Finished SNES portable! Suportable Nintendo(if not taken)

Post by newguy101 »

i call it the Suportable Nintendo, if not already taken. after 1 fried psone screen, giving up on the fc twin, and 2 months of guess and test work i finally ended up with a decent(not great) portable made from a SNES mini. pics taken from my craptastic 1.3mp camera phone so they better viewed from just the thumbnail

all in all id say it's not bad, especially for my first time dealing with electronics. definitely picked up some tips ill use when i build my next portable. for this i made a custom fiberglass mold and used model car paint for the metallic blue. didn't include a headphone jack because i didn't really care for one. the psone screen sound and brightness buttons are a little recessed but owell. t runs off of 6 AA internal batteries which is why its a bit thicker than it could have been. thanks to all those who answered my many questions. i

I really like the case... It makes me think of a Slim Sega Saturn Controller but Bigger.

That is a very nice looking case, though it does look an offal like a Genesis controller. Still it's very nice, very clean.

well the genesis look alike was un-intentional. i actualy took a snes controller pic and increased size by about 250%(or sumthin liek that cant remember exactly). then i made the curve at the top so it would fit the screen guts properly. never even saw it as a genesis controller til it was mentioned here, and i do admit it does have a striking resemblance
