This was an empty official Snes Classic case I purchased on ebay from someone who was parting it out for unknown reasons. Which was exactly what I was looking for. No Snes Classic hardware was harmed during the filming of this project.
My brothers and I always played Street Fighter when it first released on SNES. Until we got the game gear which ultimately broke our brotherhood bcuz I cheated too too much with that thing, they hated me! Lol, i’m glad you called it Game Genie because that’s how I remember the name, not by game gear. Thanks for the memories! Nice mod.
I love this build! I am a huge fan of aesthetics, and love pi3 mods of licensed classic systems versus look alike pi cases. I am working on a similar build on a SNES Classic case, and was wondering how you re-purposed the working start/select from the original board?
This is cool. I'd have to find a broken classic or just the case like you. NFC is interesting. Thanks for sharing, you have a subscriber. I have a couple of pi sitting around I want to work on with my daughter.
I actually worked on that already I have the footage just need to edit it I put a Zelda remix song on mine and it sounds pretty good its actually playing on my snes in the background on my super Mario odyssey 64 video...
I know this video is 5years old and I hope you see this comment. Ive got a raspberry pi 3 and a PN532 nfc reader. Im trying to get a setup like this without any case. Any advice on where to start or what code you used to get yours working? Im having a really hard time trying to figure this out. Thanks in advance.
Hi, just wondered what NFC reader you used? Interesting that the reader can lay flat and still pick up the cartridge which slides vertically. Well done cool stuff!
This is what Nintendo should have done from the beginning. They could have had the games that the original have in a "SNES mini collection 1" cartridge and later released cartridges with 10 games or so in different collections.
What exactly are on the NFC chips? Do they hold entire roms, save states, or do they hold shell scripts telling the pi to boot the game? Cool idea, by the way!
Simular but some of the components are diffrent and the assembly is quite a bit different. Daft uses a 3d printed case and in this video im using a official snes classic case. But Daftmike does great qaulity work!
8 Bit Flashback oh ok ! I understand now ! Thanks for your reply ! And by the way, do you expect to do the same with the european Super Nintendo version ? Amazing job !
Is there more of that empty case on eBay? because I would like to build my own SNES classic mini. Or is there also a Famicom case? Plus where did you get the game ROMs?
I'm sorry. I actually meant to ask If you had any formal education that helped you with these projects. I am pretty close in skill with the Pi to most of the youtubers that discuss it. It's just that this was the first time that I've seen anyone do anything like this on TH-cam and it made me realize how much I need to work on in terms of my hardware modding skills. Actually I haven't seen anyone do something like this since I watched this video. It's freaking cool. Usually people just stop at "Snes looking case" and call it a day.
Oh btw...people who have issue with downloading roms...how is it any more illegal than buying a game 2nd hand. The games company still doesn't get any revenue. Think about it. Even Nintendo must think the same otherwise youtube would be a very empty place right now :)
I am speechless. You know the konami kode unlocks a secret menu on that game. Wow i would like to own a system like that one and learn how to built it. Mahn the game Genie Lol. Have you tried putting actual game genie codes on it?
No it does not read cartridges if i put a real snes game in there it wont fit this is false info in the title lol all good.. i prefer a modded snes classic much better than pi besides its official nintendo case and controllers and hardware :) the hacked games even RUN on the provided emulator like the stock games making it pretty much all official nintendo no matter the game..

very important no hardware was harmed. WWSNESC would be allllllll over it
GOD same guy was selling the snes computer board too im not sure why he was parting it out but it worked out well for me.
I'll take 1 for $15.00
You made me laugh when you pulled out the game genie cartridge. You have done a lot of work to make this as authentic as possible. Good job man.
grimmah1978 thank you
Snes classic and mod it :) much prettier more authentic and waaay less work..
This is incredible!!!
Thank you
This is cool as hell !! You are a mad genius !
Thank you
My brothers and I always played Street Fighter when it first released on SNES. Until we got the game gear which ultimately broke our brotherhood bcuz I cheated too too much with that thing, they hated me! Lol, i’m glad you called it Game Genie because that’s how I remember the name, not by game gear. Thanks for the memories! Nice mod.
I was just casually watching your video and saw that you used my splash and gave credit haha. That was very unexpected, thanks.
Your welcome. Its a nice intro!
(By Nintendo) Classic Case + Raspberry Pi =
Real Classic Mini Ever!!!
I've watched this before. It's a very impressive mod, and I feel you on not wanting to mutilate the original case. Very cool, man!
Thanks man
Bravo! Really good job you did. Cheers, M
Mark D thank you
I'm genuinely impressed with the nfc part, I didn't realise that was even possible. Brilliant stuff :)
Paul Bennett thank u
i think the games are in the sd card and nfc tags have information on what game to load from the sd card.
I love this build! I am a huge fan of aesthetics, and love pi3 mods of licensed classic systems versus look alike pi cases. I am working on a similar build on a SNES Classic case, and was wondering how you re-purposed the working start/select from the original board?
Cool gimmick. your channel is really underrated.
This is cool. I'd have to find a broken classic or just the case like you. NFC is interesting. Thanks for sharing, you have a subscriber. I have a couple of pi sitting around I want to work on with my daughter.
I rarely say the words "that's so cute!" unless I'm referring to a puppy, but I just said them.
Can you make a tutorial on how to change the background music on the snes classic
I actually worked on that already I have the footage just need to edit it I put a Zelda remix song on mine and it sounds pretty good its actually playing on my snes in the background on my super Mario odyssey 64 video...
8 Bit Flashback Awesome thanks
Awesome video 👍
You are a genius
Random person: man i wish the snes classic had more functionality
8 bit flashback: hold my beer
Hi! Can you tell me where I can learn how to build this cartridge system using NFC? is very difficult? I really wish I could do that!
I know this video is 5years old and I hope you see this comment. Ive got a raspberry pi 3 and a PN532 nfc reader. Im trying to get a setup like this without any case. Any advice on where to start or what code you used to get yours working? Im having a really hard time trying to figure this out. Thanks in advance.
Do you do these mod settings for fans? If so then I'd like to talk to you about making a moded set for me
How do I program the nfc reader to work? I’m using a raspberry pi 3 without any case at the moment and the nfc module.
Hi, just wondered what NFC reader you used? Interesting that the reader can lay flat and still pick up the cartridge which slides vertically. Well done cool stuff!
there is a link to megabit store in description where you can buy these parts and more.
This is what Nintendo should have done from the beginning. They could have had the games that the original have in a "SNES mini collection 1" cartridge and later released cartridges with 10 games or so in different collections.
Wow that's awesome
Could you do an episode on which usb controllers you recommend? Most retailers I know sell low quality ones
Ps classic controller
Muito bom e nostálgico usar cartuchos. Vejo que eles ainda não tem um encaixe perfeito. Falta isso
What exactly are on the NFC chips? Do they hold entire roms, save states, or do they hold shell scripts telling the pi to boot the game? Cool idea, by the way!
How did you make the cartridges?
3d printer
Just put my preorder in for the new 8bitdo wireless controllers for my snes. Only $25
nice
GREAT WORK! May I ask where you downloaded the image from?
Omar Brito the image i used is customized . But checkout arcade punks for simular ones.
How much would you charge to make one of these for me ?
Is it the same done by Daftmike ?
Simular but some of the components are diffrent and the assembly is quite a bit different. Daft uses a 3d printed case and in this video im using a official snes classic case. But Daftmike does great qaulity work!
8 Bit Flashback oh ok ! I understand now ! Thanks for your reply ! And by the way, do you expect to do the same with the european Super Nintendo version ?
Amazing job !
thanks. I don't have a euro version at the moment but I might just 3d print one in the future it would assemble pretty much the same on the inside.
That would be great ! I think you would have a lot of success with that version too !
I would be the first one to purchase it ! :-)
Usted es un artista
How much I love to have one
Hi there, that's amazing, what you can do with retro pie. I want you're snes mini classic pie edition. lol 😁 👍 👍 👍
thank you
Cool
Looks like you need to install a fan and some heatsinks
Jet_Jaguar81 it has a fan actually
8 Bit Flashback you have a heat problem. I see the small thermometer in the corner of your screen.
Jet_Jaguar81 I just unhooked the fan during video because it's loud during filming. It's the same setup I used in the megabit nespi case.
Great work but I would hate to butcher a SNES Classic because they are still fairly hard to come by in stores.
He said that he found someone selling just the case and used that. The SNES Classic Edition he bought is intact.
Is there more of that empty case on eBay? because I would like to build my own SNES classic mini. Or is there also a Famicom case? Plus where did you get the game ROMs?
How did you learn to do things like this? I am interested in learning but have no idea where to go or who to talk to.
just google it man.
Google is your best friend, you wouldn't believe how simple some of this stuff is.
Keenan star with buying a pi 3 case then just google or use youtube to figure out the steps.
I'm sorry. I actually meant to ask If you had any formal education that helped you with these projects. I am pretty close in skill with the Pi to most of the youtubers that discuss it. It's just that this was the first time that I've seen anyone do anything like this on TH-cam and it made me realize how much I need to work on in terms of my hardware modding skills. Actually I haven't seen anyone do something like this since I watched this video. It's freaking cool. Usually people just stop at "Snes looking case" and call it a day.
thank u. No formal education i just have always liked to tinker with stuff since i was a little kid .
that Genie! haha! fantastic!
thanks man .. your shirt fit ok ? hopefully I don't have you mixed up with someone else lol?
love the shirt and the videos!
Haha too cool, man!
WoW respect
How much for one bro
if I make a case of the super farmicom with the board odroid xu 4 I buy
I would really like to own one
Where do I buy this case?
As he said an ebay seller was selling it for unknown reasons so it will be hard to find just a case.
Are dose real cartrages
T C S Tube they are 3D printed cartridges that are functional
Game gene for super nintendo is like lock on tehnology for nintendo
8 bit flashback does what nintendont
Nice!
Cool, wish I had all the free time you have!
no free time here all work lol..am also a full-time contractor.
Oh btw...people who have issue with downloading roms...how is it any more illegal than buying a game 2nd hand. The games company still doesn't get any revenue. Think about it. Even Nintendo must think the same otherwise youtube would be a very empty place right now :)
Do you make use for people or you just review what you make
A hot knife that's designed to cut plastic will save u some time
I am speechless. You know the konami kode unlocks a secret menu on that game. Wow i would like to own a system like that one and learn how to built it. Mahn the game Genie Lol. Have you tried putting actual game genie codes on it?
👍👍
Can you make me one please. I have money in hand for your knowledge and time
Yes you 🏴☠️ your games F to nintendo
Give me one pls
No it does not read cartridges if i put a real snes game in there it wont fit this is false info in the title lol all good.. i prefer a modded snes classic much better than pi besides its official nintendo case and controllers and hardware :) the hacked games even RUN on the provided emulator like the stock games making it pretty much all official nintendo no matter the game..
Shut Up And Take My Money!
Nintendo is Sleep on you & slipping on the Products THEY should’ve Produced! #snesminigamegenie #DEAD
why would you ruin that with a pi3? you could just hack it to put more games on it? seems counter productive
James Weeks obviously you made a comment without even watching the video. IT WAS A EMPTY CASE!
Pi can do much more than the classic.
