The NEStation
It's Kotomi again, this time with a NES pimped out to look like a PS2. In a weird sort of way we even prefer it to Sony's machine, mainly due to the cool blue glow of the logo. Anyone for a bit of 8-bit Silent Hill?
The Alien PS3
This staggeringly detailed HR Giger styled PS3 case mod was made by hand out of epoxy putty. It was built by Llamma Forums user GivinTats at his friend's request. In retrospect, all of our friends are now talentless and rubbish.
The Game & Watch DS
Yep, Kotomi again. Upon the DS' announcement, many of us whooped with nostalgic joy over its similarities to our old double-screened Game & Watch units. Kotomi however, made the dream a reality with these amazingly accurate case mods. They're so good that upon powering them up we'd actually be disappointed to find them running the LCD classics we still hoard so dearly in our drawers.
The SNES PC
A PC inside a SNES (with working controllers via USB) would in itself be nothing short of amazotron, but to turn the hollowed-out cartridge into a working disc drive? Utterly inspired. Our hats are permanently off to quangDX and DuPPs. Check out their 'making of' page here.
The R2-D2 multi-console
It was George Lucas' conceit that R2-D2 should reveal a new ability in every Star Wars film. With the nine-part saga now curtailed to the current six, we thought we'd never see his other functions. Now we don't need too. Whatever Lucas would have cooked up, it wouldn't have been cooler than running eight consoles simultaneously using internally stacked motherboards, a built-in sound system and a goddamn projector. Having created this makes Brian De Vitis better than George Lucas. Fact.
The Mushroom Castle Nintendo 64
What at first appears to be another gamer wedding cake is in actual fact something much cooler. Lifting the lid as if a marauding King Kong, you'll find a fully functioning Nintendo 64 nestling below. This one was made by a mysterious Ebay seller, and criminally went for less than $100.
The zombie SNES
Don't go thinking that we've decided to round this feature off with an image of what happens when console mods go wrong. Oh no. This zombified SNES is supposed to look like this. Not only does it work perfectly, it can even exude sickly, glowing zombie gas for an eightiestastically ominous horror ambience. For proving once and for all that the glorious 16-bit era will never die, we salute French modder skadrums71.

Clean your console, replace the 72 connector pins, and mod your controllers!
