Crazy Idea for a mod

[jbbenz]

Hi all
Ok so i have officially started to build my NES PC its coming out SICK. I saw a guy on youtube who made the dvd drive in an advance controller which i am planning to attempt. The main and one thing that i wanted to be able to do is make it possible that i can use the NES game cartridges on my PC. meaning to say that i will be able to play the game from the cartridge directly to my computer. the problem is i don't have any experience in programing (i am willing to learn what is necessary) any ideas on how this can be possible?? i saw also on youtube that someone was successful with doing this with a SNES!?!? Please help!!

Lol, can't wait to see it!

There's this guy who made something called the "Retrode".
It does what you need it to!
... For SNES and Genesis games...

But, the dude's design is very, well, cool, and works bloody well.
He's able to make simple adapters for other cartridges!
NES carts would be trivial no doubt, and seeing as how he plans to make new ones, I'm sure he'll end up adding NES support.


That's all I know of, good luck, etc.
