## Description

The Adafruit PyGamer is a pocket-sized, open-source gaming handheld built for DIY game development and retro emulation. Powered by the ATSAMD51 running at 120 MHz with 512 KB flash and 192 KB RAM, it features an analog thumbstick, six tactile buttons, a colour TFT display, and stereo audio — all on a single board. Program it with MakeCode Arcade for drag-and-drop game creation, CircuitPython for scripting graphics and audio in Python, or Arduino with the Adafruit Arcada library for low-level control. The Feather-compatible headers and three STEMMA connectors make it easy to expand with FeatherWings and external sensors.
