SNES PC Case Mod scores endless style wins; can never bring back your childhood

[wraggster]

Face it, not all mods are created equal. Take this SNES PC Case Mod, for instance, built by quangDX and DuPPs (their real names? we think not). Sure, they could've just crammed some PC guts in there and called it a day, but with love, care and some Lego spacers, they've crafted a true piece of art. The gutted Super Mario World cartridge acts as a slot-loading CD drive, there's a perfect lineup of connectivity in the back, and the real piece of magic: USB extenders disguised as regular controller plugs, and a reworked SNES controller to plug into 'em. The main guts are courtesy of an Acer Aspire One, and even the webcam and mic have been crammed into the front of that poor shredded cartridge. This is how it's done, folks.

Can that CD even spin? It doesn't look to be connected to anything in the center, unless it goes in further than pictured?

I would like to see a video of this in action, it looks interesting. Even with the pictures of the inside.

I wonder if it's possible with the Nintendo 64? Over the past four years, there has been many NES PC modifications and now a SNES PC. Which for the Nintendo consoles that leaves the N64, GameCube and Wii. But I would love to see something done with the handhelds, because I'm sure something could be created from the GBA-SP (which would be awesome).
