Works with BBC micro:bit V1 & V2

Do you love games? Writing games, building games and yes even building game consoles? Then the SparkFun micro:arcade kit for micro:bit v2.0 is the perfect kit for you. The kit includes a controller:bit carrier board, which gives you access to a number of pins in the form of buttons laid out in a similar form factor to the original Nintendo Entertainment System controller. With this kit you will be able to turn a classic controller into an arcade cabinet by connecting just a few buttons and switches.


Inside the kit you will find all the components required to build your own micro:bit into a full-fledged game system. The only parts not included are 2x AAA batteries and the micro:bit itself. Simply add your own micro:bit to the provided controller:bit, assemble the kit, and you will be ready to start playing.

The kit does not require any soldering and is recommended for anyone curious about gaming or the micro:bit platform. When you are ready to control more than just games, the SparkFun controller:bit is equipped with the SparkFun Qwiic system to allow you to expand your curiosity to an ever growing ecosystem of sensors & controllers!
