BEST CONSOLE MODS and other WTFs --- #8

Vsauce, good to see you all here! A few weeks ago, I saw it in your sleep submitted a great Fallout 3 glitch, and by great I mean booty shaken. I was so inspired, I decided to cover some more bauce video game WTFs.

First off, Fallout New Vegas, where right off the bat this guy likes to get creepy. In Madden NFL 11, you can get hit in the nuts. Where's the ball, you ask? This guy has magic ball returning nuts. The only thing more fun is playing basketball topless, but be careful where you blow things up or you might get this.

And be careful when you cheat in Portal. This guy tried third person and wound up with a gun in the butt. Don't worry, he changed it to a crowbar!

Now, mashups! Here's one you'll love: Pokémon in Fallout New Vegas. Apparently, they'll just follow you around and fight on your side. Now what's this guy riding through San Andreas? A scooter? A Segway? No, no, no! Sonic the Hedgehog!

But my favorite combination is Super Mario World meeting Portal. Now, Mario doesn't get a portal gun, but he can use what's there, and just like the original, it's all very puzzle-based. Brown water kills you, and the cute little turret guys are bullet bills.

By the way, a Reddit user pretty much won the internet last week with these mirrors modded with backlights to look like real-life portals.

Now, consider some console and PC mods. A few are just cosmetic, like alligator skin with an eyeball, others are microwave PCs complete with an ins inside a microwave desktop wallpaper. But if you're scared of the radiation, just warm up with a toaster instead—a working super ninja toaster!

We've all seen the massive NES tabletop controller, but thinking smaller, here's an NES game playing inside the cartridge itself.

But let's say you own a Dreamcast, a Nintendo 64, an Xbox, an Atari 2600, a Sega Saturn, an NES, an SNES, and a PlayStation. How do you organize them all? Easy! Inside the ultimate gaming machine: R2-D2!

You can turn any website into a Katamari Fun Zone by copy and pasting the JavaScript code in this video's description into your browser's URL bar. It works best in Chrome, but when you press enter, you will be able to use your mouse to move around a ball that picks up items on the page and grows larger. The bigger it gets, the larger the objects it can pick up.

Before we leave, what modifications would you want for your own system? A PS3 that cooks you bacon? An Xbox that you can make out with? Take to the prom? Leave your ideas in the comments below!

And once you have, go check out my new episode of Boaty on Vsauce 2, where I show you the world's biggest holes. Click right here for that. And as always, thanks for [Music] watching!
