Original

A Raspberry Pi Zero is the recommended starting point.

Alternatives

Tested

A Raspberry Pi 2 or 3 are usable, but will require manually removing the USB ports, ethernet ports, GPIO headers, and possibly ripping the PCB down in size.

Raspberry Pi 2 Model B

Raspberry Pi 3 Model B

The new Raspberry Pi Zero W will also work, making WiFi and Bluetooth dongles non-necessary.

Raspberry Pi Zero W

Not Tested - Advanced

These systems are available and roughly the same size as a typical Raspberry Pi, and have been used or theorized to be usable by some of the more advanced modders.

  • Super Expensive
  • Very powerful
  • Kind of large
  • Might be 'plug & play' (or as close to such a thing for us) if you can work around it's size.
  • No GPIO, interface via Arduino or Teensy via usb.
  • Windows only?
  • Project example

  • Atom CPU so windows or linux at your choice
  • Oodles of I/O options
  • Kinda big for GBZ or MintyPi project
