Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Enhanced Retroflag NESPi Case+ with Wired USB Gamepads, Cooling Fan, and Heatsinks for RetroPie Raspberry Pi 3/2 Model B and Raspberry Pi 3B+ by Mark Turner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good kit: External components

This was my first attempt at a retro box and the NES design was perfect for it. I like the functional power and reset buttons, but you need to run a script from a terminal for them to work properly and the power LED to light up. Everything went smoothly, there are many YouTube videos of this exact case to install the Raspberry Pi if you need help. ***Caution: Do not overtighten the screws when installing the fan, otherwise 3 white dots will appear on the top of the case where the screw touches the plastic. *** Controllers are the frustrating part of the package. They are cheap and sometimes unresponsive. Too bad I didn't save $10 and bought the kit without the controllers but bought them separately. All in all I can't complain too much as I think the case is worth the price and the addition of a fan and heatsink is a nice bonus.

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Hard to say
