The NES would look like this.

Spanish digital artist Javier Segovia’s reimagined NES render, named reNESED, is cool in it’s simplicity. It’s more about the color choices than reinventing videogaming’s wheel. Ironically, unless you count the wirelessness, there don’t seem to be any ergonomic improvements to the controller. ¡Ay mis manos!

    its kind of weak to be honest. it still looks like it came out of the 80s, especially all those corners on the controllers.

    Yes, i concur big sir. That’s what i like about it, that it’s like new-retro. Like i said, it doesn’t change anything, and is very simple. But the appeal of it comes from its slight modernization, a result of the thing being glossy, and the light being blue.

    I do like the “wireless” design that he has feeding into the controllers.
