This is a project developed during a PCB class by students of a local university in 2019. The purpose of the course is to make students aware of the hardware design flow and design (schematics, footprints, symbols, layout), generate fabrication files and even assemble a PCB. I am just sharing one of the projects. Abraham had spare parts and assembled one of the student's board at home.
The project is based on the ODROID-GO it is an open project for game emulation using the ESP32.
The ODROID-GO kit was sold as an assembly kit image from https://www.hardkernel.com/
Unfortunately the ODROID-GO has been discontinued :( but Abraham got a kit some years ago, this is a video (Spanish) with a brief explanation but you can skip the video and go directly to this link :P
Just a video of the ODROID-GO kit alreay assemled
The mfg files were sent to JLCPB. The board is 10cm x 10cm and all the components are placed on top except for the battery.

One of the difference between this project and the ODROID-GO is that it has an audio jack but has no speaker. I took this picture when Abraham was assembling the board.
Audio jack, ignore all the flux
The audio amplifier is about 3W, you can even hear the game through the ear buds without putting them on. This board had button A and button B swapped :P it was not fixed in the code.

The board runs with an ESP32 WROVER. All the libraries for the ODROID-GO can be installed in the Arduino IDE.
