Another NES PC Build

I was inspired like many others to create a NES pc build. This actually took me a lot longer than I had anticipated where I went through a couple NES consoles (they were all broken don't worry) but this build I started back in 2017 which is why alot of the components are rather old. I was inspired by ungreedy and other people that had created nes builds however I wanted to make this look clean and mostly unaltered if you were to take a quick glance. I 3D printed most of the parts such as the motherboard tray and rear io ports. (I do have the stl files if anyone wants them). I also used the front controller ports and wired them up to the usb headers on the motherboard so that I could still plug usb devices into it but sadly i could only wire it to be usb 2.0 as there were not enough pins for usb 3.0.

 

Anyways here it is!

This is a super clean and most excellent built! The controller ports as USB ports is a fun idea too, especially with the mouse that you have there. I'm assuming you made that mouse, right? Looks awesome.

 

I would love for you to upload those STL files somewhere too, would be a blast to try my hand at cramming some stuff in an NES one day.

Thanks @catawalks! And no I didn't make the mouse, you can buy it from amazon its made by 8bitdo. I wouldn't recommend it for gaming as the latency is pretty bad but for aestetics its pretty interesting. 

 

You definatly should as its a bunch of fun but yeah I can definately upload the files! The back pannel I would imagine not be very useful depending the hardware you have but the motherboard tray is standard mini itx so would work with all motherboards so the computer could be upgraded later down the road.
