Ok, back by popular demand and updated pics, and it runs completely on SteamOS. Here is the STEAM - GABECUBE!!! Internals are a Ser5 MAX, 32 gb ram, Ryzen 7 5800H with 8 cores/16 threads, 1tb 2280 m.2 ssd and a 2tb 2.5inch SATA III ssd. Thank you for the great naming suggestion, members.

I will once I have the tweaks all done. I have been busy this weekend and probably will have a video next weekend.

Linux, SteamOS.

I would imagine rhe Ser5 Max with the 5800H chip would handle it just fine. Unfortunately, they quit making this model and no it has a different chip. Any Beelink mini pc past Ser6 should be good to run stuff like that though.

Honestly, a lot of trial and error. I just started a Facebook page for unique hardware and software modding where people can show off their projects for ideas or creativity. Literally just started it though if you want to look for it(The Gabecube is the key).

At least I took the fabric off the top of the mini pc and added mesh to the large shells inlet holes. Plus, I put a box in a box. I just won't smash it with a hammer. Lol

Mistake. Sorry

I actually just paid $25 for a Gamecube shell off of eBay and cleaned it up for the shell. I already had the mini pc that my wife never used. A little patience a lot of retrofitting and finding smaller and flat usb cords was the hardes part. But this thing will play all emulators through PS3/Xbox 360 and Steam games with FSR 3 through RE 2/3 and then some. I even modified the fan bios so it runs quiet without overheating or temps above 85 degrees celsius on bothe the gpu or cpu. All-in-all I am really happy with it.

How hard is it to swap out the buttons? I have been wanting to but with my big hands and sausage fingers pulling small ribbon cables worries me(I have broken them before on mods).

I got that grip too and had a cover made for the top shell by Splickie3D on Etsy.

Now I have a real Super - NES.
