Um, how exactally do we know that this is authentic? He could just have someone off screen playing it, or even a recorded video that hes impersonating.
SHOW ME THE PROOF!!!!

Splinter, he screws up in the last few seconds of the video, and tries hitting B to jump instead of A (since they're labelled 1 and 2). If this was a fake, he wouldn't have screwed up like that. The controls were very tight too.

What kind of system is he playing on? It looks like a small, cheap knockoff of the Xbox to me. Then I noticed he has a Gamecube there, but I'm presuming just because the screen mounts on to it and possibly gets its power from it.

It saddens me that someone would take apart such a collectible thing, and mod it only to play NES games.
:'( I believe this mod IS authentic, but it's completely pointless. -.-

@ Sol Knightt
I agree. This is the kind of mod I would do (and may do) to a real Wiimote, but I'd never destroy a collectible like this. I just ordered a TV Wiimote a few days ago too.
Now, one thing I do plan on doing is modding a virtual console controller to play SNES games. That baby looks comfortable!
