It has some issues with the audio having feedback and the sticks drift never got around to fixing that but other then that works perfect. i took inspiration off all the portables i have seen over the years especially the gc ones . I built this off of adafruits super game pi, and added a bunch of stuff i wanted to it and changed alot of the case only the shape is really the same now . hope you guys enjoy my Thicc boi lol

That is indeed a thicc boi. The screws you used are massive as well, why'd you use such big wood screws?

it has to fit the theme of thicc - was to lazy to buy more screws actually, just wanted to put it together and play it lol

Just realized the comparison photo has a old version of my file and not the last version I had printed will fix that after I sleep

Even though it is thick, it looks pretty nice. I like those sticks mounted with the big boy screws too :p

Looks really good! Thicc maybe, but the height and width look appropriate for the size of screen. Good work!
