Tried to get a good picture of the image quality on the screen, this one does it semi justice.

Special Thanks:
There are so freaking many people I should thank, and I don't want to leave anyone out so... I'll sum it up into two category's:
Emu_kid - For making this all possible in the first place.
EVERYONE - who has contributed in some way to the GameCube portablizing scene in the past months, so many new discoveries have been made and there are just to many people who have been there to help test, provide idea's or just provide general support/manlove, etc, etc. You guys all rock! You know who you are.

OMG!! This is amazing!!!!!!

 

[ShockSlayer]

Maaan, that is something else. Looks fantastic, everything from that crystal clear picture to that perfect casework!

Glad to see it finally done. The labels really give it that finished look, and I like the matching plugs on the bottom.

This is so awesome.

Ashen once again proves his status as a god amongst boys.

 

[ttsgeb]

I call BS. It can't be this amazing.

 

[Tchay]

Ahh it looks so crisp!!!! Great job Ashen. I can't think of any compliment that hasn't already been said about your work.

Congratulations for building the FIRST portable gamecube to utilize the infamous progressive scan video mode

And for now, this is the smallest portable gamecube with batteries!!!!

Greatest Gamecube portable ever made. Just sayin.

I honestly can't think of a way to make a better one. I'm in awe.

 

[ttsgeb]

I could start pointing out flaws in the paint, but then I would realize that my phone is in worse condition and was factory made...

The only other problem I have, I posted a potential solution in the worklog thread, albeit kinda late. That being the edge around the decal due to it being on a black background... I know it doesn't look that bad IRL, but it still bothers me... other than that little bit of nitpicking, it's incredible in every way.

SO GOOD

 

[zeturi]

Mother*Can'tSayThisOnTV*ing gorgeous.

 

[Mario]

Seriously though, this looks great! Makes me really want to make a GC portable, even though I've never owned a GC.

 

[laingsoft]

It's absolutely amazing how far portables have come in such a short time. The user built portables used to be screens, batteries, and controllers hotglued and bondoed to N64 cases. Those were considered the norm not too long ago, now this is starting to become normal.
It makes me happy that the hobby has matured so much, but makes me sad because I can never make something as awesome.
Good job man.

 

[mymixed]

Probably the best casework ever. AND THE SCREEN LOOK AMAZING. Ashen, job.

 

[J.D]

Boner.

 

[Spoleyo]

This is so amazing...it reminds me of looking at a 3ds with that perfect casework.

And are those slider caps from an xbox analog? If so, how'd you get a yellow one?

 

[CapnLilNemo]

Really fantastic.

I believe they are replacement caps from dealextreme

 

[Spoleyo]

Oh wow, i didnt think DX sold those. Ill have to check that out. Thanks!

The c-stick is yellow because Ashen painted it.
