compl3x Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 from the site: Nintendo NES controller coffee table. Made from maple, mahogany and walnut with dovetail joinery and mid century modern legs. 42? (~1m) length x 18.25? (~46.5cm) width x 18? (~46cm) height Pretty cool looking table (although those legs look kind of cheap/70's-ish). It has a retractable cord which you can connect to a NES and play games (NES and games not included). Somehow, I imagine playing games would be rather difficult. http://www.etsy.com/listing/96827992/nintendo-controller-coffee-table-maple Jose_49 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dotdot Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 For $3700 it should come with the Nes built in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compl3x Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 For $3700 it should come with the Nes built in. I think maple, mahogany and walnut are pretty expensive woods, so that probably explains the costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McKay Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 How's the NES playing on that modern TV? Didn't it require an analogue cable? not digital? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compl3x Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 How's the NES playing on that modern TV? Didn't it require an analogue cable? not digital? Wasn't it an RF adaptor? That is what I remember on my NES when I was a youngin' :p Ian W 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jamesyfx Subscriber² Posted March 23, 2013 Subscriber² Share Posted March 23, 2013 How's the NES playing on that modern TV? Didn't it require an analogue cable? not digital? Probably has an RF Modulator that'll go from RF to Composite AV. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compl3x Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 Doesn't it create input lag when you add too many adaptors/converters on? *press jump ...Mario jumps on screen* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dotdot Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I think maple, mahogany and walnut are pretty expensive woods, so that probably explains the costs. Your telling me they can`t throw in a $50-$100 system from ebay? **** if your going to charge $3700, why not charge $3800 and be done with it. Not to mention theres a cheaper non-functioning one, so why not just have the more expensive include the Nes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n_K Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 You can modify a NES to output RGB from what I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJerman Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Probably has an RF Modulator that'll go from RF to Composite AV. :p The NES had composite video and mono audio ports on the side of it. I think pretty much all TVs still have composite inputs. Edit: Maybe they didn't ALL have composite. I found some pictures where it looks like there is a blank panel where those connectors were, but at least some models definitely came with composite outputs.

They probably figure if you're a big enough NES nerd to buy a $3700 NES controller table, you probably already have 5 NESes, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadrack Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 My NES (~1988) had composite video output as well as RF adapter. If there were web polls back then I could see one poll being 'Channel 2 or channel 3?' (Or was it 3 and 4? I can't remember.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawkMan Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 They don't include a built in NES because they're not allowed the sell them, pretty obvious when you think about it, outside of all the warranty issues and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
