Zelda Case

[A Former User]

Hi

Here are some pictures and the item list of my RPI3 Custom Zelda Retropie build. I burned the case with a butane gas micro blow torch and the logo's using a soldering iron.

Final picture of the side panel with Triforce logo and the back with cut outs for HDMI, the powercord and the fan.

@kverreth top job!! :)

@kverreth Awesome! When you open the case, does it go "duh nuh nuh nuhhhhhh!"?

What is the blue thing attaching the power button? How does the power button function? Does it issue a safe shutdown command before powering off (all in one), or do you shutdown using ES and then press the button to power it off (two steps)?

Great looking build, congrats!

Looks awesome! great wood burning!

Question: What is that small blue shield?

That is the powerblock shield. Here is the link for more info: http://blog.petrockblock.com/2015/07/04/powerblock-another-power-switch-for-the-raspberry-pi/

Powering off the pi will be a safe shutdown, it will invoke sudo shutdown -h now. You just have to push the button to power on/off. No need to shut down ES first.
