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 touchesโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Hard to say

Wow wow wow the best computer components

This is the best kit I have ever seen. Great quality, amazing style and retro NES style. So it was to collect EZ. The instructions aren't great, but pretty basic. I would choose this case over any other. Mainly because of the power offset and reset functionality.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Too long to wait

Definitely some good quality considerations, here.

I am absolutely impressed with this. amazed at the care with which the case was made "just right" (no jagged edges or cheap leftovers from a run-down mold at a cheap parts factory, here). Worst of all, the one controller I've used so far doesn't always seem to respond to every action; I'm not sure if it's a controller though. and it's not that I didn't set it up properly. Anyway, I've already ordered one for my PS5 controllers. and I'm happy with the quality so far (still worth every penny)โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • Can be damaged

Great case, just what I expected

I like the instructions a bit better as they list things that previous reviewers said were missing. My Pi is perfect for the occasion and the fan is quiet (other reviewers said their fans are noisy, maybe they changed a part?).

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • 0

Very impressed so far

Okay so it's ready to put it all together while I wait for my 32GB mic I ordered from another site. Very pleased with the details of this case and pleased with the fan upgrade and switchover. There is a second set from another seller, I think it's the best quality for the money, seems well made.

Pros
  • Sequins
Cons
  • Style 90

Very interesting case, I hoped it would work. My first issue was that the fan screws were too wide and required force to tighten, cutting into the case. The bottom screws exposed the top so I had to keep them tightly closed at all times, I think one or two of the holes were misaligned. Then when everything was installed it wouldn't turn on. I tested this case with two Raspberry Pi 3+ with RetroPie installed, two 32GB SD cards with three different USB power supplies (two dedicated wall adaptersโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Many positive emotions
Cons
  • No performance

Nice little device suitable for computer cases

Pay attention to the fan orientation, they don't tell you how to install it and if you put the screws on the opposite side you will damage the top of the device. All in all, the device is a great little project once you've got all the scripts set up.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Some problems
