    Ditched the old case, decided to use the soft case instead, added a spacer to add a bit more width so the case is more comfortable for me to work with. already got an external battery pack wired up, clips right to your pants/belt and is quite comfortable, will take a pic tomorrow when I get back from my dads. :awesome: case may not be beautiful, but its good enough for me :p

    my plan for the R/L buttons is to use the original pots and just put a small hole in an X/Y button from another controller. then stick the pot into the side and have the tact at the bottom for the full press. excuse the dirty fingers :p

    Aww, make the case purdy please... :cry: Honor the XL Softcase tradition!

    But, my opinion is opinion. Looks good... :rolleyes:

    Edit: What size screen is that?

    Sand the whole sucker down 3 times. Refile your D-Pad and SD card slots, and round out your L/R and 3DS Stick holes. Then it will look as sleek and sexy as

    Got a job today, so I can start ordering some of the parts I need to finish this next week when I get my paycheck. Don't really expect any actual updates for the next 3-4 weeks.

    Beauty case!!!! I like, It's black :p

    Keep up the good Work man.

    I have some laptops destroyed and have many mini-buttons like the man posted 2 or 3 post before.

    Are these mini-buttons like for a GCP? Just curious with them...

    Good Luck!!!!
