I am finally done! I have spent about a month working on this and am now done. So if you don't know what a NES PC is, i will tell you. Its where you take an old Nintendo Entertainment System and hollow it out, turning it into a computer. I found a motherboard that would fit so i went for it. here is my brief description of how i put it together...
here is a close up of the front. Notice when its on, the original red LED lights up! The missing port will be fixed as soon as i get it sent to me.
Here is my NES pc logged on to edgegamers.us!
When you open the cartridge port you see a friendly old game of Mario bros/duck hunt. the first game released for Nintendo.
But after further inspection, you see it is a Laptop DVD drive!
Now here is a 360 view of it. all four sides, i wanted to keep it in its original state so it looked like an authentic NES. Here you see my custom MIC and Headphone/Speaker ports.
Here is the back, as you can see, VGA and power port. I use a laptop style power brick to power it.
Left side is plain, untouched.
The bottom is modified. I had to hack out the raised section so it would all fit. I also put that vent hole because it tends to get hot.
Now i know you are all wondering "where are the USB and LAN ports?" well they are hidden under these black covers.
Here is the front USB ports, hidden and uncovered.
Now what you have been waiting for, the beast opened up!!
Here i took a laptop Hard Drive (100 gb) and a laptop DVD drive taped them together and used Velcro to attach it to the top of the case. on the right side you see 2 fans, my power supply and the USB ports.
Here is the motherboard. I had to put it in upside down so it would fit. you can see my hack job cables with black tape lol...
here is just a better view of it from the front.
As you can see i can play Mario with the original controller!
And last but not least, i plug in my gamecube controller with a special adapter and play smash brothers on it!!!
