If you prefer video game consoles that look like common kitchen appliances (here's looking at you, PS3), have we got a treat for you -- BenHeck.com contributor Vomitsaw recently put the final loving touches on his Super Nintoaster project, which, as the portmanteau-sensitive among you have probably already discerned, is a Super Nintendo. Inside of a toaster. It's safer than it sounds (we think).
It's actually Vomitsaw's second toaster-based console mod -- he crafted a regular ol' Nintoaster last fall. Sadly, neither model has been able to fulfill its kitchen appliance destiny, and won't do much to conflagrate your bread. It's probably for the best -- all it takes is one mistaken slot, and you've got a golden brown, formerly priceless copy of Chrono Trigger, which we hear is actually pretty delicious with raspberry preserves.
VERY nice. It's too bad that it doesn't support S-Video like the original, as that affords you a much clearer image and you bypass the whole dot crawl issue that composite has.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe he also modifed the SNES to use component AV cables instead of an RF cable. Very impressive SNES mod overall. If only it could still make toast though...
Component cables would be red, blue and green in color. (Composite = Red, White & Yellow.) That would be just for the video signal, and he'd have to include some composite audio jacks for the sound.
