Ben Heck crafts Atari-styled Xbox-360, takes us back to the ’70s

Our man Ben Heck has done it again — this time, he’s taken modding to a brand new, retro level. Atari requested that Heck create a modded system as a promo for its new games, so our man teamed up with element14 and did what he does best. The master of mods has gutted an Xbox 360 and shoved it right into a one-of-a-kind Atari 2600-esque case that he calls ‘Xbox 360 1977 Edition.’ The system’s got switches from old Atari systems had that control disc-ejection and controller synchronization. Like the classic Ataris, Heck’s portable gaming laptop’s got wood panels and a black finish — and it’s huge. An appropriate portion of this mod? Well, playing Street Fighter on Xbox 360 hidden within what will be a latest version of a classic like Atari is pretty cool, in our opinion. As cool a classic just like the Virtual Boy though? We’ll leave that for you decide . Oh, and be sure you hit the source link to look at the mod get formed in 23 glorious minutes.
