That was positively absurd. There was zero reason to cut any of the wires that he cut, and also zero reason to clip the housing on the NES... Aside from that, a basic amount of applied logic would illustrate how these components will not merely fit together if you swap the housings.
I can guess that this guy has never head of calipers, or a ruler, or a piece of string. Clearly he also didn't bother to open the bleedin' controller housings to examine the wire colours internally (e.g. on the controller PCBs). I suppose he'd need a hack saw and a chisel to achieve that anyhow, given that he pried open a NES without the appropriate bit. Simply, complete rubbish, in all aspects. I also don't desire to see clips of some random person futzing with his kids.
In fact, no part of what he did is in any way 'normal 'for this type of work: It's a perfect illustration on both why the uninitiated should not start console mods of any kind, and why people shouldn't make random YouTue videos of themselves, as it merely makes you look like a complete tool.
'
That's right: You saw it here first!' ...Indeed, we certainly have.
