How Crazy Am I

you won't get far, let alone complete it, because you are an retard

>>4169726
How so? Just house it near the plastic and drill holes for ports or some shit

>>4169720
It's doable in theory, but why?

>>4169730
Idk. I think it would be really neat to not only have a working NES but also multiple emulators and games with it. Kinda like one of those Pi NES cases but its functional. Adds some nostalgia value

>>4169729
because first of all your logic is weird. fix it, but then put an emulator in there. if you fix it, why put an emulator in there. if you put a gay pi in there, why fix it. and if your logic is so off base right from the start, it doesn't bode well for the project in general, you will be following wrong paths, changing your mind etc. if you have done anything similar to this already you would have worked out those kinks in your thinking

>>4169748
Idk I think it would be cool, that's basically the logic. That way I could have a custom NES console that plays cartridges and other games like SNES or Genesis

>>4169756
how would the two be integrated? what would happen if you tried to use both at the same time?

>>4169775
Whatever TV input is on is what's running. Im not planning on doing any sautering. Just run a power source out of the NES casing

>>4169787
lol, imposter

It seems like you've got it figured out. Some tips:
Boil your 72 pin connector.
Try not to drill holes
Lose the metal shielding inside the NES if you're hurting for space.

I think it's a cool idea. Don't let these guys discourage you.

Thanks!

>>4169720
Please don't destroy a historical machine for your little project. Just buy a pi case and out place the pi next to the nes. I guarantee you will lose the motivation to fuck up the nes as that setup will work just fine.
In the end you will even be glad you have a nes in good condition.

>>4169720
But if you do post pics so we have new gore thread material

>>4169756
I'm not really understanding the logic at all. If you're emulating the SNES and Genesis, why bother with the real NES? Why not just use the Pi for everything? You can't use the NES controller for SNES or Genesis games, and I'm fairly certain there's no way to like wire the NES controller to both the NES and the Pi.

I just don't really get what the point is. If they're going to use different inputs, power sources, and controllers, and one is going to require carts and the other isn't, why put the Pi inside the NES? It'd make more sense if you just wanted to use the NES outer case as a casing for the Pi without the NES guts still inside, but what you're doing is basically just duct taping a Pi to an NES.

I'm not trying to put you down, I just genuinely don't get what you're trying to do.

There's literally so many out there that are "For Parts" that just need a pin cleaning. Im not desecrating a historical machine. Simply upgrading it,
>>4169854
Will do

>>4169886
It's literally just because it's cool lmao. Im not going for effiency

>>4169891
You're not getting anywhere with this project.

That's such a lame idea, why bother

>>4169850
>historical machine
Oh God, this bullshit. Your little toy box will never be revered as a work of art worth preserving for the benefit of mankind. Get over it. Your collection isn't historical for shit. Your cartridges will become useless commercial pieces of plastic soon enough anyway.

>>4169720
hey, give it a whirl, it will either be a success or a learning experience, win/win

Sigh... and to think you killed a thread for this trash...

>>4169720
Use a famicom instead, OP. Smaller housing, better visual design. They sell long-cord usb famicom controller knockoffs as well.

*puts on sunglasses*
Hey guys, Im a... RETRO gamer...

*boots up NES* yeah, it works...
*switches to raspberry pi*

I got it all.

Fucking normies need to stop cannibalizing perfectly fine consoles and sticking Raspberry Pi's in them.

If you continue this project please make sure to order a broken NES or just order the shell itself. I don't like seeing limited hardware going to waste.

>>4169720
Ignore the haters here, OP. They will be jealous of all the Reddit gold you will get.

>>4169720
Don't destroy a real system that someone could be using just for you stupid reddit project.

>>4170037
>muh art

>>4169720
I think you got us confused, or people are retarded. You are keeping the original NES, in working condition, and then putting a Raspi inside too?

>>4169735
I like it. It is like an artisanal NES like the designer stuff on esty. Make a couple prototypes and sell them to fund the project, it will pay for itself.

>>4169720
What a stupid idea

>Lose the metal shielding inside the NES if you're hurting for space.
Reminder that doing this can result in 20 year prison sentence when the FCC come calling.
