Show Me Your To-Go MiSTer Case!

My current grab-and-go situation for my MiSTer when not playing at home is embarrassing...a drawstring bag. Have any of you come up with a nice solution for playing on-the-go? Need enough room for the MiSTer, at least 2 handheld controllers (Sony PS4/5 in my case), a mini typing keyboard (I use the Rii mini bluetooth), a longish HDMI cable, long USB/extension cables and power adapter/extension cord.

Hehe, yes! And not to forget: "I have a bigger dick red button than you! The biggest button ever!" (freely quoted from Donald The Trumpet).
Time to play Missile Command, which was released today!

It's out of stock now, but I use the SNES Mini travel case. It's super cheap ($20) and fits a MiSTer, a controller, and many cables.
The Genesis mini case might work as well - just make sure to get one that doesn't use foam inserts to have more room.

I have an aluminum Misteraddons unit as well for grab and go, but I like the all in one, LCD built in, just needs power and play of this unit. Plus I had an empty Dolch PAC shell so .. why not :)

The blueprint cabinet is a great work bench and makes for great photos.

Here's my other "to go" MiSTer setup

Classics (NES/SNES mini) case with Misteraddons MiSTer, retrobit controller, original NES controller converted to USB, 4tb drive with all my games, and 5a power supply, and associated cables.

The retrobit doesn't fit in the case (cable is super long) but I just hang it out the top, it's really only for to work and back.

A bigger case in in the works.

I just posted viewtopic.php?p=70768#p70768.

This case has been so much fun. I can play anywhere and I don't have to constantly re-setup everything. I change out controllers a lot, and I loving bringing it with me to play with my friends. We get a huge kick out of playing the games of our youth.

for travelling i'm thinking space and weight, so i don't have it but i'm quite thinking about such io board/kit:

or same here:

that's a IO+Hub board hybrid, i've only seen it from those sellers and nowhere else, but it makes the whole stack very pocketable!
