Hey I want to make a case for my N64P before I get too far. I was wondering how acrylic would work for a case. If not what will work? Thanks for your help.

It should work, but acrylic sucks in general. Brittle, difficult to cut and cracks easily. However, it is clear, which is a plus.

If you want clear, go for PETG. Its high impact polyethylene, and vac forms quite well.

Don't use acrylic. It's just awful.
