Well, it's been over a year, and it's finally done.

Image

After I nearly gave up due to a loose cart slot wire (it was hard to find, really!) I finished it quickly so I could take it to school before it ended for the year. This thing is massive, heavy, and awkward, not to mention just plain ugly. But I put a lot of work into it, and I'm still proud of my accomplishment.

Worklog: viewtopic.php?f=33&t=493


(crap quality, sorry, will reupload soon)

Features (in random order):
-3.5" TFT LCD (small but pretty good)
-NUS-CPU-08 motherboard (lightly trimmed)
-ZN-40 case with huge lump
-jumper pak (all I had, and an expansion pak wouldn't fit anyway)
-SuperPad Plus controller board, heavily trimmed
-Initial DVD player battery and PCB
-can play and charge simultaneously (with powerful enough adaptor)
-DualShock shoulder buttons with twin Z
-XBOX stick caps, one XBOX and one DualShock stick
-switchable sticks for playing Goldeneye
-stereo sound with volume control
-two power switches
-unconnected dock connector and useless switch
-dubiously effective heatsink setup

Feel free to criticize and slam it all you wish. After all, I do it to everyone else. plz dont be 2 mean, i get sad and eat more & get sadder

I like it. After all, you finished a portable, right? I am curious, though, what that useless switch was originally intended for.

The longest crap you ever took. :P

Nah, it has charm. Heavy as *PLAQUE*, ugly, and hard to hold.

Exactly like a first portable turns out. :D

I like it. I've given up on three or four projects without finishing them so you're a better man than me! :tophat: Good stuff. This will make you even more motivated for number two.

No need to be honest. :P

Just kidding, XCVG. My first portables case wasn't too great, either.

Good thing I abandoned it and built a different one. :XD:

I probably won't build another one. Don't have enough monies. Though I've been toying with building a crap Genesis portable.

Don't give this up. You rarely break flax after the first one.
