Can you provide us the link to the case and the parts used for your build? That case is AWESOME!!

Yes please provides us with a link. I couldn't find it on Aliexpress. It's almost perfect, I just would want to include the MT32pi

Hello!!! you can buy it here https://www.aliexpress.com/store/911238071
I thought about including the mt32-pi inside the box but I discarded it because of what it occupied and because of the ease of changing the system in the future.
Cheers!

some of these look creative as hell. mine is super bare-bones. i have no case for it yet (i have a translucent one coming in the mail).

Couldn't wait for my MiSTer Multisystem to arrive so I printed this case: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2503438 , and cobbled together some stuff. I had a dollar store 7-port USB hub that I velcro'd underneath the case and filled with a USB WiFi and BlueTooth dongle that luckily both were recognized. The RetroBit Saturn controller that I was using with my Sega Saturn also came with a 2.4GHz USB receiver so I already have a great controller next to a 8BitDo SN30 (via BlueTooth). Still using the 8GB MicroSD that came with the DE10-Nano. I soldered a DC-plug to a broken USB cord and to my surprise it boots and runs the system (and my 9.7" screen) from a cheap HAMA 16000mAh powerbank

Your slim Mister case looks great.

thank you for this link i will be printing a slim case just like this one.

@annette
Thanks
Be aware though that the opening for the 32MB SDRAM didn't line up; I had to file away about a centimeter to make it fit. Easily done because the PLA isn't that tough. There is a thread mentioned on the Thingiverse page that has different versions of this case posted. I liked this one the best because is was the smallest, but not without it's problems. Also make sure you have some small self-tapping screws to close the case with. I got my screws from a broken keyboard that I dismantled. Good luck!

Did this very early lockdown

Looks very nice

Hey,

Love this case

Don’t suppose you have the BOM for the parts you used to put it all together please??

Many thanks

The Mister Series X.

Made with wood.
A bit rough around the edges
And very simple design,with the bare minimum.

Love that Xbox style case, even if you do think it's a bit round around the edges. It's still better than my woodworking skills would be

I really should do something with mine rather than the simple top and bottom panels that I have. Ideal would be a tiny Mini ITX box but whether they're worth the price or not, it's not worth (for me) spending that kind of money on one of these ITX boards that are starting to come out.

I recommend you check this MiSTer Mini ITX Adaptor, I'm thinking whether to use it myself:
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4738986
It even includes the IO shield, and the creator [Wickedsun] lists all the extension cables they used. Wickedsun, if you read this, thank you for this amazing creation.

Pic inside the mini-ITX case. Close the case and it will look nice and tidy.


Edited: I see poster Monoksidec already showed his setup, where he makes good use of the adapter.

Thank you, was just a generic itx case from either ali express or amazon (think it was available on both). Not sure if I am allowed to link stuff but can be easily found with the keywords "itx case aluminium". I drilled out the single power switch plus a few more for the input buttons, and added the led switches. I added in a 3d printed mb tray to hold my mister stack and used breakout cables to two usb sockets built in to the side and to a 3d printed IO shield on the back for more usb, hdmi, power and network. It is just tall enough to fit the usb board/de10nano/mister io board without needing to split them. I wanted a minimal clean design and i think it worked very well. I think a bit of my inspiration was HAL9000 hehe

Here's my setup. It has everything I need. 8BitDo M30, N30 and SN30 2.4GHZ controllers on the controller roller I designed. Not pictured is the 8bitdo arcade stick. All of the receivers are built into the case.

I love the iPad screen.

Such a nice compact design with a power button and Sega Saturn Analog video output!!

Anyone fancy a UK group order?

Not the smallest case

Looks nice and has enough space for more internal hardware (hdd/joystick adpter).
The connector box looks great.

Japan Sanwa Joystick Red JLF-TP-8YT-SK & GT-Y & Harness Video Arcade Parts
Same seller, bought in 2019. You can ask for different profiles of restrictors; I use the octagonal and it works great for practically any game.

I have released MiSTer PLUS model. Thanks to Lu's Retro for the review.
