hehe. my Australian gamecube has rgb on the multiport, ever wonder what all those unused pins are for?

refering back to a much older post, it seems many people don't know that EU and AU PAL gamecubes have RGB in the multi plug, therefore can be RGB'd without modification, unless you need your sync signals for vga/hidef

thanks guys, i think next might be an n64 as i got it free with 3 controllers and some games.. im up for a challenge.

then the gcp, il use wood for the n64 case, but the gamecube will be done properly (friend with a 3d printer 8) )

wish me luck

edit: the buttons arent all that bad, im going to ...

im going to use the original lid for my gamecube as well, im going to call it the gameslab. begause it will be a long landscape design using a flattened gamecube.

i also just got a free n64+ 3 controllers and 10 games (including original gold ocarina of time and majoras mask games)

lol, the wires make me cry too. but it works

when i put the pstwo in i'll organise the wires

i forgot so say, theres 8 batteries in a 2s 4p arrangement

desktop factory should be releasing their $4999 3d printer soon, but its maximum size is 5x5x5 inches, so large portable cases you'd have to be done in little bits.

still, it would be a while before we can get them for $50 or even $500

but $4999 could be a good investment and it could be payed off ...

i do think he knows what he meant.

the minimum battery life for a handheld would be ~ 1 hour

too bad rapid prototyping/ 3d printers are still so damn expensive

i had to do something like that for my computers water cooling, but i found at the local electronics shop (jaycar in this case) a car adapter that did the trick, it was around 4 watts. and had a very messy square wave output (just wanted to test my new oscilloscope)

here in australia you can get a mini snes for Au$20 but screens a a little more - $50-80

i sold my first 'portable' to a school mate for $100, thats $20 profit to buy more tools to make better systems.

the snes is a good place to start as the only tricky part (or annoying part) is the cart slot ...

look at all them pretty colours !

ok, its almost done, il post some pictures when its painted.

my first portable was the size of an xbox and made from flimsy plastic...

this one is the size of a ps2 (not slim) and made from rather thick plywood

im using a 7" screen on this one because i had it laying around, the screen is ...
