Here’s something I’ve been working on sporadically for several months.



My cousin found a broken Super Famicom for cheap so I gutted it and stuck a PC in it. The chassis is small and even after using a dremel to remove most of the internal plastic it’s still an incredibly tight fit.



Rather than cutting a massive hole in the back for an I/O shield I decided to keep things clean and use the device’s original output ports to place a power button/power adapter jack/HDMI. I’m using a cheap USB hub to route two ports to the front, hot glued to the original controller port slot. There’s a 64GB SSD hidden under the motherboard, and a 64GB flash drive for additional storage stuck into one of the USB ports. Power supply is a pico PSU with external power brick.



It’s got an i3-6100 and 16GB DDR4, and I’ll have to see how things go in terms of heat. Might have to remove the cartridge slot door at the top and replace it with mesh.



As far as I know it’s pretty rare to make computers out of this console, so extra hipster points for me.
