## Description

The Adafruit Joy Bonnet turns your Raspberry Pi Zero into a handheld gaming device. This fully assembled bonnet sits on top of any Pi Zero and provides arcade-style controls — a mini joystick and buttons — that act as keyboard inputs once you run the Adafruit installer script. No soldering required on the bonnet itself. Designed for use with RetroPie and EmulationStation, the Joy Bonnet works well with NES, MAME, and other emulators that run comfortably on the Pi Zero's hardware. Pair it with a comfortable case for the best handheld experience.
