Yep, those Natami cases are nasty.  They should win hands down in an ugly competition.  They need someone with some design experience to design a real case.

I'd like this one:

What we\'re witnessing is the sad, lonely crowing of that last, doomed cock.

I allways liked the Amiga Fantasy design, and there was one of the MMC designs that was really nice, the one that doesnt come with the monitor together.

By the way, have you seen the Natami ones? I am not very confortable with them!

Personally speaking, I always enjoyed the look of the A3000 desktop case.


Too retro for me!
Life begins at 100 MIPS!


Nice Ports on AmiNet!

That mcc case certainly looks the business...

But was it a pre or post-Xbox? design :-)

These days it's pretty easy to get custom cases made up - there are so many place in China who'll bend over backwards for custom. The hard-yards are in the design and CAD phases..

The Xbox was released on November 15, 2001 and the Amiga MCC dates back to 1999/2000. So it was first.

It's very difficult to please everyone and usually you'll have mixed reactions.
When I designed the Minimig (Amiga) and the 1541U cases (for the C64)

some people didn't like them until they started playing with them and saw the massive amount of work that had gone in creating such things.

Anyway I'll soon be showing my latest design (the case for the SAM/Natami) so keep an eye on this site ;-)

The black Minimig limited edition is really beautifull! Congrats on the design!

Thanks...I have been working on a silver edition with engraved logo but at the moment the case for the SAM/Natami has taken priority...it can't wait any longer otherwise it'll become vapourware! :-)
