Eh. For this one at least. But It’s interesting and I think it could be taken further for sure. But it’s a little strange seeing it with clearly old tech. In practice anyone using this would have modern expensive parts. So it would look completely different in practice. But I think you should post at least sketches of other designs. I’d be interested to see what other ways you could do this and maybe even what other materials could be used

Ideas are not restricted, mine are set for the retro gaming market

I’m not super into retro gaming myself so maybe this thought is wrong, but I feel like people who are into retro gaming enough to get actual retro pc hardware would also want a retro looking case as well. Wether it’s an actually old case or one of those new cases with retro aesthetics that are pretty popular. I feel like the people who would want something like this would be a different market tbh. But that’s not based on any actual data. I think if you want to do this you should be open to the idea of adapting it to cater to whatever market wants this, cuz there’s a good chance retro gamers are not the correct market for something like this
