A simple box to begin with.

Metal Mario · Post by **Metal Mario** » Mon Mar 02, 2009 4:40 pm

Alright, so I've been working on getting together the logistics of building a portable Nintendo 64 for quite some time now. I've more or less got everything set up, but I've just hit one major snag, that being the construction of a case for my portable.

I know that it would turn out a lot better in the end if I build my own case, but I know that can't happen.

Anyways, I'd just like some help picking out a good case to put my portable in. It can be anything from a tupperware container to a project box, I'd just like some ideas from the pros at this.
I'd also like to know the best method of using the PSOne screen. Do I use it like a clamshell? Or GBA style with the screen in the middle of the box?

OK, thanks for your help guys, and sorry for seeming a little newbish on the subject. I'm just dying to play N64 on the go.

Try the ZN45 case, it's a prefab polycase, and it's beautiful and awesome...
(also, a n64p does not require logistics)

Take your pick... i'd go with the AG series, but feel free to have your own free will

I know a lot of people have made ZN case portables, though, so i bet more people could help you out. The n64 will fit in a ZN45 case...

Wow, thanks! Those are great alternitives!

OK, so ZN and AG is the way to go?

Whoops, hehe..
maybe if you chopped down the mobo to about the size of Sifuf's (fat chance) then you could fit the mobo in there.
Sorry, i wasn't really thinking about the n64 when i recommended the AG series.
They are nice cases though, i have a few (never bothered sticking an n64 mobo in there)

It would fit in an AG series with a ton of work.

Sorry, forgot about your mod...
How's that going, by the way? You haven't posted any more pics about that thing.
