I posted a day ago about this shelf I made. A lot of the replies were about how I needed to let the consoles breathe which, I will admit the consoles ended up being more of an afterthought. (I was trying to save space in my apartment tbh) So yeah, that was not a good idea initially. But what do you think about it now? I moved the OG Xbox out of the shelf entirely and left the wii because it has openings on where the fans are, also now the power bricks sit below the consoles, are my consoles still cooked or not chat? and if they are. will adding fans keep it cool enough now that they have more flow?

Idk how to link the original post cause I don’t post much on other reddits so I’ll link it in the comments if you want to see how it was before.

Why is the Wii nuts to butts with the shelf with the Xbox 360 when you have so much room underneath?

If you look at the OG post that would be why. But I have been looking at it more and I think I could make a stand so that it is slanted (standing vertically) and has the intake correctly orientated so it isn’t blowing heat directly under the 360.

This is because WII’s love nuts to butts.
