    Does anyone know of anywhere one might be able to purchase a Sega Megadrive styled Raspberry Pi 3 case? Something like the retro console in this picture would be absolutely amazing!

    If anyone can help, bless you. :)

      Bit messy but it's such a nice case and a great tribute to the Mega Drive. Be great if there was somewhere to buy a nicely finished and not second hand unit, but hats off to the guy for completing it. :)

        I would go for a full size MegaDrive myself. I always had the larger Genesis Ver. 1 growing up - and that thing is probably big enough to fit four Pi's inside! I've seen no pre-made ones, and no 3d printed ones either (and had I, that would have stuck in my mind because Genesis is my favorite old console I think).

          I'm not a woodworker by any means. But I made my own Genesis case for my Pi1. :D

              That is just sooooo cool! Congrats on an amazing unique Rpi case!

              I would love to get my hands on a reproduction Mega Drive case for the Pi. It's absolutely my favourite old system. I still see them occasionally in games shops now and think it's by far and away the most attractive console there's ever been.

                @obsidianspider is working on putting a Pi in a Sega Genesis USB Hub:
