ok so for christmas i am getting parts that were originally going to be used to build a Gamecube portable but i decided to put that on hold for a bit so i can start out with something a bit easier. here are the specs that i have come up with so far.
-5" PSone/Zenith LCD
-8500mAh 7.4v Li-Ions 4 cells with this protection circuit http://www.batteryspace.com/pcbfor74vli ... limit.aspx" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
-not sure on the case but i have a zn-40 on the way and currently have a zn-45 in my possession.
gotta wait a while before i can actually start so i might as well get some samples for the 3.3v line.

All I can say is plan, plan, plan. Make sure you know the size of the components before building the case, for obvious reasons.

well i got 20 days to plan so thats good i guess, but i wanna start it now

68 uF at 6V I believe.

[joeyjoe9876]

ok so i trimmed down the N64's motherboard quite a bit today!
it's a tad bit larger then the gamecube motherboard, also started wiring the controller. i'll get some pics up tomorrow.. also gotta get the cart slot relocation pics up..
my question for today is when relocating the expansion pack is 30 awg wire good enough?
