Yes, tackle boxes can look very good! You did wonderfully! It looks so clean, especially around the start/select buttons. Great work!

Batteries of course! :P At the moment it runs on 4AAA's from cordless phones from goodwill. 800mah I believe. For some reason they drain when the power is off so Im gonna have to take a look at the wiring.

Cool little NESp. Nice to see some more projects being completed. And you are right that case looks pretty good for being a tackle box, nice job on it.

Keep us posted on your next project.
