    Meh. Another “$OBJECTA inside $OBJECTB” item.

    This is cool though:

    1. In 1985 this wasn’t possible.
    2. Dual purpose: With a good NES emulator installed, you can have every NES game on this little gem and use it to watch King of Kong.
    3. With a little ingenuity you can convert those front controller ports to USB internally. Then you can plug a real NES controller into the front. (see retrousb link for NES to USB adapters.)
    4. Case mods are kewl no matter what you stick your PC into. If it were a transparent plastic Kleenex box it would be no less cool as long as you threw a couple of cold cathode lights inside.

    The NES ports are nice. If only it could also read NES carts, but I don’t think a USB interface exists yet. There’s one for SNES.
