23 Insane Video Gaming Console Mods

Since the first video game Tennis for two, games have exploded and become an integral part of many people’s lives.

Video gaming holds a place in all of our hearts, whether it’s a simple game such as the smash-hit iPhone and Android app Flappy Bird or an immersive first-person shooter or racing game.

We always see a lot of watercooled gaming PCs as well as pc case mods but not many video game console mods, so, I decided to go on the hunt and see what I could come up.

23 Game Console Mods

While some of these are not all strictly game consoles they all serve the same purpose – entertain us when we are bored and have nothing to do.

  • Some of them are so cool, i’d love you do something like that, but would be to worried about taking apart a new console. Won’t be much point doing it to an old gen console

  • I think an old school console would be perfect to mod, they are not as expensive and you dont void your warranty.

    That yellow hardcase SNES is just pure awesome
