   Would all the system parts be on at once? If so it would use alot of power and make alot of heat 🙁

      Looking at the image closely, it seems there’s power and eject buttons for each console, and one “select” button. So I suppose you could have them all on at once, and then toggle between them with the select button, or you could just have whichever one you want to use on by itself.

      There’s 3 power buttons in the pic each labelled for a different machine. So I’d guess not.

   It just sounds easier to build a PC and create an emulator.

   But by all means, Ben Heck has done a lot of awesome stuff.

      It may sound easier…. but if it were then that’s probably what would have been done…..

      Let me know when you’ve got a cycle-accurate PS3 emulator up and running 😉

      Interestingly, emulation *should* in theory be a lot easier this coming generation, with the unanimous adoption of the x86 architecture. There is still a big challenge in breaking through the DRM and I/O protocols, but the underlying instructions themselves won’t have to be emulated, which will give a large boost in speed.

      Easier to emulate an Xbox 360 and PS3?

      Given the overhead involved in emulating moderately powerful CPUs and Graphics chipsets, I wouldn’t expect this to be feasible any time soon with available computing power. Hell they don’t even have the previous generation (Wii aside) down pat yet.

   How is this any different to having 3 consoles stacked on top of each other?

   That thing is huge.. I’ve never really been a big fan of Ben Heck.. His hacks are like those a 16 year old would do in their parents house..

   Put some real work in, figure out the most efficient way to fit all the circuits in as efficient an area as possible, factor in effective power solutions and cooling, and put it in something you wouldn’t feel ashamed to try and sell to someone else… Or atleast innovate SOMETHING. Next thing we will be honoring someone who superglues the three and a powerboard and cable management strip together as an infamous hacker..
