Finally closed this one up, thanks to everyone here. Made a video detailing everything.
Enjoy !



Here are a few pics

Specs and facts :

Vacc formed case about 18x10x4 cm
PAL cube
3.5" ebay screen
No batteries this time, guess it was too much for a first :roll:
I actually had to go with a start button on top of a tact for Z, because of bad measurements
Wiikey fusion equiped thanks to Ashen and every one here
Took about 6 month to build
Litterally ruined the paint job putting stuff in :(
HD on the back are actually my initials

I was going for a comfy portable that plays nicely, and it is! I guess I'm satisfied with that only :awesome:

I love this thing man! So ergonomic and sleek! Indeed it looks super comfy to hold. It turned out beautiful, especially for your first one. Well done. :D

Also.... You guys and your epic presentation video's... Looks like I'll have to spend more time on mine from now on.

I need to stop judging how things will turn out based on the name...
This is great, and you should be proud to play it.

I like the blue. It makes it seem more homemade... In a good way. I feel like it shows more personality than a lot of the recent portables, and that's why you should be so proud. Looking great at the same time as showing it's custom. Great job

Now give it some batteries. :P

Thanks a lot but what do you mean about the whole name thing, is it a lame name?

It always confused me because it seems really close to names both of Ashen's portable and to the Wiikey...

Lovely little cube you've got there. And good job on the epic presentation vid. Lets keep on raising the bar for presentations.

And you should show that modretro animation to palmer. Seriously.

As for the paint job, if you do around 10 layers of paint, the scratches will never go deep enough to show up. A little trick I learned from the mighty Hailrazer when I was painting the Ccube.
