The Super Nintoaster: It can't make you a snack but it can play games

on 3/22/09

This is one of the best uses of an Super Nintendo I've seen (besides turning one into a lunchbox). You can actually play games on, one side has the controller port and the other has the cartridge port. But, it can't make you toast so I guess it's only mildly cool.

The Xbox 360 "Arcade"

on 2/11/09
No, I'm not talking about Microsoft's ploy to get the Xbox to compete with the Wii. I'm talking about a full-fledged arcade cabinet with an Xbox 360 inside of it. This retro system is a 1990's midway cabinet modified for an Xbox. Inside of it is a 60gb Xbox 360 with a wifi adapter, and is able to play and 360 game. If you get tired of the retro joysticks and buttons you can always use a wireless controller with it. But, at $2,250 and only a standard definition screen, I wouldn't rush out and by it all that soon.
