The esp32 uses Retro-go to emulate games

Side by side comparison with the original one

Some pictures of the PCB

Known problems :

  • The buttons doesn't make great contact compared to the original PCB

Components :

  • ESP32 module without PCB antenna
  • 1.54 inches IPS 240*240px
  • about 33030mm battery or 41530mm

Note : it is almost the same schematic as my Retro-Ruler

Questions

How big is the Hema console PCB?

It measures 33 × 50 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Hema console use?

59 parts, built around the 74LVC1G17Z, ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N8, NS4168 and AP2112K-3.3. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Hema console KiCad files?

From the rapha-tech/ESP32-hema-console repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB files/hema_console.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB files/hema_console.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Hema console design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask rapha-tech before reusing the design.
