Also only thing I would say needs work or doesn't look right is the case. I just think you should either have more transparancy or just color it black.
Can't be a radica. He has Sonic 3 in there. Unless ha h4x0r3d a Radica to the max. But, I doubt it is a radica.

That looks sexy as...me Skyler :P

Ah-no, well, it puts my Gennyp to shame with that awesome rewiring, one q though, I wen't to desolder out my cart slot, but even when all the pins were desoldered, it still latched on...any advice, maybe those rubbery holes? :P

Wow! A lot of comments! First off:

-I will be painting it after MASSIVE sanding and bondoing!

-That is a Genesis v3

-A Genesis v2 might fit in there, I'll do a mobo to case ratio soon

-After desoldering all the pins in the cart slot, just use brute force

Hope that answers all the questions. I will be going to Home Depot tonight to pick up some paint.... and bondo.

The cart slot is held down by two screws that go through some metal like holes. The holes actually asist on keeping the cart slot down (they are called rivets in Dutch but I dunno about English). You can take them off quite easily without using brute force.

Just push the borders of the metal thing inwards with a knife or something. Then you should be able to pull it out without any problems.

Looking very nice. I can't wait to see it once painted. I guess I'd never realized how small a Genesis 3 board was.

Lot of kids on this forum... Scary how much 9-14 year olds know...

Is the low button placement uncomfortable? Why are there two power(?) switches?



Still, looks really nice.

Ya, I'm 14. :P

The low button placement is actually pretty nice, I thought it would suck but it turned out comfy.

One switch for screen, on for genny. Since the Genny only consumes 200mA, the battery can last for 20 hours with only the system on. You see, I play a ton of Sonic, namely Sonic 1 and 2, no gamesaves! So when it's time to eat, I just turn off the screen, and come back in 30 minutes with the game remaining.

Sucks to think that I'm 14 and I haven't even finished my 10in1 portable.

PS: Awesome job!
