<h2>Introduction to the micro:arcade Kit</h2>
<p>We love games! We love writing games, building games and yes, even building game consoles. So we want to introduce to you the <a href="http://bit.ly/2eUCoOi">micro:arcade kit</a> for the micro:bit!</p>
<p>The kit includes our <a href="http://bit.ly/2h8YWvA">gamer:bit</a> carrier board for the micro:bit, which gives you access to a number of pins through the form of buttons in a classic game controller layout. But, that isn’t all!</p>
<p>It’s one thing to design a “game controller,” but what about building a console? A joystick, buttons to mash…the things that make us hard-core arcade fans drool and daydream. This kit is designed for you! The kit includes all of the parts you need to take this lowly controller breakout to a pinball wizard’s dream!</p>
<h3>Included Materials</h3>
<p>Below is all the parts included in the SparkFun micro:arcade kit.</p>
