Super Nintoaster Serves a Slice of Retro Gaming

Have you ever taken a look at a Super Nintendo console and pondered the toaster-like slot in the top? Or contemplated an actual toaster, wondering what would happen if you slotted in a game cartridge? Well, so did hacker richdaluz but, unlike all you lazy-bones readers, he did something about it. Behold! The Super Nintoaster.

The mod is a fully functioning Super Nintendo (although it has some glitches playing Super Mario World 2). Sadly it is no longer a fully functioning toaster, but tweaking the doneness control will dim and brighten the six glowing orange LEDs inside so you can pretend you are cooking.

The game carts slide into the toaster slots and, well, the whole thing is just amazing. I’m actually tempted to do this in reverse, turning an old SNES or NES into a real, working toaster. That might just be because I missed this morning’s breakfast, though, and my belly is currently rumbling like Bowser’s.
