GenesisP in the works..

Post by myname2 »

I'm having some hang ups on my 64p, so I decided to do some work on my GenesisP..

Going to use a Psone lcd with a Genesis 2.

I'm debating how to power it.. I'm thinking 8 aa`s... Gonna work for now with alkalines, then get some rechargables later.

I'm probably gonna put it in an n64 case, if I can ill fit it into the genesis 2 case though..

Pictas!

You should use no more than 5AAs alkaline or 6AAs rechargeable with the PSOne screen.

You can't hotlink PHP images.

And, I doubt that such big screen would fit on the Genesis 2 case.

Darn, I hate those big ass cases. :(

C_mon: you are absolutely correct.... I started the project using a dvd player tft, so I was using more voltage, but switched to the psone lcd to save space... Didn't make the connection that I needed to drop the voltage, thankyou! Man, that would suck...

And the dvd player tft works fine, but I need to see if I can do a led mod on it.. I may use it for the n64 project. I'm deciding still, the controller board is pretty big, the n64p will have a bigger case, so there ya go.

Andoba(spelling? I'm on my cell phone, so I cant go back and check without retyping this.. My apologies if I spelled it wrong.)

Thankyou, I didn't know that.

Ehh.. We will see. I was planning on flipping the mobo over, so its upside down, cartridge sticks out the bottom? Then put the screen above it, stick the controller and batteries on the side, and put tact switches on the controller?

I want to use the original buttons for the controller, any tips on ways to do that? Thanks!

Hotglue the controller board to the case, and solder the solder points directly to the underside of the PCB.
