Of the numerous longstanding video game franchises under the banner of Bethesda Softworks,Falloutis one that has had a tremendous impact on many in the gaming community. With mods and fan-made content being produced for variousFallouttitles, some of which are over a decade old,Fallouthas continued to maintain its longevity as a franchise for nearly thirty years. Now, one such fan of the series has built a PC using an unlikely piece ofFalloutmemorabilia.
Some fans may be surprised to know that theFalloutseries has been going since 1997. While the release ofFallout 3revitalized the series' popularity in a major way, the lore and worldbuilding ofFallouthas continued to evolve for over two decades. During that time, a lot of common items and equipment found in the multitude of franchise installments have been made into pieces of merchandise, with one such example being a mini-nuke.

Over on TikTok, a user named thefalloutcollector managed to make a functional PC out of a limited edition model of a mini-nuke, which serves as the in-game ammunition for the Fat Boy. This model of the mini-nuke comes from theFallout Anthologycollection, which included the first several games in the franchise, where the mini-nuke served as, essentially, a large game case.
Miraculously, thefalloutcollector has managed to re-purpose the mini-nuke into a container that houses a custom-built PC. The functionality of the PC is remarkably impressive, with the user managing to run the opening segment ofFallout: New Vegaswith little to no issues. However, it might be harder to run something likeFallout 4orFallout 76via the mini-nuke PC.
It’s amazing how much popularityFallouthas managed to maintain over the years. Despite the extremely long development cycles forFallouttitles, with the ten-year gap betweenFallout 2andFallout 3being the longest,Falloutfans seem to be as dedicated and passionate about the franchise as ever.
In any case, it will be interesting to see what the future holds for theFalloutseries going forward. WhileFallout 76has been making a steady comeback, in light of its less than stellar launch, many fans are wondering when the next mainlineFalloutinstallment will release. It’s been nearly eight years since the release ofFallout 4, and with the ongoing development of bothStarfieldandThe Elder Scrolls 6, as well as additional content forFallout 76, it doesn’t seem like a new mainlineFalloutgame will release anytime soon.
