Viewer Challenge (Multi-System.....System)

Former Member

Hello, I am young viewer of the show and and challenging Ben Heck to try his abilities and to make a system that can play games from more than one system (ex. PS2, XBOX) but the real challenge is to choose from the examples and to add either DS or PSP capabilities.

  • As far using one drive to read multi-game media...good luck.  There are only four models of drive that will work with the xbox 360, and these have a drivekey that is console-specific.  The wii uses entirely different hardware...IDK if there exists a mod to allow a wii console to use other drives than the nintendo one.

     

    PS3...no effing way.  Has to be a blu-ray, and again, the controller board is matched to the CPU.

     

     

    However...when I first started reading this post...I thought he meant like one console that would play any atari/NES/SNES/N64/etc. cartridges.  Not an emulator...my xbox1 does all this already.

     

    I mean some kind of super hybrid case...like a smartcard reader from hell.  For bonus points, add connectability for the various controllers.

     

    The question would then arise of if it would just be easier to use a PC to do the HW-SW emulation, or go full crazy and get the controller boards for all the old consoles.  Some of them have been re-made to be really small...
