mini-Arcades; DIY MODs for Switch and iPad
How to modify the iCade tabletop arcade cabinets to work with the iPad, Switch, Raspberry Pi, and other gaming hardware.
While an iPad 2 LCD was used in the video, an iPad 3 or iPad 4 9.7inch lcd screen will work as-long as it has the proper driver board. Since the connections of the driver board can’t be used with the metal case cutouts anyway (due to the tight fit in cabinet) any appropriate driver board for the lcd screen should be good.
