The concept of game system laptops is best as seen in the pic earlier.

Or atleast thats what I'm doing with the GC ultra mini. You can however put in ar keyboards for phantasy star online and action replay.

only build a laptop if you plan to make the controller external (as you would need it to sit without you holding it while you hold the controller). I guess the vcsp rev 7 style is an exception, but that was more like the gba sp than a laptop.

well thats the thing, in my design I designed it so there's one port for the psx 1 port and the second port for the second game port. That's a mouthfull, now if I decided on else, I would add a third party or first multitap, now for the keybord, I could make it like volume, brightness, and stuff like that. So let me modify my 3d laptop, and I'll see if my dad will let me use his camera or something.

Ouch dam my tooth hurts, well back onto subject, Hopefully the Portable will look better than your drawing :P, lol yeah my drawing wouldnt look any better, but a Computer program would help a lot with makeing designs. hmmmm hope your Portable becomes a success, because its with my Psone, but who cares your giving me a Dreamcast for it :wink: and repairing my DS.

Oh and back off subject, I would like to switch the SD card reader to a CF card Reader, cause I found a cool guide I can use to make a CF GBA cart, if ya dont have CF readers yet, than SD is fine, but Ide rather have CF now.

I just tried Google Sketchup, and it seemed more complicated than Autodesk Inventor and Solid Works. I couldn't even dimension stuff, it just labeled it, but made no changes. Am I just retarded when it comes to Sketchup?

might be, but it's pretty simple for a program, you just have to know how to work everything on it

No problem :D as long as ya can repair&flash&put a new case on my DS I'll be fine, you didnt want a controller did ya? I hope not........... I apologize If ya wanted it, they shouldnt be to hard to find should they? Were you going to do a PS1p with Dual Shock and Analog? or Just with the Digital (Original) Controller? Thats the main reason I didnt send one, cuz didnt know if ya needed one, and which kinda Controller you were using.

If ya wanna see the PSone running, you can check out my Swap trick video in the Boot disc thread, not the First link that video sucks, the one I posted is the better one.

Uh, this has already probably been posted, but,

wouldn't a PSX laptop be a PSone with the screen attached? and the controller thrown on the case?
