Title: New project SNESpc
Post by: ccmathome on February 27, 2010, 05:24:18 pm
No Snes's were harmed in the making of this project

Using a mini itx board with a 330 cpu trying to keep it looking as much like a snes as I can, can use any original snes controller and a/v plug front led turns on with power laptop hdd in a snes cartridge going to make a label for the cartridge.

This looks interesting. But if I were you I would eliminate that power supply cable hanging over the cartridge area.

Whats the aim of this project? I'm guessing its similar to the NES>DC projects and you are going to run a SNES emu from a PC in a SNES shell?

Shame your not using a sexy PAL SNES than the ugly NTSC one  ;D

Agreed.  I never understood why Nintendo sent a different shell to the US.

Cool project, but judging by the gutted case and pile of SNES shavings, I'd say some definite harm was done!  :cheers:
