Wall-E, a gamer at heart

Published by Michael at 10:03 pm under Culture, GameCube

Looking surprisingly like the actual star of Pixar animation studio’s Wall-E movie, this little robot actually has the guts of a working GameCube:

First we build a movable platform out of a child toy and a rest of Plexiglas. The Gamecube itself is covered with a thin layer of acrylic which we airbrushed like the original wall-e. The Arms were made out of some plastic and plexiglas tubes and rods. The arms and the hands are both moveable so that wall-e can take up various positions

Considering Pixar’s track record, Wall-E should be a great movie, but what if he could play video games with you? Check after the break for more screens of the cute little guy.
