Make: Online : World's largest SNES controller!

World's largest SNES controller!

Giant Snes Controller-1
Giant Snes Build

Matt LaBoone writes us -

I was inspired by Kyle Downes (creator of the Giant NES coffee table) to make my own SNES Controller. I grew up more on the SNES, and figured that the Left and Right bumpers as well as the curved sides would give me a good challenge. I linked the pictures of the final controller, but I have 3 other posts documenting my progress pictures. I love the MAKE blog btw, I check it daily. I would love to hear everyone elses feedback!

my feedback? - Holy Wow! One could have a seriously intense game of ActRaiser on that! Matt says this beast took all Summer to build - not a long time considering the quality results. - Giant Snes table
