JB-64 V2.0 Complete!

[bud]

After much delay, I'm very happy to say that this one is finished. I'm very pleased with how it turned out, and hopefully my buyer will be too.
Here's a parts list:
Jb-55 case from Polycase
3.5" eBay screen
Hori MiniPad controller
iluv audio amp
Sunon Micro fan
4 rubber tact switches
Rev8 motherboard
Jumper Pack

Sadly, I wasn't able to comfortably fit batteries with a significant amperage inside. With such a short battery life you'd have to carry a charger around and a power supply. It's better just to carry around the power supply, or make an external battery pack. My buyer is an experienced modder, so he can make an external battery pack whenever he needs to.

With my jabbering aside, I give you pictures!

My guide shifted when I was making the fan holes, so one of the holes is slightly off. It works great though! Also, the hori controller is slightly curved, so you can see that the left C is higher than the right C. It doesn't affect playing at all though.

Sexy, sexy, side shot

It's so sexy and small

It works!

Video:


I tried my best to show that everything was working in the video. The only thing I didn't show was the second player port. It does work though.

Let me know what you think!

MY GAWD THAT IS TINY AND SEXY as expected from bud great work .

 

[Antome]

Turned out really nice!

However, are the controls comfortable that close together? Do your hands get cramped or anything? Just looks a little close to me.

Also, I'm a sucker for portrait. Gotta love it.
Awesome work, My bud person!

Osum

 

[Ashen]

Smexy man. Turned out great! Looks Dang tiny too.

Well, it's the same layout as the hori' cause it is a hori, so it's pretty comfortable. It's isn't like holding a SNES controller or anything, but for what it is, it's pretty comfortable.

 

[Kyosho]

Excellent job, sir.

 

[Tchay]

Great work.

But as antome said, is it comfortable? I know you said it was, but seeing the video, your thumbs appear to be in very awkward positions. Maybe its just the camera angle, but my thumb hurts just watching yours.

Still a great job though!

 

[mymixed]

Awesome! I especially like the squishy-tact's on the back of the portable.

 

[unicycler17]

This is beautiful! nicely done!

 

[zaxxon]

i love this portable especially the case work and small size, great work

 

[ToastBucket]

This is some serious sex, man. However, I would have suggested not just using mushy tacts exposed like that on the back. Those rubber thingies fall off quite easily.

 

[bud]

Eh, I haven't had any problems with them. I needed something simple and low profile and these tacts fit the budget perfectly. If an issue arose in the future, they're extremely easy to replace.

 

[bud]

Remember that awful PMP I built? Yeah, I can play the JB off of the batteries in there. AWWW YEAH

Also, I made a car adapter a few days ago. That works also.

 

[ShockSlayer]

Kinda like how I can play the SLGC off the ZNWii?

Legitness.

[wolborg]

That is so much win

 

[SonyQrio]

Nice work, bud. (no pun intended)

 

[Basement_Modder]

THE PUNCH.

I HAVE BEEN BEAT TO IT.

Nice work, though.
