With exception of the Mister, all consoles have either been modded or repaired. Bonus, everything is automated through Home Assistant so it will turn on the TV, switch inputs, and turn on the console, all via voiced controlled.

This was custom. I did the painting and wiring the LEDs, the jewel came from RockerGaming and I themed everything around it. https://www.etsy.com/listing/658194838/legend-of-zelda-master-sword-custom

Nows not a bad time to consider picking one back up if you can find one cheap enough. There's a new ode in development that will be cheaper than the gcloader and requires no soldering. You can get one that no longer reads discs, through that in there and read games off an SD card (or just emulate, nothing wrong with that) https://docs.flippydrive.com/
