Hi Everyone :)

I have some questions that I want to ask people who already built an portable GC or people who know the answers..

First; Does anyone have guide on doing this ? Because I have never done anything like this before but I am a little fimiliar with kind of things ( but not very much, I am more a computer geek haha).
Second; Could someone please write down what you approxiamately need for things.

I already knows that it isn't the easiest thing to do , but i do love gamecube and i want to give it a try :)
Another question haha , is it much harder to do a portable GC who reads the game from an SD card than a PGC with Disc drive

This are things that i got that maybe can be used :

4.3 inch screen
1 batterypack (dont know the power of it but it did run a 7 inch android tablet for like 4 hours when watching video)
The Gamecube
3 Controllers
Minispeakers


Thanks :)
 
250+ probably unless you get a really cheap battery and screen, but if you want something nice it will be 250+. Also to save money you can get supplies from old electronics (wires, tact switches, etc.) :)

Okey , thanks alot for the answer :)
I do got a batterypack at like 2500 mAh and a 4.3 inch screen is that something that i can use ? Even if the battery only last an half an hour i will be glad.
I am doing this because I have an Project in school to december this year and i chose to work with this :P So it doesnt have last for very long just under a 20minuts presention :P
If i succeed with this project i want to an even better one later on , lets say this one will be a prototype of the second one :)

Thanks to all of you for your help :)
 
You need to know what voltage it is or else it wont work. You need at least 7.4v with Zenloc's custom regulator (check megasticky) or you can get 11.1v or higher (not too high) and use the regulator board that comes with the gamecube.

EDIT: Oops didn't see the 2nd page I will just leave the info the way it is :oops:

Anyway here is a great place for batteries https://www.batteryspace.com/
A great battery http://www.batteryspace.com/polymerli-i ... isted.aspx
You will also need a smart charger and protection circuit.
