Trying to get USB to front NES ports.

darkloud

Hey guys! First post here! I am trying to get 2 standard USB ports to the front of a NES case. As in, I do not want to use the controller ports, but rather mount a single USB port per player slot. As I do not have a 3d printer, I am kind of at a loss at how to mount the ports to the front? Once the controller ports are removed you are left with a large gaping hole.

 

What do you guys think they best thing would be to do to get USB ports mounted to the front?

 

Also do any of you know where to purchase the USB connectors? As in just the metal piece that connects the devices together? I figure it would much more easier to make something to mount with that rather than a preassembled USB cable...

 

Best regards!

  • I'm making a raspberry pi conversion on my NES.  I have a 3d printer, so if you don't end up buying one, let me know in message and I can design one up in Fusion 360 and help you out.
    I just finished a SNES raspberry pi and had to 3d print a lot on that to make it all work.  So, I can understand the frustration of not having on, but wanting to keep the look of the front or back, the same.
