I've just launched my first Kickstarter - http://kck.st/2CPI6re

It's a fightstick that has a mini computer inside running emulators.
It can connect to any HDMI TV.

After 5 days there are only few visits and no backers.
Any feedback or tips on how to promote it will be appreciated.

I think it's a little too rough looking. The video isn't the best demo as the clunking of the buttons and noise is a bit off putting.

If you could finish it better, perhaps include a guide on how to install it and target Raspberry pie users it might gain some traction.

I really like the design. Are you planning on creating a more visual design with it?

The only other video I made is this https://imgur.com/t5TAuxY, I don't know if people will like it more. The main selling point of the arcade buttons is their clickiness most people will like that.
For a guide I'll include this https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/First-Installation - it's the official RetroPie guide.

I'll also make them with different colours of acrylic and buttons. I've looked into adding some art as well but that will be as expensive as the panels themselves and decided not to do it.
