[Tony] sent in this Nintendo hack. It’s a fully functioning NES with Composite output inside an old school controller. On the back it’s got a cartridge connector, so you can play normal games, there’s a port for a second player/light gun, and for extra bling, the Nintendo logo is backlit. To pull it off, he stuffed a Super Joy III – A.K.A. famiclone inside the controller, did a marathon of soldering for the cartridge connector, and used the now unused controller wires to carry the video and second controller signals.
Yes, this has been around for a while, but I dig it.
Man, this hack is a couple months old, at least!!
Nice… All it needs now is a monitor =P
Ben did this a long time ago this is old news
This is very obvious, but you may too do it.
Im seeing this for the first time and I think its a pretty cool idea.
now try to fit original nes parts inside a controller. thatsa hack i’d pay to see o_o
@steve
Yeah, and make it work every time (unlike the original)
they say that you can now software emulate a sega into a watch sized device… which really just makes me suprised that wasn’t the case here.
Ugh. Guys, this is NOT Ben’s work. I’m a moderator at his forums, and this project was made by a member there. So please, give credit where it’s due, people! :P
The illumiated Nintendo logo looks wicked. Had a go at doing the same thing myself with a SNES cart. Results here:
