Luckily, there is a good handful of players around the world who enjoy making unusual pieces of our favorite consoles. This has been the case of gingerofmods, a Reddit user who has shared its creation based on the first PlayStationbut using the shape of a crab with a very peculiar result.
The call Playstacean This is “a fully functional PSone. Even command works, although it could be the worst command never created,” acknowledges its creator. The tweezers have every half of what a dualshock would be, which could be somewhat uncomfortable, so there is no reason to go through this torture and you can play in the traditional way.
“There is a switch on the back to alternate between the crab control and the port of the player 1, so I can continue using real controls when I do not want to use the tweezers,” says Gingerofmods. Now, how was a strange inspiration for the Sony platform? Everything comes from the artist Anh Dangerouswhich Created Playstacean's original artand the user realized after seeing him that “he had the unique combination of skills and free time to make it come true.”
About two months of work and 3D construction have been necessary to make the project initially modeled in CAD (computer -assisted design). 90% of the necessary tasks consisted of the modeling itself, which was combined with a little welding to have it ready the result. “Learning to do all funny forms was the most difficult,” Gingerofmods acknowledges.
Your next goal? Do something different with a gamecube Nintendo, although for now he has resisted revealing exactly what he has in mind.
