New DrunkenNES Breathalyzer Video Game

Posted Image

I'm sure many of you remember the days of blowing on the 8-Bit Nintendo cartridges in order to make them work? Well, so does Batsly Adams, a 26 year old electrical engineer who is also a NES hacker/modder. He created the DrunkenNES, an interesting titled breathalyzer video game whose results depend on how blasted you are!

Batsly cobbled an alcohol sensor and an Arduino microcontroller board into a plastic NES cartridge shell, which uses an NES communications driver to feed your blood alcohol level (BAC) to the custom-made game as you exhale.

You can get six results based on your reading: sober, getting started, buzzed, tipsy, drunk, and wasted. Afterward, the true BAC level is shown; if it's high enough, you make it onto the high-score list. The last drunken fool standing wins!

Check out the video of the DrunkenNES in action below:
