Hello,
Recently I advised a friend of mine to get one of this and I had the oportunity to set it all up.
Hardware: 10/10
Heber did a really good job an going for an compute module instead of asking you to buy an raspberry pi 4. PCB is nicely buid, planty of IO (USBs, HDMI, VGA, S-VIDEO and so on). It just looks good and it feels good when you have it in hand. As far as I know, it is the only all-in-one Raspberry Pi jamma thing that you can get. Heber did an really good job on the hardware. Hats off.
Software: 5/10
Its MAME on an raspberry pi. One must have some skills and experience in order to set it up.RGB-pi OS4 image is no longer officially online. I was lucky I still had my microSD card with OS4 on it and I managed to get it to work. If you need to do an factory reset, you'll need to enter "1234" as password. One needs good google skills in order to find this password. One needs to do an "manual power off" in order to get the settings saved! otherwise you'll need to remap the controls on every boot.
I did not try to contact Heber, nor did I fully read the manual. Who does it anyway?
))
It would be really great and time saving if Heber made their own software for it.
Coin input is called select. One has to map the select input to coin switch.
Games play well. If you care for or see any differences between original hardware and emulation, let's be honest, why are you using emulation anyway?
Long story short: This is an great product and I can recomand it.
