Vista Powered Super Nintendo

Now this is what I call a serious case mod. Some guy in Japan has taken his old Super Nintendo (known as the Super Famicom over there) and turned it into a Windows PC.

He started off with an MSI Axis 945GM bare-bones system and jigged it to fit into the Super Nintendo’s case. He even relabeled the game cartridge (which houses the hard-drive) to look like it contains the Windows install. Very nice.

Now all he has to do is get a Super Nintendo emulator running on it so that we can play some Donkey Kong Country.
