Nope no one has. Key reason being that most poeople dont want to fittle with a 50 some odd cart connector. I will admitte its a nice case, a little too think for my taste but looks very nice.

its still very small though Sparkfist, but yes, it's a little wide, maybe a vertical approach would fix that.

maybe we should try rounding off the extra mobo material to make smaller cases?... I'll take another look at my psone mobo. :?

we still need a 'thinking" smiley.

It's pretty nice, and it's kinda the way I'd like to build a snesp. The problem is how much it cost him to get the case made.

Well... last night I removed my cartridge slot last night (took about 3 1/2 hours). Desolder, solder suckers, and needle nose pliers are great things. My portable won't be quite that small, and the wooden case I plan on building definitely will add a little more size.

I think you could dumb-down the case for that thing and vacu-form it, that's how my SNES and Radica should come out, only with a modular screen in the front.
