Hey, I developed a small system using a brain wave headset, and a Raspberry pi mini computer to replace the NES controller. It plugs into the NES and I can play all NES games with just my mind. Its rather simple and fun, although I find the Mario games much more difficult now. Hypothetically this should also work on SNES, Sega, PS1, and any other gaming systems that do not use too many buttons. It would not work on any games as complex as those from the N64. My question, am I just an odd person who likes doing odd things, or would others want to try this too? I was thinking of replicating it and using kickstarter to distribute the equipment. For the system the cost would be about $200. Is that too much considering it would enable players to experience all of their old games in a very different way? Tell me your thoughts. Thanks

First comment is by someone taking this seriously. If this was true, this guy would be wt a patent office securing millions $$$

There is no source of you making this new innovation, so Ill assuming you're trolling.

The you tube video is a good idea, Ill make one soon. Sadly this isnt something you can patent. It is just using tech already out there. Nothing new about it.

Although I can't make millions I might be able to make a few thousand selling the sets on kickstarter.

Well I have seen prototypes of mind controlled robotic limbs, but it requires some machine learning beforehand. I could imagine this working for 2D platformers with a simple left, right and jump command. I doubt that you've developed beyond this, but I'd like to see what you've done if you post a youtube video :) 

Here is an example of a mind controlled machine (for those doubting that this tech already exists):
