14 console and PC mods you'll wish you owned

The NEStation

It's again, 🐷this time with a NES pimped out to look like a PS2. In a weird sort of way we even prefer it to Sony's machine, mainly due to the cool 𓄧blue glow of the logo. Anyone for a bit of ?

The Alien PS3

This staggeringly detailed HR Giger styled PS3 case mod was made by hand out of epoxy putty. It was built by Llamma Forums user at his friend's requ🍃est. In retrospect, all of our friends are now talentless and rubbish.

again. Upon the DS' announcement, many of us whooped 𒁏with nostalgic joy over its similarities to our old double-screened Game & Watch units. Kotomi however, made the dream a reality with these amazingly accurate case mods. They're so good that upon powering them up we'd actually be disappointed to find them running the LCD classics we still hoard so dearly in our drawers.

The SNES PC

A PC inside a SNES (with working controll꧋ers via USB) would in itself be nothing short of amazotron, but to turn the hollowed-out cartridge into a working disc drive? Utterly inspired. Our hats are permanently off to quangDX an💖d DuPPs. Check out their 'making of' page .

The R2-D2 multi-console

It was George Lucas' conceit that R2-D2 should reveal a new ability in every Star Wars film. With the nine-part saga now curtailed to the current six, we thought we'd never see his other functions. Now we don't need too. Whatever Lucas would have cooked up, it wouldn't have been cooler than running eight consoles simultaneously using internally stacked motherboards, a built-in sound system and a goddamn projector. Having created this makes Brian Deꩵ Vitis better than George Lucas. Fact.

The Mushroom Castle Nintendo 64

What at first appears to be 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:another gamer wedding cake is in actual fact something much cooler. Lifting the lid as if a marauding King Kong, you'll find a fully functioning Nintendo 64 nes🍨tling below. This one was made by a myst𝔉erious Ebay seller, and criminally went for less than $100.

The zombie SNES

Don't go thinking that we've decided to round this feature off with an image of what happens when console mods go wrong. Oh no. This zombified SNES is supposed to look like this. Not only does it work perfectly, it can even exude sickly, glowing zombie gas for an eightiestastically ominous horror ambience. For proving once and for all that the glorious 16-bit era will never die, we salute French modder skadrums๊71.

Clean your console, replace the 72 connector pins, and mod your controllers!

Long-time GR+ writer Dave has been gaming with immense dedication ever since he failed dismally at some '80s arcade racer on a childhood day at the seaside (due to being too small to reach the controls without help). These days he's an enigmatic blend of beard-stroking narrative discussion and hard-hitting Psycho Crushers.
