Mac Mini NES

Borrowing some of the NES’s retro looks, the Mac Mini NES is one of the coolest mods we’ve seen. Underneath the shell you’ll find a fully functional Mac Mini, DVD-Writer, and IDE to USB 2.0 circuitry. The power button turns off the Mini (or puts it in sleep mode), reset ejects the DVD tray, and both controller ports have an integrated circuit which allows any NES peripheral to be plugged in/used with emulators. More pics after the jump…

Check out the article and more pics....

As a kid who grew up with NES, I appreciate this a lot. How cool is that! I still remember being 4 years old and playing Knockout and Mario 1 on NES!
