Step 11What I learned
This project taught me a lot. I'm not sure if I'll be doing this the same way if I ever try another one of these. If I do, I will definitely take the TV apart. That way it will not stick out of the sides.
One thing I learned is to be very careful when testing systems to make sure no parts are touching each other, unless they are supposed to. R.I.P. - Super Nintendo ... hopefully I can fix you.
Another thing I learned is to make sure everything is unplugged BEFORE you stick your hands inside.
***I will add a new step for my finishing touches whenever I get a chance to make them***
My cousin asked me if I could make something like this for him. I think I will put all of the systems inside a computer case next time. He has a much bigger LCD TV than I do, so it would be harder to make that look like an old TV/monitor. But we'll just have to wait and see.
Also, if anyone wants some old system cases or parts, you can have my leftovers. I did not throw them away, so please take them off of my hands if you want anything.

The most common PS1 backup playing method I've heard of was to put it in the drive, run it, then swap it with a backup before the BIOS screen goes away...
It's a hit-and-miss thing, though... And my directions are extremely vague, so you'll have to look it up for yourself...
And yes, it is a hit-and-miss thing. There were times when I got so tired of trying that once the game was working, I no longer wanted to play it. Later on I figured out how to do the disc-swap a little bit easier. I bet I have forgotten the timing now...
Here is the layout:
NES - Top Left
SNES - Top Middle
N64 - Right Side
PS1 - Right Side
Gamecube - Right Side
Xbox - Left Side
The right side seems a little crowded, but the Xbox components take up a lot of room on the inside of the left side.
