Richard DaLuz is a got damned genius.

It has long been my desire to make a toaster out of an original Nintendo Entertainment System unit. Lift the flap, stick in a bagel, get back a golden-browned canvas of cinnamon and raisin with which to paint creamy cheesy art. And long have friends explained to me that such a device would most likely burn down everything I own.
Richard DaLuz, at stupidfingers.com, has done the exact opposite and put a NES inside of a toaster. As a fully functional unit, the left slot takes games, the right takes controllers, and the toast lever turns it on and off. When turned on, the inside glows orange, as if I were about to receive breakfast, rather than 8-bit goodness. The AC adapter is integrated into the unit, so that the toaster’s regular power-cord does the job. A/V jacks are also subtly hidden in the rear.
If you’re reading this at post time, the culinary console is up for auction with a day left on eBay. It’s times like this I wish I had "stupid" money.

If I’ve held your attention this long, I’d recommend checking out the man’s YouTube page, where you can see his Frankenstein creations in action.

Sasha Kenzan Re: The Nintoaster Super Mario 3 in a toaster scares me, especially since I can't find my cart of it. |
