The afternoon projects thread

I loved them both. I think the sequel was just a little better, though -- as a sequel to an already awesome game, it had big shoes to fill, but it did so admirably, and more.

When I was little, I tore off the label of my Pokemon Yellow. So today I was bored, and did this..

It's not great, but I was sick of looking at a blank cartridge.
I want this.
Can you send me the file for this label. :awesome:
 
Just did this in 5 minutes because I was bored. The shooping took me longer than the mod. :XD:


Are you tired of regular Nintendo 64 controllers? Of course you are! They are, quite possibly, the most visually displeasing things on planet earth!

Even babies hate them!

Fortunately, I made my N64 controller look uber-cool, with nothing more than an LED and a drill!

Do the people approve?

Well, there you have it! :awesome:
 
The controller was already open on my desk, and I had a red 3mm LED laying around, so yes. 5 minutes.

Edit- I have a 3mm green LED, a 3mm blue LED, and 4 small yellowish-white SMT LED's. I also have the back half of a jungle green controller. What will this become...? :awesome:
 
great... Now I'm going to have nightmares about homicidal N64 controllers...
 
Earlier today I was Segaing about not having a TV for testing things in the garage. I know I had a 13" TV with only RF input. I also know I could buy an RF modulator for $7 or so at the thrift store.

The obvious solution, of course, was to make or mod an RF modulator. I selected the Genesis one that I had already opened once or twice. It took me an hour or so, but I modded it into an RF modulator with RCA jacks. Currently battery powered, because I couldn't find a suitable AC adaptor.
 
pics or it didnt happen. (im just posting that because its obligatory, not because im really dying for pics)
 
It's really easy. I took the RF modulator out of my Genisis 1. It's really small, runs on 5v, and can take composite and mono sound and convert it to RF.
 
In honour of myself, my boredom and abiliy to make lines with a sharpie;
