Ventilation. My hands get sweaty as Heck whenever I play, y'know, intense games. I like it!bugman said:Yeah I don't know why I did thatbud said:

Yes. I get sweaty hands when I play video games too. When I play video games at friends houses, they never want to trade off controllers with me because the controller gets soo wet. I guess more ventilation the betterLife of Brian said:Ventilation. My hands get sweaty as Heck whenever I play, y'know, intense games. I like it!bugman said:Yeah I don't know why I did thatbud said:

I got my speakers today. Unfortunetly the package only came with one speaker and I'm positive the listing says 2. I will have to work something out with the seller or buy from somewhere else. But 1 speaker is enough to make speaker holes. I will finish up the case tonight probably and I got some paint today too. I went with blue. I have to buy a new n64 board as well and trim it because I sold the board I was using for this project.

Those vents are almost exactly the same as the ones on the fierce64, and even though it's where your hands are, it's better than no vents. I don't know about this portable, but on mine I couldn't put them on the top because of the cart slot, the bottom because of buttons, and they would be useless on the back since the batteries almost completely covered it. Besides, your hands don't cover the vents all the way, so you still get a good amount of ventilation.
Also, this thing looks sexy, keep up the great work

Batteries!
My mom thought it was a bomb lol
That's tight!
Anyway... I need to get some more spray paint and I'd figure I'd give superglue a try. I think i need some more epoxy. I'm aiming at using absolutely no hotglue this time. I'm really hoping I can close this up in 2 weeks. All I need to do is finish painting and put everything inside. Oh yeah, and I dont have a 3rd party controller yet
but who needs those?

I realize that I suck at spray painting. I put too much on today and it became a drippy mess and I was suppost to finish it with the final coat today but not anymore. I'm watching some how to spray paint vids now and I need to buy some more paint too since I ran out today. Pics after I finish painting.
Everything is in the case and wired up except for the analog stick. I bought an atmega chip from ashen that converts the signals from a 1st party controller into something that the 3ds stick can use. It is partially complete now, meaning I can only play games that use just the dpad like kirby because I dont have an analog stick yet. I havent put the analog sick in yet because I dont know the orientation of it and I have to wait for the chip from ashen.
I like having the cartridge sticking out at a 90 degree angle because it makes for a nice stand for the portable. This portable is a really tight fit, I can only close it up if I squish the 2 halves together. I know this isn't a good idea, but what ever. This will be finished pretty much as soon as I receive the chip from ashen.

Thanks. I think the outside looks great, but I'm a little disappointed in myself on how messy the wiring is on the inside though. All I need is a new 3ds stick that I bought today and I can call this finished! I think my 3ds stick I have now is faulty because the x axis has really low range and it should be perfect because I'm using an atmega chip from ashen.nuke said:
