Whenever a new game system comes out, we like to get our hands on one and have benheck take it apart and tell us what juicy goodness is inside. When time permits or inspiration strikes, we like to take those systems and hack them into something new and glorious. Here are some of the console hacks Ben has done over the years:

Sega CDX Portable

Atari Xbox 360

Xbox 360 Disc Changer

Portable Atari 2600

Coin-operated Xbox 360

Xbox 360 Laptop

Slot Loading Nintendo Part 1, Part 2, Part 3

Xbox One Portable Part 1, Part 2, Part 3

Sega Dreamcast Portable Part 1, Part 2, Part 3

Xbox One S Laptop

Portable N64 Part 1, Part 2, Part 3

One of the things Ben is most known for is modding controllers for individuals with disabilities or a physical limitation. Here are some of the controller mods he's done in the past:

Xbox 360 Macro Accessibility Controller

Power Glove Xbox Remote

Single-handed Xbox One Controller

Ben's had a lot of ideas and requests for console and controller hacks. He turns portable systems into consoles and consoles into portables. He's modded controllers to be played in various alternative ways. He's combined multiple systems into one. But there are always more ideas out there. What ultimate console mod can you come up with that Ben hasn't done yet. No system combos. No portable to console or console to portable. Show me your creativity.
