SNEGENES P Combo Mod Comes with Plenty of Junk in the Trunk
From the front this threesome looks pretty hot. Clear case with bright LEDs, original SNES buttons, and the ability to play three great systems on to go. All great. But what's going on in the back? More » -

Sega Genesis and Saturn Lighters, Or Why Sonic No Longer Runs 5Ks
It's easy to think, hey, America and Japan aren't so different! Then Sega licenses fantastic, official Genesis/Saturn lighters ($114). And I can't even begin to imagine the Truth campaign that would stem from the controversy here. [Net-you via Kotaku] -

The GAME-800: A Fatty Pocket Emulator
The GAME-800 is just another one of those direct from manufacturer PMP all-in-one pocket devices. And maybe it's just because I was a corpulent kid, but I find the design quite charming. More » -

Multi-Platform Universal Console Mod Plays Everything Modularly
This game console mod does things slightly different from older mods we've seen. Instead of taking an old console and shoving it into a smaller body, this guy made a universal body and modularizes consoles—in effect, turning consoles like the N64, NES, Megadrive, Jaguar, GBA, and PlayStation into insertable "cartridges" that can be played on this main unit. He's only got the N64 working (he says it's the hardest one), but will keep working on other systems until he can pretty much play everything made before 1998 on this thing. [Modded By Bacteria] -

Super Genintari 4-in-1 Console Jams Nintendo, SEGA, and Atari
Super Genintari is the latest mega-console mod by Richard DaLuz, a perfect cocktail of Atari 2600, Nintendo Entertainment System, Genesis and Super NES enclosed in a retro-'80s bronze acrylic case, "formed and shaped on a homemade stript heater." It connects to a TV using a single cable, running four games simultaneously, and probably cooks bread with the generated heat—like the video shows after the jump. We talked with Richard about his superconsole mod: More » -

Self-Contained RPG Game Solely in a Mint Tin
If you thought putting your iPod nano in an Altoids tin was impressive, check out what Greg Sanders got inside a Penguin mints tin. It's a self-contained RPG game whose parts all fit inside the tin. All you have to do is plug in a Sega Genesis controller and a TV and you're set. Yes, but does it tell you how old your brain is? [MAKE via Play Gadgets]
