Any lug will get beat up with the lug key, the finish is fairly durable. I was going to get Fortune Autos Titanium Lugs, but at $21.50 per lug nut I decided against it.

Still a work in progress, just gotta do some cleanup work! I actually swapped the innards of that aftermarket USB NES controller in the pic to the original NES controller I have for more authenticity. I’ll get more pics tomorrow when I get it cosmetically sound. Original POWER/RESET and LED all intact and working. I just removed the click-lock mechanism from the power switch to make it momentary and cut the etch that tied the LED to the power switch. 70" of Super Mario 3 will be enjoyed tomorrow.

Love the Nintendo computer, those APU processors from AMD are actually pretty good. I have an HTPC setup with one of those. Works pretty good and it doesn’t need a fan, just a heatsink.

FYI that Ram fails over time from my experience, both machines I’ve had it in and all 4 sticks have failed. Seems odd that all of it failed on me too, but it did, will never buy from that manufacture again. I bought the AMD 4gb Ram for $20 a pop

Weird, the RAM gets 5 star reviews on Newegg. If it fails, I’ll replace it with GSkill or something. I just wanted something with heatsinks due to how tight I have this setup. This particular board has a fan on the APU from the factory, I will likely overclock so it’s a necessity. :lol I added 2 other fans on the front for good measure, its working great for right now.

All internal. The PSU is a 160w flexATX from some fossilized Gateway I scored out of a dumpster. I bought a brand new mATX 150W and I gutted it, but it didn’t work – :rofl that’s what I get for not checking it before cutting metal.

I cut out the AC adapter area in the back to accept a standard 3 prong computer PSU cord receptacle. All items are stashed inside the NES completely.
