This is my take on a Zaparoo/TapTo NFC card reader for the MiSTer FPGA console. It's designed to mount to the bottom of a MiSTer stack and supports most case setups. Just use 4 M3 x 16mm or so screws to mount it to the bottom of your setup. Or, just have it plugged in and off to the side like a floppy drive. Note: I have removed the Zaparoo logo from this Printables release as the Zaparoo logo is Trademarked and I use it with permission from Wizzo on my commercial sale of the finished case. The public release must have the logo removed. 

 

Print Settings: Print both the Case and rear piece on the print bed as shown in the photos. 

Required Parts: Besides the 2 case pieces, you also need the PN532 NFC board and short USB cable.

Short USB-C to USB-A cable: https://amzn.to/3C29VRS

M3 x 16mm or so screws to mount it to the bottom of your MiSTer.

 

Assembly: To assemble, plugin the USB cable to the NFC board. Take the enclosure and install the NFC board into the rear upside down (smooth bottom of the NFC board facing up). There is a slot in the enclosure right below the card slot for the NFC board to slide into. The rear piece has a cutout for the USB cable to come out of. The tabs on the rear piece lock into the notches on the case. Note the orientation of the tabs to the notches. You may need to use something like a thin card to help install the rear piece. Please see pictures.
