My NESp Prototype

Post by Super Cameraman »

Right now it's held together with duct tape, but it's really comfortable so I might even keep it that way!

It uses an NES controller, and might have a carterige slot, but I doubt it, because I have like 3 NES games.

As you may see, the case uses 2 NES carts. It's really confortable because they are rounded it the back.

Here's one more unnessisery shot.

I think it looks pretty. :mrgreen: Oh, and FYI, the screen is just a paper cutout of Super Mario Bros. The screen is the same size as an Intec Screen pad thing. (2.5 inches)

Tell me what you think!

Thanks!

I forgot to add a battery, and I did and now it's really heavy. :(

Better start workin' out. But at least it'll get 8 hours of play! :D

On and I got a name: Nintendo DT. (Nintendo Duct Tape)

Duct tape=Good.

Where did you get your screen? I'm looking to make a couple more NESp's for friends and can't find any screens under $40.

Yeah, the screen WILL BE one of those Hip Gear screens from Intec. I'm trading for it.

Man finally someone is going to the NES catridge as a case. Man I posted about that a few months ago, oh well I didn't patent it so I have no more say in this. I also didn't make one because those screens are a pain in the rear to find.

I don't think VGCollector did one at all, because he just sold his only NESp and it was incomplete, caseless. It does, however, remind me of Bioniclebert's NESp. His was pretty much the same only it used an SNES cart.

I also wondered about how secure the NES pad is to the cartridge. Just to be careful, I'd use some epoxy to hold the two together, then a little hot glue, and then finally place the duct tape over that. It'll be a MUCH better hold :wink: ! More permanent.

Good luck,

Okay, I think I might use only one NES cart as the case. Will a NOAC and a Hip Gear screen fit in an NES cart. And I only have one open because the tool i was using (i broken tiny flathead screwdriver. it worked really well) broke. :( So I have an open cart, and a cart that will be closed forever.

Yes, one cart will house them all just fine.
