Retro gamer/DIYer kristopher.hammar got sick of having a messed up gaming area. He regularly plays snes & nes games on his big TV, and everything was fine, except that the extension cables of the gamepads that he uses were all over the place. His solution? USB hub + Mario Kart SNES cartridge = gamepad hub.

And because kristopher.hammar is a good person, he shared his little project at Instructables so that we could all have our SNES cartridge USB hubs.

Someone should make – and sell – this type of retro gaming computer peripherals. I want a GameBoy case for external HDDs.
