The PC, Xbox, PS2, GameCube and 2600, Together at Last

The Screen Savers have a story on their website about the building of a single box 2600/PS2/GameCube/Xbox/PC/ NES player. But this is not a mame ^? box. The builder, Yoshi, dismantled, cut,chopped and belt-sanded the consoles to make them all fit in the same Lian-76 case. I can only imagine how hot this case might get. There is a photo album here. It looks like you'd still need a video switcher to take advantage of this completely. A cool mod for this would be to pack in a wintv card for each console or something.

1. Capable of being borne or carried; easily transported; conveyed without difficulty; as, a portable bed, desk, engine. --South.

2. Possible to be endured; supportable. [Obs.]

How light and portable my pain seems now! --Shak.

having multiple TVs and multiple consoles sure does keep all my friends happy when they visit

I guess it's for those of us who like to be in the same room with out friends when they visit.

...Xbox, PS2, GameCube and 2600...

One of these things is not like the other, one of these things just dosn't belong.

If someone posts a story on Slashdot, and nobody says "What's the Point?", was that story actually posted?

Re:to minimise box clutter

I bet they bought all the pieces-parts online from PayPal vendors.... and used a TechTV MasterCard!

WTG Yoshi, now can you make one for me? Oh, throw in a Colecovision too please.

You mean "XCube Station 2"
