Nintoaster -- The REAL "toaster" NES! (56K run

vomitsaw · Post by **vomitsaw** » Sat Sep 06, 2008 3:55 pm

Greetings again, fellas! I've got somethin' new to share with ya.
I received plenty of flack for my previous project (the Super Genintari) looking "like a toaster", and as it turned out, I had a spare NES and toaster laying around the house. I knew what had to be done.

And now some progress shots:

I also did a short YouTube demonstration video:

Hope you fellas at least get a chuckle out of it.

Bad ass! How did you come up with this? Also, where does it get it's video from? In the video you plugged two audio cables into it (red and white). Is one of those Video?

Old NES was called "The Toaster" as a nickname due to the way you put the games in it.

Great mod though, sure it'll give a few Benheckers the giggles.

The NES (sans modification) only outputs a mono audio signal, so only one video and one audio cable are necessary. Whether the cable itself is red, white, yellow, pink, blue, translucent doesn't matter. I can understand the initial confusion though. I've had others ask that question too.

Oh I know. That's half of the joke.

I see. Well then, perhaps a moderator could move it?

GAH people on YouTube are STUPID!

YouTard #2 wrote:Won't that ominous glow eventually be the demise of the game cartridge and other parts you have in there? I mean, it's not just a pretty glow that makes the toast. Also once the toaster has sufficiently heated up what it thinks is toast it will shut itself off, right?

The nintoaster has many flaws in my opinion.

That doesn't make the mod (or video) any less awesome, though!

You should have left the little bell in there so it would ding when you turn it off.

Especially like the way to turn on/off the system! Nice! Funny video too.

You seem to like the color orange

! Great job, it seems simple, yet will fit into any room's contemporary style.

That's awesome! Now what someone REALLY needs to do is put a toaster in an NES case.

Easily one my favorite NES mods. And don't bother correcting those idiots on youtube, it's funnier to read their comments.

Ahhh, Youtube commenters are so naive. Great work!

You're quite the comical individual.

Awesome mod as well, very original!
