Just saw a wooden SNES

by Ludwig Kietzmann on Dec 17th 2007 8:30PM

And we thought you'd might like to see it too. TechEBlog has featured one of the strangest things to come out of the woodwork in a while -- one SNES squeezed into a somewhat portable wooden case and outfitted with speakers, a PSOne screen and a headphone jack. If you lumber past the break, you'll spot a video depicting the veneer-able Nintendo system in all its barrel-rolling glory.

Pretty awesome, now I want to see a Dreamcast made out of ice...

LOL

i get voted down for that? bah. maybe if he'd been playing a game i didn't abhor...

You get double votes down for that.

Original Starfox is the shiznite.

that is absolutely amazingly awesome.

That's cool! Sorta like this Wooden Wii

Photo-chop FTW.

Hope that thing doesn't overheat.

And that is why you don't make a 360 or PS3 out of wood.

That's pretty damn cool. I wonder how it's powered... I'd think that it would have a pretty bad battery life, but I couldn't see an AC adapter either.

Do a barrel roll!

How many Joystiq readers also read Engadget? I saw this today and I became confused. "Did I just travel back in time? Can I see the future? Oh... this is Joystiq.."

Nonetheless, this is a very cool mod. I wonder how natural the L and R buttons are to press, seeing how they are on the back.

I felt totally the same way man. I was like woah! this is totally like a week ago! Then I thought.. damn this information age is crazy fast. A week is old news.. woah

LOL, you guys arn't the only one i felt the same way, and was still confused until you mentioned engadget... haha

I can't even concentrate on the subject. That pun-y (I'm hipocritical; so-k) title is way too freakin' distracting.

On a role with the puns, dude. Are you gear-ing up for the continuation of our battle?

Oh yes, I wooden miss it for the world.

It comes with a woodpecker installed

I wanted to do this with my girlfriends SNES. Not so much a handheld mod but just to replace the ageing case with a nice wooden slab.

aside from the fact that i dont like where the volume and start/select buttons are, this is full of the highest amounts of epic win!! and i just (finally) finished my nes mod too...

Does it float?

Of course it floats!
Will it blend? Or would you have to use a wood chopper.

If it floats, it might weigh the same as a duck. Therefore... this thing is a WITCH! Burn her!

I see you got better, Ludwig.

I was afraid you'd be stuck as a newt forever.

wood is the new white, just wait and see

orange is the new pink, and black is the new white

Actually, wood is the OLD white.

Every damn electronic device created in the 70's had a fake wood grain finish. It was disgusting. And if you left most of them out in the sun for extended periods (like the life of the product), the glue would liquify and seep through to the top, making the damn things super sticky.

I'll take white plastic over faux wood grain, thanks.
