Neon - Do you mean Cold Cathode?

Sounds like a cool plan. I had an N64. It had the best games (ocarina of time, Goldeneye 007, etc.). Also, I think it would be neat to go with a Mini-ITX mobo and a 1U PSU.

P.S.- Do a Sketchup to give a representation :D. I'd like to see it.

I would put other old consoles in it too, like a Gamecube, SNES and NES. That would be cool. Maybe even a PS2 and an XBox if you want to stray from Nintendo.

Yea,I agree with D_stilgar,make a mega system :D ,just not to the point where its going to cave in from wait :D but yea that sounds really cool either way!you can get some cold cathodes at www.xoxide.com , you can get 2 12inch cathodes of any color for like 6 bucks or so,and you can even make them sound activated,so you can say on and obviously,itll turn on.the thing is though youll need a adapter if your not going to put a computer in it that goes from AC to molex.And like progbuddy said,do a sketchup for us :D

how would i go about doing a sketch up. cause i have looked at how you guys all do that but i am not sure what to use in order to make one.
i do like the multisystem idea but it will be had to incorperate all nintendo stuff due to the size. but i am keepin that idea in my head. in a few weeks we are also gonna do a xbox with 2 way mirrors but thats in teh future( of a few weeks)
ir eally appreciate that website you gave me cause i cant ever find anyware to order my junk from.

no prob,if i had all the systems you had i could draw you up something to look at as an idea,but all i have is a n64,ps1 (newer version) and a ps2 (older version),an xbox 360,and i beleive thats it.maybe i can get somehardware dimensions and exterior veiws.What exactly would you want to put in to this mod?what consoles?

Omg Yoshi's forum is still up. Wonder if he still even posts. Ahh the good old TSS days. Good find d_stilgar

There where actually a couple of special custom n64 released like a pokemon one I think. Will be interesting to see what you do with it.

If you browse that site, they have video tutorials so you can learn. It's not as complicated as you might think. You can basically just follow along with what he's doing in the video. It's a very simple, yet powerful tool.
