Description
I'm not sure why I got the craving to use Sketchup to draw out a Nintendo Entertainment System at work... but it sure brought back some pleasant memories doing so.A co-worker walked by and glanced at it and said, "Wow man, nice microwave."
... Lest we forget folks, lest we forget.
This crazy contraption was an integral part of my childhood and hopefully yours too.

Nice co-worker you have, what he serious?

You should buy yourself one and experience some vintage goodness.
I guess having it mistaken for a microwave wasn't so bad, considering my boss thought it was an architectural building.

Everytime I got the flutes, I had the habit of going to world 4. Seeing everything in ginormous mode was just too hilarious no matter how many times I played it.
Anyways, keep on microwavin'
Thanks for the comment.

That looks like a very accurate representation of that ole' classic NES. Nice.
I myself never owned one but I still learned to love the games and dislike the maintence of the cartridges (breath in/breath out).

You never owned one? OH MAH GAWD.
Cartridge maintenance was my favorite. You had to train the blow technique masterfully so that you wouldn't accidentally get saliva in the cartridge. The sexual innuendo behind that comment is so wrong.

I'd let it cook my games anyday.
Kids these days... =/ All they know is their fancy Xbox which will merge with Sega to form Sex-box and Playstations which will merge with Nintendos to form Gayboystando.

I really like the design of this.
Is it 3D work? I know you said you used Sketchup but I never heard of that

Thanks for droppin a comment.
Sketchup is kind of an obscure program if you aren't in Architecture. It's meant to quickly transform 2d drawings and ideas into general 3d massings and whatnot.
Anyways, while it is easy to pick up, it's a pretty primitive program in terms of the fact that you have to lathe 2 circles just to be able to draw a sphere.

<3 the NES. Lest we forget indeed!
And you did that in Sketchup? Very nice work! I've only messed with sketchup on a few different occasions... >.>
But yes, Very nice!

Thanks, thanks.
It was actually my first time messing with sketchup too. Kind of fun for just throwing down intuitive 3d models I suppose.
