Ryan McFarland has a habit of turning junkyard trash into useful stuff. His latest creation is the NES gamepad optical mouse mod.

sadffffff is an unknown quantity at this point
cool!

now what i'd like to see: the dpad moves the mouse around the screen the A and B buttons are left and right click. and the start and select are assignable buttons (like volume up and down, or internet/program shortcuts) - maybe 'start brings up the start menu?!
