Tutorials/Guides/Useful Sites

Builder · Post by **Builder** » Sat Dec 18, 2004 9:54 am

Just stumbled across this great site and Im quite interested in creating portables. I know a little bit about electronics and circuitory however I still need quite a bit of help to guide me. I was going to buy Bens book but it hasn't been released yet so while Im waiting I thought I would look for help on the net. What Im really looking for is tutorials and guides for creating portables (especially Snes).

Since I couldnt find a thread or 'Sticky' on where the good guides are I thought maybe you guys might post your links to help me out. I know there is the links page but often stuff is missed out. Anyway useful sites Ive found so far:

no, the hacking video games one (not by Ben) is similar, but this is a general hardware hacking book, with ipod battery replacement and lotsa other things.

NOW who is the loser?
