NES Hack – DIY “Android” NES Controller!

Posted on September 3, 2010 by max

This guy has hacked an NES controller with Arduino and bluetooth module so he can use it “wirelessly” with his HTC Evo 4G. Pretty cool hack! He even demonstrates the hacked NES controller working with NES emulator, priceless.

See video of it in action after the jump!

Since I’m using an EVO with HTC Sense I can’t use a Wii Remote (they horked the bluetooth stack). This is a project I did using an Arduino and a Bluesmirf bluetooth module so I could control my NES emulator on my EVO with an NES controller. I picked up the connector and controll

TokyoFlash, one of our partners in crime, has just launched Kisai Escape C Bluetooth watch, it’s a watch that was designed as a result of crowd-sourcing through their customers, fans, and trendsetters.

Bluetooth Hack – How to Make a Steampunk Bluetooth Headset!

Posted on February 26, 2009 by max

I have never been a fan of bluetooth headsets (yet) due to the undiscovered side effects (that most consumers don’t know about) but if you must, I highly suggest reading up on how to make a Steampunk bluetooth headset.

Last halloween I dressed up in an old fashioned manor with my cell phone in a pocket keychain. The chain was too short for the phone to reach my ear. This left me with the option of un-hook the phone every time I had to use it, make a unreasonable long c
