      I just came across this article on the mintyPi 2.0.

      It is a project featured at Sudomod to build a handheld/pocket video game system using a Raspberry Pi Zero W inside an Altoids mint tin while 3D printing parts to go in the insides.

      This is not to be confused with @thedudester80's Mint Boy.

      Here is a picture and video:

          Credit to Wermy. His build inspired a bunch of my Altoids projects. Love what he did with this version and look forward to his tutorial for it even though I have a pretty good idea on how he accomplished that =].

          Mint Boy, Case Arcade, New Projects Coming soon....

            I'm active on the forum thread over there. I can't wait to build one. I can tell that it will end up being my go-to portable for taking with me when I am out and about as I won't really worry about beating it up or putting it in my pocket. I'm having a hard time finding DS Lite buttons though.
