my hacked NES

in gaming •  7 years ago 

I made this like 4 years ago, when i was started to study digital circuits theory in college.

The idea was to interact with the PPU (Picture Prosessor Unit) soldering switches directly to the IO Pins of the chip.

Then i made a few test to prove that i didn't burn anything.

And to finish it, i made holes and installed the switches.

When i finish it, for some reason the switches started to fuck the image even when i turned off, so i had to buy another NES to play my games. But after all it was a funny experiment.
