I think Dave (Dkap) did one. And no one has done an Odyssey, Odyssey 2, or SMS, I think.

SMS cartridges can be played on a Game Gear with a plug in converter IIRC.

Well by the same token, Nomads play Genesis games, yet we still make portables of those. I'm just saying that no one has physically torn a part a SMS and portablized it from scratch is all! :P

Or a Saturn, that hasn't been done. Is it really as impossible as they say it is?

The Oddysey can be made portable. I could do it. It runes off of batteries or an ac adapter but I don't have one so, yeah! I'll start tonight!
EDIT: Done it took me 2 hours!

I don't know about the Odyssey 2 though...

Oddesy portable wouldn't be prudent, as dice and overlays are used. It isn't a game SYSTEM, it's more of a game SUPPLEMENT in my opinion...making a portable when you need overlays and dice isn't seem necessary or very wise...unless you're going for the novelty factor, which would be interesting.
