This is being talked about in modder's thread, but I don't want to thread jack it anymore. What I mean is that an n64p could be easily put into a psone (the smaller Playstation) case. I also believe it can be done using a psone screen. Here are some pics:
This is a bare board, untrimmed, with copper ramsinks for heatsinks. EDIT: I lied. I did cut near the controller port area. But still, its a very small cut, and easy to do.
This is with the psone screen pcb laid on top. I did cut off the bottom, because there are alternate points on the board you can use to connect video and audio. This does not actually have to be done, but I'm using this board as my example.
This is the overall thickness. As you can see, the boards fill up the entire bottom of the case. The actual lcd and control boards can easily fit into the top part of the case.
Now, you may be wondering about batteries. If you're willing to cut off the ground edges of the n64 (the left and right sides) then you could fit two very high capacity cylindrical li-ions or li-po batteries. Also, there is not any room for the cartridge slot to be integrated. Since most folks seem to be using another box attached to their portables to enclose the cartidge slot, then this it no problem. If you are willing to use a smaller screen, then it may be possible to integrate the cartridge slot so that it doesn't stick out.
Another advantage of this case is that it already has two easy spots for an analog stick. Just pop out the power and reset buttons from the psone case and hollow out the area where they were with a dremel. This should work nicely if you are also having a c-stick mod done to your controller.
I didn't realize till after I started cutting the case up that I could easily place two analog sticks in where the original buttons were, so that's why I have one cut out at the bottom. As you can see, I have the psone lcd sitting where the disks used to, so the lcd is almost level with the with the rest of the case.
