Video: We have found the greatest ever retro Nintendo console and you need to see it

NES + Toast = Greatest thing ever.

Paul Moore

NES + Toast = Greatest thing ever.

If JOE had to breakdown our childhood activities in a measurable percentage then it would probably read like this;

25% sleeping, 25% school, 25% sports, 20% playing the Nintendo, 5% miscellaneous (tip the can, eating food, melting tar with a magnifying glass and teasing our siblings all fall into this category).

The NES console was an absolute institution for Irish people of a certain age and we still have our original Nintendo but we may want to trade it in for this one.

The Nintoaster 2.0 is a retro toaster that has been transformed into an an 8-bit NES console.

This genius devise was created by Finnish artist Jarno Kotavuopio and it’s a fully functioning piece of kit. You probably still need to blow the cartridges though.

We’re in retro heaven after seeing this 1950s-style toaster merged with the classic ’80s console.

Take a look.
