Re: N64 portable worklog (name to be confirmed soon)
I'm seriously considering RCP but I need to work out how I want the cartridge slot to sit.
Battery will be one of these:

I used the same one in my previous portable and it works great.
I'll hopefully have some more progress pics later as I started work on the front of the case last night.

BACK FROM THE DEAD:
So I started this sometime ago and never really made much progress on it. Anyway, my mate came over the other day and saw it sat on the side and asked why I had never finished it. So to cut a long story short, he took the back part of the case home and extended it make the case about 1 inch deeper while I worked on the front section i.e. buttons, screen hole etc...
So he came over last night and we hit the garage. This is what we have so far:
We measured, and measured, and measured some more and we're quite sure that all the internals are all going to fit making this a rather small portable.
The front is fitted with the standard N64 C buttons, Wii 1, 2, start button and D-pad and the analog is yet to be decided. I'm thinking a gold analog from a gold wii pad with the portable painted black
More progress soon....

Progress!
The cart slot has been slightly relocated as in its original position it sat too tight to the case.
Mate drilled some holes for charge and headphone jacks. Ignore the poor attempt at a vent hole. Fortunately the holes haven't been drilled yet.
Now for a look inside. N64 mobo on top:
Battery on the bottom.

The front of the case has now been painted and all the buttons have been fitted.
Speaker hole:
Vent hole. need another line of holes drilled. Other holes are for headphone and charge jacks and volume control.
We have also scrapped the little hat to cover the cart slot and have come up with a better plan. More updates soon.

Clarky likes to put Z on the right. Most non-Americans do. You'll get used to it.

Your right I do like to put Z button on the right. Reasons, which button do you use to shot on Halo, Call of Duty, pretty much any shooter on the Xbox. Which hand/finger would you use if you were to fire a gun!? Aesthetically its better to put the Z on the right.
L and R are on the back at the bottom.
