Description
There's a nifty used games store that just opened up near me called Gamedeals. I got to know the proprieter pretty well and he asked me to make a big NES controller for his window display. I say, sure no problem, and two weeks later this is the result. And no, it doesn't actually work to play NES games.It's mostly made of .4cm styrene plastic and balsa wood and held together with acrylic glue. Spray paints and acrylic paints were used for colors. The buttons are foam sheets, styrofoam, and more plastic sheets. The wire thing is an old christmas light thing that I painted black and held together with screws and epoxy paste. The whole thing is covered in two layers of Varathane floor coating and measures 100cm x 43 cm.
I'm also beginning to sell some of my Nintendo trinket sculpey thingys at Gamedeals! If you live around BC, especially in the Burnaby/New West area, go check out their website at [link] It's located right off the Columbia Skytrain.

If there were such a controller of that size, it'd be very difficult to play "Super Mario Bros.", that's for sure...

Very cool! Do realize it'd be quite easy to make that into a working control, if you can get your hands on a normal NES control? It's just a matter of extending connections to buttons, basically. Just some wire and a few switches would do it.

Ooh, niiice. Had I the skillz and materials I'd probably do something large-scale like that... instead I just piddle my time making costumes n'stuff...that's about as crafty as I get, since all the good stuff is rather out of reach and I dun have a credit card to ORDER THINGS ONLINE *insanely jealous of those who can* Nyarr...
Anywho, very cool. Mo' Powah to the Nintendo freaks! *highfive*
