First off dont get any wrong ideas about this object.
( THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WARES)
I only picked this name for the object because it just sounded right.
A little bonus from me
::::::::::::::::::::::::
When you download this object you will see a folder inside the archive called "NINTENDO EXTRAS" since the sims will have a nintendo themed computer why not you? this folder contains little icons and cursors that you can use on your own computer for your own personal use with instructions on how to use inside.
The mushroom resizer and waluigi typing pointer are not lined up properly but still work and if you choose to use them it will take some getting used to.
( MODERATORS: If you do not want these extras included in the package please inform me before you consider closing this thread and I will remove them on March 10, 2006 3:30-4:30 P.M. after I get off work and replace the .zip with one that doesnt contain the extras. You could simply remove the .zip archive and allow me to upload the one without extras once I get off work.)
::::::::::::::::::::::::
This object contains meshes of ALL THE NES CONSOLES they are as accurate as I could possibly get them. I concentrated on getting them right down to the smallest details ( NES, SNES, N64, GC, REV ).
This unique desk has color shifting glass ( that means it the glass cycles through colours ) It also has an animated scan with a cd sitting on top of ( sort of like something you see inside of a paper scanner )
This object only looks right with the Alienware and the moneywell ( Alienware looking the best ). If you use the little sister unit then one of the wires will stick through the pc screen when it is in the folded down position. I have not tested this with any of the custom created pcs other than the voodoo pc which fit same as the alienware.
I manually looked over every single face and vertice in this mesh and reduced all of them to the absolute minimum without any loss of quality ( this took a long long time )
I also went through the texture several times to get everything to match up correctly ( this was extremely hard because I had to do almost all of this object using only a 256x512 texture because of the way the texture is made recoloration of this object would literally be impossible.
Somehow though I managed to increase the mip map of the animation from a mere 64x64 to a 256x256 ( without the use of dds tools ) I cant remember what I did but I was messing around with it for an hour and because of this the animation looks perfect.
This is a highly detailed MESH.
I tried my best to get every single detail correct.
Poly count:
4740 faces, 3515 vertices
The only problem I encountered with this object is one of the blue wires sticks out into the wall ( doesnt show through the other side though ). If you place it right next to one it looks like two wires one going into the wall and one going out.
I was going to add some special features to this object and release it later but now that Open for business came out I am going to release it now THIS WAY PEOPLE WHO DONT YET HAVE OPEN FOR BUSINESS BUT DO HAVE UNIVERSITY AND NIGHTLIFE WILL BE ABLE TO DOWNLOAD IT.
I was originally planning to release it after modding the behavs to make the desk add stats to the computers when they are placed on them but I never got around to even learning the bhavs and now theres no way for me to release it the way I intended at least for the non open for business expansion people.
I may go back and modify it again.

VERY IMPORTANT:
IF YOUR A MODDER AND WISH TO USE THE NES MESHES TO MAKE THE GAME SYSTEMS PLEASE DO NOT USE THE ONES IN THIS OBJECT. INSTEAD WAIT FOR ME TO UPLOAD THE RESOURCES IN MY free meshes and materials THREAD.
There the system meshes ( the ones you see in the desk ) will be provided along with updated and perfectly accurate uv texture maps, perfect controller meshes for each system ( also uvmapped and textured).

Little know facts about nintendo:
Nintendo has always had the most powerful and most efficient system in each generation of systems. It has practically no load times and the games are smaller in size but have higher quality ( a good example is Resident Evil 2 the nintendo version was about 60 mb vs the playstation version had long load times and took up around 600 mb).
If not for the original nes we would never have had the playstation or xbox.
Video gaming popularity was dying out around the world until the nes was introduced bringing new types of gameplay. Once the nes started getting popular sega made their console (genisses) but nintendo beat it with the snes then playstation jumped into the game (you should know the rest from here on)
Have you ever wondered why super mario brothers 2 (nes title) was not like any of the other mario games?Why you didnt ever see koopas, goombas, piranha plants, and the ever so common item blocks? Are you ready for this.
In japan there was a little game named DOKI DOKI PANIC (famicon disk system title) which had four arabian charactors Mom, Pop, Son, Daughter their mission was to rescue the 2 youngest children of the family from a giant toad (wart). The japanese didnt think this game would work out well in the U.S.A so they decided to change the charactors and some of the items resulting in Americas super mario brothers 2. Because of this decision many of the enemies introduced became a major part of the mario series but would not be seen again until the jumping star thing that appeared in bowsers castle in super mario world (snes title). The real Super mario brothers 2 game was never release in america until the super mario all-stars (snes title) under the name of Super Mario Bros: the lost levels and it featured updated graphics.
Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kongs double trouble
(SNES TITLE)
If you have this game then get your snes out you will want to see this.
At the start of the game go to wrinkleys save cave. Inside you will see a n64 system setting on the floor beside the television, sometimes wrinkley will even be playing it.
Every nintendo console after the nes has had at least one game where mario could revert to his old 8-bit self here is the list.
Super mario RPG (snes title)
Paper mario (n64 title)
paper mario: thousand year door (gc title)
Rumors of luigi in mario 64 eventually lead to luigi wario and yoshi to be playable charactors in the remake on ds. In this game it is also possible to unlock the last of the four brothers: Waluigi. His power ups Instead of caps are sports equipment ( tennis rackets, golf clubs, and baseball bats ). Using tennis rackets he can hit foes from a distance, the golf club has a farther reach. and the baseball bat has the furthest fire distance.
