f00 f00's iPod runs Doom, controlled by NES controller

What has yours done today? Yeah, maybe you've fiddled around with Linux on your 'Pod, or even got that version of Doom up and running way back when, but you've just got nothing on this hack by f00 f00, which turns an old NES controller into an iPod dock and provides some of the best Doom controls we've seen yet. Yeah, we're jealous too. No word on exactly how f00 f00 pulled this off, but it's not like we'd be able to follow along anyways. Peep the action vid after the break.

That is the sexiest thing I have seen all day.

That's pretty damn cool.

Must be an iPod photo, had the screen replaced, or it is a fake. That gen didn't have color if I remeber correctly.

No, it's an Photo, that's why its color
I've heard of getting serial keyboards to work for inputting text, but this is extreme. This would also work great for iBoy, a Gameboy emulator.

I think the big apple will soon come out with something like that if they come across this video. There's be like a controller expansion or something for the ipod in the future versions. :-p

Dang, at this rate there won't be any NES controllers in the world still intact in five years. Cool hack though.

[whiskey @ Jan 15th 2007 11:25PM]

Here's a howto-maybe... Got himself a cradle with button support, soldered cables to use said buttons with the nes controller...

A-phuqin-MAZING.

Wonder how would you get it to run your cheats or if it does hexen/heretic?
