 versions. For example, the £5 jackpot on Indian Jones, Raiders of the Lost Ark can repeat up to six times for a £35 win. Likewise, Yabba Dabba Darts can also pay up to £35 in one winning streak, and you don’t always need the top feature to take you there!
