That kinda looks like the NES Classic Edition Nintendo's rolling out! :)
Also, love the design!

@mike TAKE MY MONEY

As I'm extremely new to all of this, seeing the insides in great detail is awesome. Thank you. After I wiped the tears of joy from my eyes I could see an example of power buttons which I have always been curious about. No idea what arduino is but there goes my Friday.

This is awesome! Have you released the STL files anywhere I'd love to have a go at printing one for myself :D

You did a great job on this and its awesome with the the cart and cart slot. The only problem i have with this is its 3d printed which shows all rhe layers of plastic. Would sanding help or would you still see all the layers of plastic?

Wow simply, amazing!

PingSpike

Props man, props!!!

Incredible work and the NFC idea is simply genius, I love it :D

You might already know, but your build was featured on #CUPodcast with Pat the NES Punk today. In the fishbowl of this hobby, that's pretty much the big time. Very keen!

This thread title should be "The most impressive RetroPie-powered project you've ever seen!"

I'm really astonished by it!

BuZz

Very impressive! :) Love it.

Ekstreme

Perhaps Nintendo should have consulted with your before announcing the NES Classic

Cool that you posted your build here as well, i came across it a week ago on YouTube. It's really impressive and so creative, the NFC-cartridges. My hat's off to you sir! Brilliant!
