Retro Fool #2 is here

Just letting it be known that Retro Fool #2 is now ready for action on the blog and will be contributing to all our upcoming projects.

NES Mod, Complete!

 I am 2 weeks late in posting this, but the NES Mod is finally finished.  Putting all of the final pieces together was a bit of an ordeal, because as you are closing the top and bottom together you find small pieces of plastic that prevent the case from fitting snugly and you are trying to modify it without hurting any of the electronics inside.


We glued the piece that holds the cartridge on to the top and it worked well.  A nice touch that I'm sure someone will appreciate it that we cut off the RCA jacks off of the original motherboard and stuck them where they were.  They don't do anything, but it makes it look more original.  Really the only changes from a real NES is the back ports and the wireless antenna in the back.

Below are pictures and a crappily made video on the operation.  All of our goals have been met with this project, it is completely controllable from the NES controller, user friendly and is able to watch Netflix to appease the female contingent of the household.
