The Nortendo 64p WIP

[Nortier]

So I cant seem to finish any project and have skipped around from three different never finishing one, but thats another story. I am making this worklog so I can hopefully be more dedicated to one project and finish it. I have the controller extended and put in the case. The start and a button part pops of when i was testing everything so i got to put that back on. Back side

Front side

Heres the back half of the case. I have both shoulder buttons and the z button.

Both half put together, overall its pretty thin but the case is a little big.

I am using a portable dvd player screen

Whats that? A playstation controller port on a dvd player?!?

Its and ipod adapter that was built in to the dvd player that i rewired to a playstation port.

Now I can have the plug on the outside and then plug the dock in when i want to.

Here it is not complete but with the screen laying on it so you get an idea of what its going to look like.

Thats a fried 64 in their and the cord sticking out is just the controller cord still attached for testing purposes.


I did run into trouble while making this, i fried one 64 when it was running off batteries after i rewired the cartridge slot, it was playing a game then one of the wires poped of and shorted the board . But now all I have to do is install the fan, get a new 64, some case work, fix start and a buttons, and led backlight it. So thier my WIP any im going seakayaking tommorow and wont be back for a week so I wont respond for a while. Thanks for reading.

Hahah, same here.

What DVD player did you use for the screen?

[XCVG]

That's sweet. The back looks a bit ugly but it's still really nice. Finish it, don't be a loser like me.

[bacteria]

Looks good so far. Nice big screen, what is it - a 7" ?

What DVD player is the screen and board from please? Is it composite or does it do RGB too?

[Basement_Modder]

ditch the controller ports and integrate a LOB64 port.

[Shakespeare]

Digging the case, man! What is it? If it's a frankencase, NICE. What'd you use?

[XCVG]

ditch the controller ports and integrate a LOB64 port.

Agreed.

I'd have to disagree unless, you are going to see other portables, don't put in the lob64. However, if so, maybe you can have both on there, with the lob64 somewhere too.

With a LOB64 port you can save space and still use it as a home console. You need an adaptor box though, easy build.
