Everything wrong with the Nvidia Shield remote can be fixed with this free, 3D printable case

Whether it's a broken battery door from years of abuse by children and cats, the irritatingly easy to press Netflix button, or the complete inability to place the remote flat on a table, this genius Nvidia Shield remote case can be printed at home and has literally no negatives.

Or you can just remap the button to another application, possibly another function.

You know, instead of this stupidity.

He mentions the remapping of buttons if you actually read the article. 😂

I've actually printed one of these in TPU and it's exactly what I've been looking for!

For the record, it's a case...it wasn't created just to cover up a button. If someone doesn't have the knowledge to remap a button on a remote, this is a very quick and cheap solution.

Anyone referring to 3D printing as 'stupidity' has zero sense of creativity or ingenuity. They were originally designed to solve problems and do so for pennies on the dollar.

Is it really though? I've used the Button Mapper app to remap the buttons which doesn't actually work. It works briefly I should say, then later the Netflix button is back in horrifying effect. I understand you have to root the device in order to do this inside the OS which presumably will stick but never took the time to figure out how to do that.
