What I love about this article is it shows NEC/Hudson were always aiming the PC Engine at the hardcore gamer.
You would never see Nintendo or Sega suggesting opening up, soldering or drilling holes in their hardware as you'd invalidate the manufacturers warranty blah, blah...

It's pretty awesome. It's also awesomely ghetto.

Well, women at some point becomes gold diggers, so seeing a man in early 1990's with a portable television ( which I might add became really small during the late 1990's ) would make you look attractive. Nowadays a man who looks like they are hardly working and some what young probably does the same thing for finsters, Alley Mcbeals, and SIC-types.

GT is ten times better then this.

Seconds after the photo was taken the women next to him pounced, unable to resist his awesomeness.

It might have happened. I want to believe it happened.

It did happen.

I was looking in to making one of these myself.

Can't find the monitor to buy anywhere...

People are always Kickstarter-ing stupid shit.

We need to raise some money and get this thing in production!

For fun I wanted to attempt to build one using the same components used in the pictures, but other than the Engine console which I already own I couldn't find the other bits anywhere (I guess that's not surprising considering the age and obscurity of the items).
