Hey, Well the screen images that I posted there are not very good for color representation, this is a better one, I tried to get the color closer to the real thing, maybe a couple percentage points in difference on color, most noticeable is the sharpness on fine details as you can see, yeah it...

Hey all I think I got it :D , but I don't really understand why :? . Thanks for the advice Prog, E64 and bud. I spent a bunch of hours trying to reverse engineer why it worked with the standard Gamecube s-video cable and why I got the ghosting by directly wiring the C/Y to the screen...

Hello all, I have been working on my n64 portable for a long while now and I'm getting close to finishing it, my problem is I'm trying to get S-Video to work with my 7" car screen, I was able to get it to work when I was hooking it up with an n64 s-video cable by adding jumpers to the pins of...

Hello all, I'm thinking of making the memory card internal to the n64 portable, I'm trying to decide on a Memory Rumble pak solution, I would like to have both, and use one of those 1mb 492 page memory card solutions, I have looked at the Nyko Hyper Pak Plus with it's 4 banks of memory to...

Hey, So the wires are not good if they are around 7" long, well I was thinking of wiring the cart slot from behind the n64 board (left example in image below) that way they could be a little shorter. Although I am not sure how to wire the cart from behind the board, might be confusing...

Hey thanks for the info, Meaning they are good unless there is interference nearby, and what kind of interference from the board or externally, or they work fine no matter what? I have Ethernet wire and ribbon cable aka ide wire found in a computer, but some say it breaks kind of easy because...

Hey, I like the idea of the ethernet ports and wires, I hadn't thought of using them in regards to internal wiring. Thanks.

Hey all, I have been looking at some case material options for my first N64 Portable, for the size I want it's going to be about 10" wide by 5.5" tall or so, it looks like most cases from say poly case are a little to small for that size, and I looked at ABS sheet plastic and it seems almost...

I want to make sure I have this understood. I have made progress in my attempt to use S-Video on my 7" LCD, the thing is, I'm not sure about this, I thought I would have to connect the Chroma (C) and Luma (Y) to the driver board for it to work, but I am surprised to find that it really only...

Hey Guys, I looked at the sprocket64 by Mario http://forums.modretro.com/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=442&start=10, he found a way to use the s-video driver chip pins to get his 7" LCD to use the S-video input, and I want to make s-video work on my n64 portable. I got a 7" Car LCD with 800x480...

Hey Bush, I did a little testing, I didn't notice but there is a difference in picture when switching normal to wide screen, I just took some pictures, my lcd converter box (http://www.ebay.com/itm/190596379150?ss) has multiple resolutions but this is the lowest one in 4:3 800x600 60Hz. It's a...

Hey all, I have been testing an NTSC NUS-001 N64 that I purchased to make a portable with some other parts, I'm in the US, and I have not been able to get Donkey Kong 64 to display in Widescreen, I have looked around not really been able to figure out why, I plugged it into 50" LED tv with...

I have been looking for a good large screen with switchable 16:9/4:3 aspect (wide screen games) for my first n64 portable, the psone screens seem expensive lately (80$-90$) so I thought I'd look for a cheaper alternative, I have found the standard 7 inch car rear view screens the resolutions are...
