Ahhh the things you do when you're bored.

My partners a childminder so we always have lots of toys and stuff in the house. I saw this electronic game on top of the toy box and couldn't resist doing a quick mod for fun.

I used the brains from a pc keyboard which was a bit of a waste considering i only needed 4 buttons but i just happened to have one ready to go.

I'm pretty amazed at how responsive the buttons are. Not quite on par with arcade buttons but very close :eek:

It took me about an hour to make and I'm having loads of fun with it.

Future plans for this mod

Connect the on/off switch.
Connect the Led's.
Wrap the whole case in wood to give it some weight.
Replace top with acrylic.

Here's a few more Images.









No comments on my timing please
