Reckon it has a Pi Zero in it?

@Rion Yeah I would be totally happy with that. Wouldn't even need all the fancy stuff like a working door and a mini cartridge. Just a place to mount a fan for some active cooling and some holes for air to go through. Led I would prolly change out as well.....

Something that would be better than paying 60$ for a Pi case would be to convince @mike to start selling his custom made Pi Nintendo 3D printed case.

You can also find some on ebay. But to be honest, the 3D printing I've seen used on these projects just doesn't produce the highest quality cases. One of those things I would make if I had access to a 3d printer... but I probably wouldn't pay for one.

This is not the same as the one that's linked in the thread. @mike 's 3D printed custom case even looks better then Nintendo's Mini New.

Oh, I didn't mean to imply it was the same. Just pointing out that others have stepped up to the plate with the 3D prints for sale. As for what looks better, it's all subjective so I'll just leave it at that.

@Rion i cant agree. I look at his 3d printed nes and i see every line of all the layers of plastic. I will never buy a 3d printed part that is to be displayed. They all look like garbage to me. His nes could have been really good if it didnt show every flaw of 3d printing. I applaud him for what he accomplished but i am too picky to be able to enjoy using 3d printed stuff as a show piece. Sure there are several things i would take in a 3d printed part, just not this. I am not dogging the work he did, its just the side effect of 3d printed parts

@edmaul69 there is always mold injection :p

It's really amusing how many friends on Facebook and community are going bonkers for this thing. They have totally no idea what the Raspberry Pi can do. I can build them all consoles that destroy this thing but they aren't hearing me.

Sometimes a puppet show is much more effective.

@GreenHawk84 you need to mod one with a pi in it to make them want it.

I think I am going to construct a console RPi this year as a gift.
