For most of the mods we see these days, I'm always left wondering why they even bothered. I do realize that many mods are done for the challenge, just to be able to say they pulled it off. But I've got no problems with the Nintoaster. There's just something about it that makes it seem really bad ass.
The
Super Genintari dude is back. People gave him sh*t about his last console, saying it looked like a toaster. He comes back with a console mod that actually uses a toaster. This "Nintoaster" is exactly as it sounds: a NES stuffed inside a toaster. We have to give props for the faux heating element lighting and the "toast" on switch.
Be sure to check the Nintoaster project page at
stupidfingers.com, as it details the construction of this unit in a much more serious way than the video did.
