Vision: To make smallest self-contained NES "portable" gameing console yet!

I need help with case design! I am using a SuperJoy III.

You'll have to beat my GBO case and bens NESp

First idea: If you put it in an altoids case with a hip gear that would be pretty darn small. You might have to use an external controller though, I doubt a D-pad would fit in next to the screen. There wouldn't be room for a speaker and amp (But a headphone jack would fit). And you would only have the built in games, a cart slot prolly wouldn't fit.

Second idea: Build it into a NES cartridge case. I actualley tried this already, and got pretty far. I stopped work on it when my screen broke. Too bad, cuz it was looking pretty good.

I fit Everything except the screen, and batteries into a NES controller.
and thats keeping the cart port. I agree with G-force, you could do something amazingally small but you might have to sacrifice the cart port.

Yeah I saw that, pretty cool. Too bad a HG screen dosn't fit in the NES controller, that would make for one small and easy NESp.

One other idea (I may use it myself). Put the NOAC and contolls inside the hip gear screen case. There is quite a bit of empty space in there. The D-pad would go over the left speaker, and the B A buttons would go horizontal over the right speaker. Some bondo and paint, it would look pretty awesome. You could even fit a cartridge connector on the top of the case.

i figure with some work i can get a sj 3 to be about nes cart wide, .5" thick or so and 2 inches tall plus a tiny bit for a small battery i have, then figure out a screen lol, i would probably build a small flip screen type thing from a hip hear or intec

I'm going to use a NES controller, and attach that to a PSOne screen.

wouldn't an NES portable fit into and NES cartridge? I think if I ever make a portbale NES thats what I'd do

Post by **Triton** » Mon Nov 07, 2005 7:37 pm

Sorry soundwave, I didn't even know you were doing it. But all of mine will be in the cart. Maybe not the batteries though

I won't be doing it for another month or two atleast, then I'll probably procrastinate, then blow all my money, then...yeah.
