Issue #161 - Games
Happy Friday!
Classic gaming seems to be the theme for the week. From a Raspberry Pi-powered player piano playing the Mario soundtrack, to the classic Mayhem available on GitHub, and Olympic-themed button-mashing with Code Club, it’s all about retro fun. So forget Pokémon Go: your Pi-driven gaming flashback weekend is set.
So have a good one!
Peace,
Alex
