OpenTendo VS morphogenesis-resources

This is the kinda console you'd just salvage for parts or to make an OpenTendo. In the same way you might buy a junky C64 in the hopes that you can salvage working SID or CIA.

https://github.com/Redherring32/OpenTendo This is the actual GitHub where you can find the documentation but if you Google or search on YouTube for “opentendo” you’ll find a lot more information on it as well

It's an open source project called open-tendo https://github.com/Redherring32/OpenTendo

I'd love a few things! I need a beat to hell NES that I can guilt-free scavenge the CPU and PPU from so I can build my own NES fron scratch using the OpenTendo project.

I think PCBs themselves are easier. There's a few projects that recreate the PCB for the NES, but require you to transfer working chips from a real NES. It's getting the actual chips that's harder to manufacture in smaller quantities. Definetly helps preserve the working actual consoles.

It should be possible. There is something like this for the NES in the form of the OpenTendo. However since some of the components are no longer in production you'd need to salvage them from original hardware as of now. That being said there are people actually recreating old hardware like furrtek does for the NeoGeo.

I am getting the parts together to build an Opentendo (https://github.com/Redherring32/OpenTendo/)

But if you're looking for more involved and complicated generation methods, you'll have to dig deeper and see what you like.

Here's a nice collection of tons of different approaches and methods to procedurally generate stuff: https://github.com/jasonwebb/morphogenesis-resources
