So, the truth comes out.

Post by NES_fanatic »

If you people have no life and listen to podcasts like I do, you'd have downloaded the one Ben linked to on his homepage. He got interviewed and told us the big secret. He's actually taking a shot at an Xbox360!

I remember all the speculation about it being an Xbox or a Dreamcast, but anyone who said 360 just got shrugged off. I remember even saying as a joke that he'd make one in a past thread. Now we must eat humble pie.

Oh, and did Ben sound a little...... intoxicated during the interview?

he said he was working on gamecube. what he said about 360 is that if he would make one, it would be a wall-powered laptop thing.

I know, but a 360, that's extreme. Even if it is a laptopish deal, it'd be kick-ass.

I'm also just as excited about the Gamecube portable, since Ben makes some of the most professional cases (no offence to gamelver and others, but ben's cases do rock).

i cant really imagine a GCp by ben, it seems like it would be hard to get a comfortable GC controller in one with a CNC machine. which makes me want to see one even more :D

In my opinion, cases are the worst part of his work. Ah well.

While Ben's cases may not look extremely ergonomic, I guarantee they are much more durable and designed than almost all of our cases.

If someone wants to donate me a gamecube, I can portablize it and see if I can beat Ben :P

well if it was a laptop style 360 that plugs into a wall, it really wouldnt be too hard, would it? i mean, you make a case, built in controls, and hook up a screen. in theory you could just get the screen made for 360 and build controls into the case to get the laptop effect.
