The NES Retro Gaming Computer – Stealth Edition is a NES Console modded with a computer inside to play the old school NES, SNES and N64 games. It runs on Windows XP and loaded with the GameEx emulator automatically after logged in to the Windows.
The project is ’stealth’ because all the connections are the original NES connectors, everything looks genuine and original, even the ports for the controllers are still the same as the original and they are working with the Nintendo controllers too, there is no way to tell that this isn’t a normal NES until you turn it on.
At the inside, you will see mini-itx board the D201GLY2, the controller ports has been wired to the USB at the inside. At the bottom of original Nintendo has an adapter underneath and that adapter has been replaced with a USB hub for the N64 controllers.
