Turn An NES Controller Into A Night Light

When you need to get up at night, it helps to have a little light so you don’t stumble through the dark. If any light will do, why not make an awesome one out of an old NES controller?

Instructables user lonesoulsurfer decided to do just that with some lights, AAA rechargeable batteries, a solar panel, casting resin and a few other materials. While not the simplest of ways to turn a controller into a night light, you definitely get a pretty awesome product in the end.

Check out the video above for a demonstration of all the different features of the light and the Instructables post for the full how-to guide.
