Interesting, PAYPAL is being a "douche" because they are not letting me verify my account because they never sent me the two random numbers, they should have been recived over a week ago, NOW they locked my bank account from accessing paypal till i fax em some crap. Wow just wow way to go paypal, Not everyone has a fax machine................ and i am not walking all the way to staples just to fax them telling them they messed up.

I set my checking account up to be verified. I tried it 3 times before I checked the history on my account. Its something like easily missed and you might have done the same thing.

While I can check my accounts onine, and the area I'm talking about is called histroy. Look over it and try to find the place that they leave the info about when and from whom transactions where done. You'll know it when you see it as paypal is in caps and there is only about 2 cents put in the account. Simply verify that you received these two and your all set.

Ok, back to this, is there a tutorial somewhere on building a portible n64?, I'm searching for it now on these forums.


Btw: would this be the correct TYPE of battery?

yes, those would be good batteries for a n64p. http://classicgaming.com/nestable/ has a n64p guide, although it's not very detailed.

That acctually might be useful. Seriously like what NOT to do, like battery and voltage stuff.

well, a guide saying what would be correct to do would be better.....I mean, if you say it's bad to use a certain battery, let's say a car battery, then the reader of the guide still won't know what bettery he/she needs, juts that a car battery isn't the right one ......perhaps I'll make a guide later in the year, although I'm leaning more towards a GCp one rather than an N64p one, because RPGTKNick already made one that's good enough for anyone wanting to build an N64p.
