Very nice and slim design. They replaced the vga port with a sega Saturn one. Which is okay. But I think I would prefer the vga one. I added/fiddled a usbc port for power which cracked a bit of the plastic. Nothing superglue can't fix.

Now there have a new version of this,it has type-c power supply and a power switch

Did my own interpretation of the RMC build (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCQuUwHH45w).

Using mine more as a Supergun than a retro console at the mo

Commodore fan here

Glancing at my pitiful KrakenMiSTer™, I constantly feel humbled by the creativity on show here

Thought I'd post some pics of my Mini ITX Mister build. It's done, but these things are never done Waiting on a better case badge, and I might also add some buttons to the front for osd/reset/user.
The case I used https://www.silverstonetek.com/product. ... 23&area=en is convertible between 2 different sizes by swapping out the top cover and front faceplate. I used the smallest one, which is 63mm tall, and everything just *barely* fits.
The adapter and IO shield are modified and 3d printed from wickedsun's source files: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4738986
I have it setup for analog out as well as HDMI. Due to lack of space, I had to sacrifice two of the available USB ports, so there are only 2 in the back and 2 in the front. That's enough for me though.
I created a simple custom PCB for the LEDs, switches, and the momentary to latching adapter for the power. (I used this switch https://www.pololu.com/product/2808). It was my first attempt at designing a PCB, so I made a few mistakes. It works, but I might do a new version soon.
I think it turned out pretty decent in the end. Looks pretty sleek and modern, and it's nice to finally have it protected and setup with my other consoles instead of bare circuits sitting on a shelf. It's also just amazing to have a working power button

...so if you ever find yourself adding the tty2oled screen ( viewtopic.php?t=1887 )by venice, drop me a PM.

I am prepared to print you the custom bezel that I used here ( one with green box ) - all you pay via PayPal will be postage and packing.

The silver logo I used came from here ( https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/9413302 ... decal-case ).

Cheers.

USB in my opinion.

There has also been a recent update that if you have WiFi in your MiSTer you can do an over the air update if you choose to set that up.

Lovely additon is this screen.

My newest MiSTer build

(gotta update the github with the rest of the stuff I had to do)

EDIT: Going to redesign the screen situation to use a Pimoroni 8" 1024x768 screen most likely, so haven't updated the github in awhile.

Hello! here is my mister case







I'm really proud to fit everything inside this enclosure:

That looks really great! Well done!

What power button are you using? I like it a lot.

It's beautiful jawler, but don't you have thermal issues? The fan has nowhere to exhaust to, or am I seeing things wrong?

I guess you need some glasses. Have a better look.

I have no thermal problems. It has air holes in both sides and the rear fan extracts hot air from inside.

Here is what a MiSTer from a galaxy far, far away might look like...

@mrkai those look amazing, love the worn industrial design.

Im considering getting one of these, any issues youve come across so far?

Cant make my mind up weather to get the SS or VGA version, the SS one would offer an all in one cable for the Video and Audio which is a plus, what advantages is there going the VGA over SS??

"Per the rules" it's not "LucasSpace" unless it looks like someone has been using it. I've made a few of these for myself and others, lol, where there is the *super niche* intersection of MiSTer, Star Wars, and wanting a "prop-like" MiSTer case

The used look was a great idea in Star Wars, sorely missing on my Sphero R2D2. Also the trick to get computer graphics to look realistic.
With so many Star Wars fans there are bound to be a good amount that have a MiSTer (now we need a Star Wars arcade core) and the prop style case certainly is an eye catcher.

The purple stealth case from misteraddons.com:

3D Printed case, Not the final colour, and a few more tweeks to add (internal sata bay for HDD, vga and audio out), but works for me nicely at the moment, can post OpenSCAD files if anyone wants them and try to remember the BOM.... )

@JellyBaby - please do post those files if you are willing to share - excellent build there.

Hello,

what is this system to display on a mini screen "super nintendo" how does it work Please
