The Nintendo 64 PC is proof that there is no limit to what you can put a PC into. This case mod created by a modder known as "Polvorito" and functions as an everyday living room computer.
I find the Nintendo 64 PC truly impressive, especially compared to other case modifications. There is limited space to work with when it comes to the Nintendo 64, and Polvorito somehow managed to incorporate the original power and reset buttons into the functionality of the PC. Check it out in the gallery above.
