SNES Controller becomes self sufficient gaming platform…

ROM’s are a geeks best friend. Today apparently they seem to be a hot topic…

Ever want to carry a library of ROM’s in a convenient, stylish, and portable form factor that you can take with you from computer-to-computer? The SNES controller above had the guts removed and replaced with the contents of a flash drive as well as a USB hub. The results is a controller that houses all the ROM’s you could ever want combined with a single cable allowing you to hook up and play said ROM’s on any computer. Now that is true plug-in-play support gaming on the go. This is of course a proof of concept in that you could make a similar device from any controller from any platform and inject your own ROM’s.

Consider me impressed. *…starts looking for old gaming controllers…*
