I don't mind people repurposing old game consoles for their Raspberry Pi projects. It's just that when you take something, often times even fully functional, gut it, use hot glue and the wrong tools to make things "fit" inside and retaining very little of the original design, I start objecting. Even more so when you make the ugliest mess of a soldering job and have wires everywhere, connecting up poorly laid out circuits on protoboard.
