Freeplay CM3 DIY Kit: The Freeplay CM3 comes as a kit with a Freeplay CM3 circuit board (with built-in Raspberry Pi core), a 3.2" LCD, and a bag of parts needed to build the console.  You won't need to supply your own Raspberry Pi. You won't need to do any soldering (we hope). You will just supply your chosen GBA-style shell and mod it to fit the Freeplay CM3. 

Necessary Additions

• Micro SD Card
• GBA-Style Shell & Rubber Button Pads (some shells include the pads)
• Battery (we carry this perfect fit battery or this cheaper alternative battery)

Optional Additions

• Freeplaytech Glass LCD Lens Screen Cover (for that finishing touch)
• HDMI Adapter (for playing on the big screen or testing your build before you use the built-in LCD)
• USB WiFi Network Adapter (the RPi Compute Module 3 does not include WiFi or Bluetooth functionality)
• Tri-Wing Screwdriver (the GBA-style shells often use tri-wing screws)
• Colored X/Y Button Caps
