Awesome! I can't believe how cool that is :shock: Give yourself a big pat on the back for making that :D
I..I just can't believe how good that looks.....

Very nice job fitting everything in there, I especially like how you used the original PSone LCD headphone jack and video in.

Questions: What is the plug on the bottom for. And what is the circular thing in the middle.

Again, excellent job! :D

The switch is power.
The jacks are av in and headphone out.
The circular thing is a probably a volume control or something... Actually, I dont know what it is... :?
EDIT: Just noticed the db 9 plug, but its...
-Player 2 port (DB-9 jack) Not made a controller for it yet though.

Is this for me? I didn't ask what the switch was. You think a noob I am?

To make everything a little simpler, I left the original wires connected to the input board. The circular thing is a battery meter (I still have some calibrating to do). It is illuminated by a mini white LED.
I used beveled nylon screws for all outside screws. I countersunk them in to the case plastic to make it nice and flush with the surface. The cartridge is held in place by a custom made plexiglas piece. (its a little hard to see on the pic)
L and R are on the sides of the battery.
The wierd rectangle above the cart slot is the inverter box for the backlight. I used a low power backlight from another broken LCD. It is smaller, but does not affect screen brightness. Ben's resistor short would not work on this PSOne screen, so I had to do this.

Thanks for all the complements everyone, and good luck with your SNESp's!!!!!!!

Seven months worth of work and research, finally paid off!!!!

Oh so you remembered, eh!!!! Yeah that was great help. I used some other guy's but his was completely backwards, but yours was right on the money. :D :D :D I also had my own pinouts, but I did them several months ago (back in August), but I couldn't remember which way I was looking at the SNES ports at the time.
