ok, here goes... i was thinking that it would be a wicked cool idea to put a computer inside the case of the n64. re-wire the controller plugs on the front of the n64 to go to a usb port on the mobo, etc....the only problem is that the 64 is kinda small.....

i was looking at a nano-atx mobo, but it is 400 simoleans...wah wah wah...

if anyone has any ideas for this project just put them down, i dont care...maybe someone with some money will see it and actually do it!!! wouldnt that be cool :)

later

the problem with mini itx i think would be the dimensions...the 64 is kinda small and stuff, but i dont know...i should probably measure it, huh??? also, does anyone know what kind of driver will take out the screws on the bottom of a n64??? they are really goofy.

also, i was thinking of making the puter a dsl (http://www.damnsmalllinux.org) machine...
then use one of their mobos that are fanless, and use a memory card for the hd...no moving parts, less power, less heat.....oooohhhhhhhh yeaaaaaaa.
