Review on Retroflag NESPi Case+ Plus: Power Button With Safe Shutdown, Cooling Fan & Heatsinks For RetroPie Raspberry Pi 3/2 Model B & 3B+ by Jason Gopinath

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Mostly happy, Less-then-Stellar Install

Pros:The case is well constructed with nice materials. The setup of the power/reset buttons is easy if you're familiar with using the terminal in Linux/RetroPie. Instructions with the kit are sparse, but their link to Gibhub has more in-depth information on the script.Cons:This particular package includes a fan to be installed in the upper case shell. The screws that were supplied for the fan install are too long and bottom out in the screwhole just as the fan is secured down. This results in the plastic showing white stress marks and dimples on the top of an otherwise flawless case. Very disappointing.This is my second retro gaming system, but my first with this case. Overall I'm happy, but the stress marks remove a star.
