I know nothing about electronics, but thought it'd be fun to try create a (super simple and extremely terrible) video game console.

I was inspired to start experimenting with this after stumbling across the fascinating videos of @BenEater. If you found this video at all interesting, I'd highly recommend taking a look at his channel for some much more advanced stuff!

If you'd like to help me create more videos, you can support the channel on Patreon over here: https://www.patreon.com/SebastianLague

The source code for this project (console/game scripts + Unity music editor) is probably not of much interest to anyone, but you can take a look here if you want: https://github.com/SebLague/Monster-Console
