NES-Style Raspberry Pi 5 Case w/ Heatsink & Fans

You know what’s better than a Raspberry Pi 5? A Raspberry Pi 5 that looks like it stepped out of your childhood NES closet.
Enter the Geeek Pi NES-style case — under $20, packed with a heatsink, fans, and enough thermal pads to soothe your Pi’s post-workout soreness. It’s sleek, retro-futuristic, and somehow makes your $35 computer feel like a collector’s item. Bonus: it even comes with a rear power button… which, let’s be honest, no one ever uses. (We all just yank the plug like it’s 1998.)
The case says it’s only for Pi 5s, but we’re pretty sure a Pi 4 could sneak in too — if it’s willing to risk the fan connector drama. And that mysterious front hole? Still unconfirmed. Alien communication port? Dust trap? Secret snack compartment? We may never know.
What we do know: it’s functional, affordable, and gorgeous. Pair it with a right-angle USB-C cable (because cables that stick out like awkward elbows are a crime), slap on your favorite OS, and suddenly your living room looks like it’s hosting the 1987 Nintendo World Championships.
TL;DR: If you love retro vibes and don’t want your Pi to look like a lab experiment — this case is your new best friend.
