Wow, ben is putting these things together pretty fast!

Also, if anybody needs the 72 pins nes connectors I can get some for around $2.50 a piece.

He sure is. I'm ready to see that SNES built by hand. I think the NOAC portable is the best NESp.

I could use one of those connectors, gannon.

Well according to Ben the first one was a completion of the NOAC he started months ago. The second one (which looks cool, more modern look) is part of his "Project 42" list of portables.

Gannon about the 60-72 convertors, did you make them? and how long are you going to offer them, I dont want to jump into a 4th project until I get one done first.

Yeah, the noac is the smallest, but the rev. 2 nes isn't all that much bigger, although it probably weighs a lot more.

I've also been hunting down wholesale prices for things I want to carry in my store, but it is quite hard.
I found a place where I can get the super joy for $6.90 a piece, but I'd have to buy 1000 of them, and that's not something that I can do.
I also found a place where I can get 20 of them for $290 plus shipping, and that's not too bad.

I'm loving Ben's new portables. Keep cranking them out!

I'm not making the 72-60 pin converters, although I can get those cheap as well

Those NES designs were pretty cool... I hadn't even thought it feasible to use an entire NES board in a portable that size! Good thing I haven't finished my NESeqze yet...

Actually, I'm pretty sure both of the smaller ones used NOACs(NES on a chip.) from pirate consoles. Then again, he MIGHT've figure out a way to get the original pretty damn small.

If you actually read anything, you'd realize that the second vertical nesp he made had the entire nes board in it. If you cut off some of the ground strips on the nes it's really not that much bigger than the cartridge.

Wow. I'm quite surprised, to say the least.

I apoligize for my idiocy, feel free to beat me over the head with the largest portables currently in your posession

"More to come every few weeks, including Super Nintendo and PS1 Portables! Plus some old Atari favorites!"

From the bottom of the 'Buy Portables' page. Another PS1 portable!

no, the first horizontal one had an entire board on it. the second one used a NOAC.

As I said, the second vertical one had the entire nes board.

Again, rather amazing that he did that, but I can see how it could be pretty damn easy if you knew what you were doing. Judging from those photos, this one is thicker. he could've hacked off entire sections and using wires to connect them.
