I know nothing about this R2D2 cooler-mod, except that it seems to consist of 8 retro game consoles shoehorned in glorious higgeldy-piggeldy into R2, with a projector.

A woman who appears to have been inebriated fell onto the tracks in a Boston subway as a train was rushing towards her. People on the platform frantically waved at the train, which stopped in the nick of time.... More.

Yves Béhar (who is in an epic struggle with Marc Newson to claim the title of "sexiest industrial designer alive") designed this vibrator. It looks like a Miyazaki cartoon creature.

Michael Jackson's funeral cost one million dollars. His final outfit cost $35,000, and the flowers cost $16,000. Lord. Obviously I'm no MJ anyhow, but when I die, if there's a mil lying around? Feel free to bury me in nekkid dirt and use the rest to feed pie to starving kids.... More.
Isn't R2 a her?
wut.
cest l'awesome.
However, only 7 are inside the unit. Looks like the Dreamcast is on top of the dome!
XBOX, PSX, Genesis, NES, SNES, N64, Dreamcast, but are the black ones on the right Atari 7800 or what?
R2 is most definitely a him.
Ive recently discovered the delights of plugging a 360 contoller into my pc and playing all my old fav's on emulators, but this is one of the most awesome things i have ever seen...
Oh, the projector makes this. r2d2 shaped games cabinet is one thing, but sticking a projector in his head = awesome
DREAMCAST!!!
Whoa... speechless.
Very shexy. I like the way they did the Atari and NES cartridge ports in front (begs a better picture for ports). Epyx 500XJ's for street cred. Curious as to function of the upside-down NES controller in the front with the cord running through it horizontally (volume? power? projector control?) Kinda mixed feeling about the Dreamcast sticking out of the top of R2's dome, though, and makes me wonder where the PS1's at and how it loads.
1. Xbox
2. PS1
3. Genesis
4. SNES
5. NES
