About this model

The Nintendo Famicom has been nagging me for almost my whole life with its non-detachable controllers and awkward length of the cord. So here is the solution to scratch that itch. 3D model slicer examples as shown in the pictures for best appearance/structural strength. To keep the original appearance with the controllers, you can replace the long wire from original Famicom controllers with a NES controller extension corder, cut into desired length. 2P microphone pin is populated on an N/C pin, if you want to use it, get a 7-pin zapper extension cord instead (pricier). Full project design files can be found on GitHub: === UPDATE === - Improved 3D model for better insertion experience.
