NES Case Mod Wars: Zelda vs Mega Man

October 28, 2013 By ausretrogamer

There is no doubting the nostalgic factor of the Nintendo Entertainment System (or more accurately and affectionately known as the NES).

Some of us even go so far as to morph the grey shoe-box into their favourite gaming franchise. A befitting tribute indeed. The backlit Zelda and Mega Man modifications on these NES cases are one of the best I have seen in a while. Check them out.

Don’t have a Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) to get your nostalgic hit? Don’t stress, you can go straight to the Nintendo8.com site and play all your favourite Nintendo 8-bit games right on your browser!

I know some will say that it is not like the real thing, but hey, not all of us are inclined to own all the old consoles. So go ahead and enjoy some 8-bit action.
