............ what?
Unless you want a case with lego-bumps on the top, no. Just.... NO. I'm all for the childlike novelty of Lego, but come on.

I would be fine with the bumps give the console some texture plus I just tried it then, except as its my first trial i covered it with tape, but i screwed it cos the plastic wasn't hot enough.

Wouldn't it be easier to use wood? It looks like to me the legos would melt if you got the plastic hot enough. But, it would also be cool to have little bumps all over the portable but flat in certain areas like around the buttons and stuff.
