Debating using a Famicom as motherboard

[Hudson]

So I love to work on CRT tv sets and broken gaming consoles, it gives me joy to resurrect something. I was thinking about modding a spare Famicom board for composite output, pairing it with All Night Nippon (a Tokyo variant of SMB). Pairing it with a 19" NOS consumer CRT and board.

I'd have to figure out just how to connect the new controls to it but its been done by others so I am not worried about that.

I had been debating using one of several vintage computers, TI-99/4, Atari 400, Sinclair ZX-81 or an Opentendo that I'd built. Though I think I'd get the most joy from a modded Famicom.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

The Heart of what Machine? An a Arcade Cab? Why would you want to Play SMB on an Cab? If you said Gun-nac or Recca i would get it but SMB isn't really best paired with Stick and Buttons (I'm aware of the Nintendo Nes Cab's but they're stupid ). Also wouldn't you need to feed RGB to an Arcade Chassis?

In all honesty I'm not sure if i thought too much about your post or you to little

Nope. No need to ask the Internets. Just do what makes you happy and play what you wanna play.

Right on, the only one I've got to please is myself.
