Well since finishing the clarky64 I've decided to have ago at making a smaller sized portable for myself. I gave the clarky64 to my girlfriend as she liked it so much.

Anyway, heres what I've bought so far for this new project:

And I should hopefully have one of these soon:

Until most of these parts arrive I can start work :D
 
Re: small64 worklog

nice finds man. U got that superpad pretty cheap. I'd like to see how this turns out
 
Re: small64 worklog

Alright guys.

The case and pad finally turned up, so as I had some free time I decided to get on with this 64p.

So far I've wired up a ps1 analog to the superpad (which works great!) and have modded the case this far:

hope this turns out as great or better than the clarky64. Looking good so far. Also, put some LEDs on that thing!

Thanks! If I can be bothered I may make all the buttons backlit :mrgreen:

Here's a small update anyway. Got the start button cut in and pretty much all the control pad wired except for the d-pad, L, R and Z buttons. Just deciding if I should use the superpad one or the original n64 one. Or if I can find the front of the GC pad I dismantled a while ago I'll use that d-pad.

Anyway, pics:

Re: small64 worklog

Looking nice man! Ive heard that most 3rd party dpads are terrible, so I would go with the n64 or GC one. Keep in mind though, the GC one is pretty small, and at least in my experience, doesnt do that great of a job. Keep up the great work!
 
Re: Pnintendo64 worklog

Only a small update this time. Just a bit more case work. Just need to add the R button, drill a couple of holes for various ports, headphones etc.. I'm still awaiting a load of parts so until I get the screen I can't really continue much further.

The nintendo badge will light up when the portable is complete. Let me know what you all think :mrgreen:
 
Re: Pnintendo64 worklog

Thanks bush!! ;)

Small progress. I've trimmed the N64 board a little at the front and sides so far. Still more to do once the screen arrives and when I order the batteries.

After I've trimmed the top bit above the cartridge slot, it will fit like a glove in the lid of the case :mrgreen:

Re: Pnintendo64 worklog

Thanks guys!

I'm trying to make this one something special :mrgreen:

Bit of an update. The N64 board has now been cut down to size so that it fits in the lid of the case. I have also completed the card solt relocation. All is working well :mrgreen:

Not much more I can do as I'm still waiting for the screen. I'm sure it'll turn up sometime this week though.
