So I finally got around to working on this project and I've built my first prototype. I call it the Noise Entertainment System and it is basically the toy organ circuit with a light sensitive photocell to control the overall pitch. The buttons are not tuned to any scale, just random notes that change depending on light conditions.
I have a lot of little changes that I want to make to the next version:
Brighter leds underneath the Nintendo logo
Smaller switch
Smaller jack?
More resistance between each button to make the pitch change more noticeable between buttons
Overall neatness improved upon
I also want to add a LFO circuit to the next version that I make, though it was quite a challenge fitting all the components inside the tiny controller...
Here it is:
