Console TV

Post by Nightmare »

Ive had this idea for along time, just never done it.

It would be pretty cool to get a modern console and a tv set and intergrate them both.

The disc drive could be on top or on the side in a nice casing.

The controller ports at the bottom of the tv set so the wiring stays out of the way, the console would be hooked up internally to one of the AV inputs, and the power would be split from the tv power.

Simple, but leet! :lol:

Yeah!

Ive messed with so many monitors/tvs, luckily never got shocked.

Sometimes my mate would give me a monitor or tv but the state of them would be bad when i get them off him so i would gut the monitor, clean the casing and put it all back in..

Well once he gave me a OLD style 32" tv, DAMN the tube was heavy as hell to take out and even worse to put back in but i did it! :P

Killer volts - Children be careful! :P

it would be pretty sweet though, it would be like one of those tv/vcr things. it would also be cool to have wireless controllers and hide everything, and be able to turn it on with a remote

Actually there are DVD players which have a nes emulator built in you just burn a cd with roms on it and pop it into the dvd player.

There is a old version which was like a psx and played vcd and nes games.

Here is a TV with builtin nes (was made for hotel rooms)

Don't forget there was a snes tv

and also a megadrive PC

was a 486 pc which let u plug megadrive games into it to play them (was to seperate boards the pc didn't interconnect to the megadrive)

There has been a lot of these things throughout the years.

Japan is more known for these combo things you could try searching on yahoo japan for this kinda stuff.
