      This is a project i made.
      Wanted to make a complete kit so a raspberry pi 3 can be placed in a NES.
      So i designed and printed this.
      For controllers i used USB ports, als 2 extra usb ports under the lid.
      A mausberry circuit for on/off/reset connected to the original switches and led.
      micro sd card slot access from the side

          Best NES Raspberry Pi build I've seen. Most ones look messy on the insides but this one just seem perfect in every way. Very inspirational. ☺️

              @japanwings This is amazing work. Makes my effort look like a hacked-up piece of turd in comparison.

                    Very nice, one of the best i have seen, the way the usb ports are integrated in the front in particular looks like a commercial design, well done!

                      Wow, a very nice conversion. good job. Is it planned that you make a guide about the conversion? So that you can build it? Which cables do you need, adapters and the files for 3D printing? That would be really great, I would in my old nes also a pi block and so a nice tidy conversion as with you I have so far nowhere found.

                        Take a look at www.facebook.com/nes2pi
                        It comes with a detailed instructions and a partslist with the vendors product details.
