This rugged and portable SNES should be an official part of any gamer's apocalypse kit. This unique gaming system was created by redittor Robotairz, and is meant to be completely self-sustaining. The console is powered by batteries and features a charger. The entire package is contained inside of a shock-proof yellow case.
According to Robotairz, his rugged and portable SNES cost about $425 to create. While the apocalypse isn't likely to come soon (fingers crossed), this portable gaming system would be great for camping trips or even road trips. No gamer should let a lack of power outlets stop them from enjoying classic games such as Star Fox and F-Zero. Here's hoping Robotairz decides to start selling his rugged and portable SNES system. It's not a stretch to assume that gamers are a bit too preoccupied to attempt such an awesome DIY project on their own.
