N64 At its smallest.

Or redesigning... >.>

no redesigning.

Nothing but trimming.

Almost all the SMT components on the bottom of the N64 are filtering caps. You can probably junk them all if you have a stable power source.

I wanna trim mine a bunch now.

I'm doing some INSANE tracing and mapping right now. If I am successful, expect some EXTREME trimming to the AV crap on the right.

Not just you I am doing the rev 3 and 7, you are doing rev 5 and 9.

Also I told you it all went to the 1 when we were tubing and I was right

EDIT: JULIAN!!! GET ONLINE NOW, I FIGURED OUT SOMETHING THAT COULD MAKE THE N64 SMALL ENOUGH TO FIT IT INTO AN MGB WITHOUT MUCH RELOCATION EXCEPT RCP.

YESSSSSS

Beta, I've gotten a lot of the pinouts for all the U chips on a rev 5. If you haven't already done that, I can give them to you to save time or confirm.

No need.
Beta and I are working together on every Rev board besides Rev 2.
We know what we are looking for and what we need.
I have tested alot of the stuff already.

Next step, GameBoy Micro...

(I may just be completely oblivious, but I didn't know these things even existed until about a week ago...)

I could manage a GBA, and definitely a DS.

Sure with the motherboard alone, but with cooling, batteries that will last more than a few minutes, some messy wiring and hotglue, and an entire analogue stick, probably not.

Not so much cooling is needed; external batteries; and they talked about using a nub in the secret64 thread.

Could fit everything in a DS without a TON of trouble, but a GBA would need to be thicker.

 

[snowpenguin]

you forget controls. controls are really thick. and in such a cramped case, you would need some form of venting or cooling besides heatsinks alone.

 

[βeta]

You don't know what you're talking about, and you underestimate me.

 

[Atari]

I also forgot a screen and driver board. Yeah, buttons are really thick. I mean, I would love to see you guys prove me wrong, but I doubt it could be done without an entire board redesign.

 

[βeta]

Custom printed controller board with built in contacts for membranes, and really thin buttons. Easy. Ever look inside a PSP? Kind of like that.

 

[Atari]

Ah. I am intrigued.

Although an external battery pack is crap.

I would really love to see that.

 

[ShockSlayer]

For the record, an n64p can fit inside an original DS with internal battery pack.
