You won't be able to fit a N64, screen, and buttons into a case slightly bigger than a PSP. Maybe a mini-SNES, but not a N64.

I agree that seems way to small to be able to fit all the guts inside. But if you wanna try go for it man.

With an N64 aim for 2.5 inches thick, 6 inches tall, and 9 inches wide. Not to mention at least 4 broken N64s assuming you're completely new to this, and judging by your psp design, you are.

Also, your design will not be able to jam speakers above your screen unless you provide a good inch.

Mine probably the smallest you can make it!(I have to cut part of the board off to make it fit,) for an accurate sizes of things, you con go to the wiki and use the part template that anotherperson made. its really good to use. (and use proper spelling, its really annoying when trying to read stuff like that!)

If you want small go Nes-on-a-chip (NOAC) or mini/Fctwin SNES. Or go out and buy a DS.

plz dont tiep like dis is aim cuz its knot. :P

1. You're going to break several N64s. They kill themselves if you look at them wrong. If you don't want your N64 to die, then don't take it apart.

2. You already have a PSP, and since you don't want a sane case you might as well use an emulator. You're not going to get an N64 motherboard that small unless you really know what you're doing.

Well the Stickies help a lot in learning how to do the electrical stuff in a portable. Then the case Construction forum to help with the case. And please use some proper grammar.[/url]

:lol: I dont think a playdough case is going to happen....It would be waay to fragile and would more than likely crumble in an intense match of Smash Bros.

Lol. *cough*

You cant make it out of playdo sorry.

Also, in advance. Your gameboy screen wont work as a screen for this.

For a screen. I suggest using a hipgear screenpad, if you want to keep things small.

How old are you? Playdo? Crayon drawings?

Anyway, always nice to see new projects/designs; however yours won't work, far too small and design has flaws.

I was wondering the same thing. :lol: I have to say this is the most unrealistic portable idea ive seen yet. I want to make a portable out of regular dough so you could bake it. That would be badass :lol:
