Commission for Gintoki - GameCube Fusion Rev. 2

[LOCtronicz]

I believe this is going to be my most favourite Ashen portable yet!!

Awesome work!!! You keep on getting better and better. What's next??

 

[Ashen]

Thanks Zen! Hopefully Gintoki will be happy with it. I do believe I like the design of this one better, with the full analogs that is.

I think I may read a book or two and finish playing Skyward Sword. Then maybe a Wii Lappy or N64. Not sure which first to be honest.

GAWD I freakin love those screws you're using on that heatsink.

Why not finish Skyward Sword on a Wii Laptop??

 

[Ashen]

That may happen Zen.

Anyways, I don't think I'm going to make up a finished thread for this being that its a commission. I'm sure people are getting tired of seeing repetitive video's and flax from me by now. Here's some craptastic pics of the finished unit, my camera wants to make everything dark and blurazy tonight for some reason.

Unit is 100% done, tested, etc, etc. Sans the L/R decals and the logo decal I'd like to apply:

I'm not 100% sure about it though, what do you guys think?

This one is real similar to the Revolution in every way, I tweaked out a bit more battery life in this one somehow though. 3 hours and 40 minutes!

AlmostWTF cut GameCube motherboard (onboard audio pre-amp retained) + Trimmed official GC heatsink with Tchay's netbook fan @ 5v

Zenloc's custom regulator: CPU=1.5v GPU=1.7v 3.3v and 5v all regulated separately for maximum battery life.
Official GameCube controller with rumble relocation, iPhone 3GS rumble motors, fully functional L/R "triggers" via the dual tact mod.

Awesome job Ashen!!!

So I gotta ask, which one truly feels better to play?? The one with nubs? Or the original joysticks?

 

[Ashen]

Original joysticks for sure. Don't get me wrong though. I still love the Revolution.

 

[SonyQrio]

Ashen, this is your best unit yet!

I personally like it with no decals. But, that's just me.

You have the little plastic tabs on the inside of the case but what is keeping the screws from falling out? (the ones holding the 2 halves of the case together)

[Ashen]

There are nuts superglued to the holes on the inside.

Hey Ashen, amazing work! I was just wondering how much it would it cost to commision one of the Revolutions with the original Gamecube buttons?

 

[Ashen]

$1000. Add a bit more if you want a WODE/component cable. Right now I'm unavailable though.

 

[Mister Nickels]

Lovelyyyy...

Speaker hole in shape of GC logo is legit.

 

[Ashen]

Made up a nice little information video for Gintoki. Its nothing very exciting, but I thought maybe some people would enjoy a closer look at this.

 

[morgrif]

you are the true meaning of awesomeness...
that thing can't be called anything else than perfect...
congratulations
