    I don’t know that looks like someone with secondhand knowledge of a computer case explained it to the designer.

      Yeah, it’s not perfect. But it’s cute and adds some flair and I’m enjoying it regardless of the exactness of its historical accuracy. Still nicer than another black rectangle under my tv. From 12+ feet away it looks identifiably like “sort of like an old PC case,” which is enough for how cheap it was.

      Agreed. There are verticle cdrom drive designs they could have used to integrate the existing disc input

      You don’t have to, you can just look at this one. It’s a visual experience.

    That’s really awesome for the 10% of gamers who have an Xbox.

        It’s globally around 35% but I’m surprised that it’s 50/50 in the US…

    At this point, why not just get a PC?

    Just put Bazzite on one, hook it up to your TV, and it becomes a console anyway.

      I have an i5 with a 1660Ti hooked up to this same tv. And an i9/4080RTX laptop that I do I lot of gaming on. Also a Steam Deck to the right of the Xbox.

      I just thought it was cute and fun :)
