HyperX Pulsefire Saga - Mouse Entertainment System / Famicur (Family Cursor)

Give your HyperX Pulsefire Saga a radical throwback mod with these custom cases inspired by the golden age of gaming.

I have two editions for you:

Mouse Entertainment System (MES)
Click your way back to 1985 with classic red buttons, black-and-white body, and grey detailing.  Appreciate how far we’ve come – from consoles with 4 KB of RAM to a mouse with a 4K polling rate.

Famicur – Family Cursor edition
After building the Mouse Entertainment System, it only felt right to press on and create the original.  That classic red body with gold-accented styling and all-black buttons give the Famicur a look that feels both vintage and iconic – like it came straight from the cartridge era.

Both versions include optional vinyl-cut decal files to complete the look.  Or you can paint it.

Suggested Print Settings

   Filament: PLA
   Perimeters: 2
   Infill: 10%
   Infill Pattern: Gyroid

Assembly and Installation

All parts are oriented as printed. The front, rear, and top parts require supports.

The rear and side buttons (Button Front and Button Rear) are identical for both the MES and Famicur.  The top parts and buttons differ: the MES has convex top buttons, whilst the Famicur uses concave ones, all for retro accuracy.  The buttons are otherwise the same size and so interchangeable.

The top and front parts include holes for 3mm magnets – three in each part, which should be glued in place.

To assemble the buttons, insert them under the levers from the side, but avoid flexing the levers more than necessary.

You can either paint the parts or cut vinyl using the provided SVG files (scaled to fit).  I used a cutting plotter for the vinyl decals.

2025-07-07 added alternate front for the cabled version of the mouse.
