I like the internal connection that doesn't require additional cables for the USB board.

I really like this, well done here

Thank you

Care to update you posts with some more pictures of the inside? Would be much appreciated. Have an old SNES case i like to use for Mister as well, but hooking stuff up to IO board scares me a bit

In a week I open the stock again.

Here's mine.

Noctua NF-A4x10 Fan (really recommend)
SDRAM XSD v2.5 128MB
I/O Board v6.1 XL
SMS/Genesis SNAC
Retrobit Saturn Controller
I have a USB to PS/2 adapter so that I can use my old Microsoft ball mouse for Atari ST


The case is an acrylic case from zerohimself. I love the look of it so much. In person, it looks as if it's glow in the dark. Obviously I had to get a nightmode shot in there!

Love this case where can I get one ?

I believe this is a custom case from Manuferhi.

Repost from the previous message board, my setup inside a Super Nintendo:

Hi - Here is my MiSTER FGPA.

This is built and designed by Paul at BAD DOG DESIGNS in the UK.

Cased in original 1940s bakelite repurposed with modifications and includes a 5" LCD screen connected
via VGA on the IO board that compliments a big screen HDMI output.

The brass 'sunrise' is a custom 3D print inspired by art-deco inspired speaker grills
of the 50s that conceals an extra case fan in the 'roof' of the case.

A custom power supply feeds 5v and 12v to the unit to power the screen and D10 and IO board with one button.

A pair of custom 3D printed harness' hold the LCD screen and 'top fan' in place.

It's six inches wide at the front and six inches deep fron front to back .

The real brass custom nameplate on the front - "MiSTer - ANARCHY", the "ANARCHY" releates to my days in the AMIGA scene
where I formed and led the demo-team of that name for 5 years - 1989 to 1993.

A short video in a Twitter post can be seen here showing the C64 CORE running... https://twitter.com/i/status/1266794245576327169

Beautiful!

Thanks... I’m new to MiSTer... I’ve only had this for a couple of days... And loving it.

I have the Blister, so I think it's not possible.

No, not possible.

Mine is not much but I like it for now. I'm holding off on getting an I/O board for now, as I have no use for it.

I like the slim look of a MiSTer minus the add on boards! Great if it meets your needs

I don't have a fancy case, but I do have a portable mister setup.


It's a G-Story 11.6 Inch FHD Gaming Monitor (1080p 60hz) with a Anker PowerCore 13000 portable battery. The case was designed for a playsation classic or snes/nes classic, but it fits the de-10 nano, battery, and one controller no problem as you can see in the picture.

The monitor is excellent and worked fine with vsync_adjust=2

Very cool.
How much playtime do you get from the battery?

Got the 6.1 IO board, the 2.1 USB hub, and 128 MB ram from zerohimself, got the case from MisterAddons, that thing sticking out of the VGA port is the composite transcoder from Antonio Villena, and I got Audio In and an RTC board from random ebay sellers. I just need some SNAC boards and I'm set.

~3 hours

My standard setup with acrylic plates.

My masterpiece.
Retro(?) on the outside, ghetto on the inside.

The beige plastic matches my crt PC monitor.

Here's what I've been working on all afternoon. The case is an old DVR unit that was getting thrown away at work. I saw it and decided it was perfect for the MiSTer.

Hope you like.....

Looks good. How do you do the cooling? Can we take a look inside?

Please excuse the cabling. It's going to get redone soon but I'd already spent hours on it yesterday and had had enough.

@terminator2k2:

I checked out the link for that aluminum case -- do they do the hole cutting on it, or did you do it?

The listing makes it seem like they do custom cutouts, and it isn't clear if the case is sold with no holes cut.

This is my travel MiSTer; that I just upgraded to a PCB case to save space.
The carrier is a SNES mini case I found for $20 at Target (I think it's also available online)

What (Wireless?) keyboard is this?

It looks like one of those Rii-branded handheld keyboards.

Yes, it's a Rii x8. Works well enough for light typing and entering basic commands.
I also ordered the one that comes with a gamepad included, but still waiting for it to arrive (takes weeks).

12 Euro for the i8 is a fair price. orderd one to for testing (https://www.amazon.de/dp/B00W2YGJWK/)
