I decided to have a go at this little arts and crafts project..

Well, this was fun to make. It took 6 NES pads, 1 NES Max pad, a clock kit, a duck hunt cart, and some superglue and patience.

I think Ill make another one with those multicolored Super Famicom controller buttons..

Anybody else make one of these? Im interested in seeing the various takes on the idea..

very cool! Where did you get the gears for the clock? is it calibrated correctly?

Its just a simple kit from a craft store, runs off a AA battery, its accurate enough I suppose. I was thinking of painting the hands red perhaps too.

To quote Jim Carrey: "I like it alot!". Much cooler and alot more original than the ambigous Ryu-on-the-horizon clock you see everywhere.

Is that a Bed Bath and Beyond Coupon?

Yeah, why do you need some towels? lol

I think on the next one Ill hunt down a kit that lets you upload a sound from the computer for hourly chimes. NES sampled duck quack for the win!

The dog laugh would be awesome (skin crawling just thinking about it).

That just might be the coolest thing I've seen in a while; ingenius!
