Hardware hackers have always been especially fond of improving video games, and Game
Console Hacking: Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo, Game Boy, Atari & Sega documents the
fun they have dismantling video game consoles, altering them, and putting them back
together. It explains how you can do this yourself and go beneath the casing to invigorate
your console and make perform in ways its designers never imagined. This book lists
the proper tools for proper hacks and explains how to use them properly without electrocuting
yourself or harming the console. It shows you how to modify the casing to make it
aesthetically pleasing, replace batteries in old game cartridges, build a cartridge
for an NES game you write yourself, modify an Atari 2600 joystick for left-handed
players, and more. The book also tackles the more difficult topic of modern consoles
such as the Xbox, Game Boy, and Sega, as well as reverse engineering projects
