Anyways, this is a SNESp/NESp combo (hence the somewhat misleading name

) using a LED modded psone lcd, mini SNES, Yobo NOAC, regular SNES controller, and 6xAA rechargable batteries (2250mAh each).
Just posting this to see if anyone is interested in it. I'll be making the case this weekend (after I go see Narnia

) using styrene and bondo. One problem so far is that the snes is having sound output problems. I'm hoping it's just a short, otherwise I'll have to get a new mini.

are you having problems getting stereo sound off of the IC were ben got it from, the same was happening to me it went away when i decided to just get mono from the original audio spot

I'm grabing it from the A/V jack. If I can't figure it out I'll probably cut the audio traces (incase it is a short) and go straight to the chip.

sound cool
will the NES have a cart slot?

yeah, the Yobo clones don't have built in roms.

Is there a reason why you chose the name 'pNES?'
Imagine bringing it to a bunch of friends, they ask "What's that?"
You say, "It's my Super pnes!"

I thought that the stereo signals off the AV adapter were mixed. I remember there being an expensive adapter you had to buy to get stereo sound... are they mixed on the old SNES?

I don't know if Luc would agree with this post being in the Trading Post.

I mainly chose the name for the joke in it. (hence the catch phrase I have in the first post)

snes mini outputs stereo sound if you grab it off of the IC

But it's merely a thread asking if anyone would be interested in it

As in buy it?

Post by **gannon** » Tue Dec 06, 2005 10:59 pm

Well, trade or buy, but most likely buy. Looks like the build cost is in the area of ~$150 plus labour.

That's dirt cheap! Just my NESp cost that much (thanks to a dead screen...)

Hey, could you post a couple concepts of what this..um.. "thing" (

) will look like?
I'm assuming you got the NES/SNES connector working then? Could you post some more info on it?

Post by **gannon** » Wed Dec 07, 2005 2:53 pm

Nah, I didn't get the combo connector working yet (I have a good idea how to do it, but it's a bit complex / not worth the effort)
Beware the crappy picture!

sheesh you would think you would at least erase the S instead of putting a big x on it

Its a nice concept though and good luck on it
