If you’re one of today’s lucky 10,000* who have never seen a Nintoaster case mod before, boy are we glad you get to see this one first. [Dizzle813] found a shiny old Sunbeam toaster that looks just like the one we grew up with. Although the original creator made a build video, there is room for improvement in the explanation, and some people prefer reading, anyway. This handy guide references and builds upon [VomitSaw]’s original Nintoaster video.
[Dizzle813] really makes the hard parts look easy, and a build like this seems to be mostly hard parts. Unless you find this exact vintage of Sunbeam, you would have to orchestrate the innards as needed to fit your toaster. The hardest part of all is probably wiring up the 72-pin connector to the NES motherboard, but [Dizzle813] managed to pull it off using 22 AWG solid-core wire and still get everything to flex and fit together. Even still, they broke off a pin trying to ease it into the perfboard, but cutting a hole in the connector and inserting a bodge wire replacement worked just fine.
We absolutely love the way this looks and operates, especially with the lever-activated power button and the six orange LEDs inside that are brightness-controlled through the toastiness knob. Be sure to check out the demo after the break.
Isn’t it great when things are built into other things? Case in point: there’s a laptop hiding inside this printer.
How about making a toaster PS1 next!
Vertical slot loading of course!
You’d have to use a bagel toaster.
I did one a while back and its actually more stable than a front loader and top loader
You get to ditch the did connector and the toaster slot keeps the cart from flopping about
You could put a microATX or RPi in one of those and use the obligatory flying toasters screen saver!
i’m sure the sprite chip in the nes is capable of doing flying toasters :)
I’m one of today’s 10,000! That is an awesome concept, I can’t believe I’ve never seen that before.
Have you ever seen the Makitastation?
