What would you like in a Portable Nintendo 64?

Post by **SpongeBuell** » Thu Jul 21, 2005 12:26 am

I'm getting "the itch" to make a portable once again, and this time there will be something that makes this different from my previous portable: This one will have a screen. Yup, I have a 5" PSOne screen in its box, in my closet, just dieing to be used. So, lets say I do actually make one, what (reasonable) features would you want to see? Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,
SpongeBuell

Lessee...

1. A screen on the portable.
2. The ability to still work one month after it's done.
3. Logical location of cart slot.
4. The same with controls.

Love your VCSp btw...

I am SUCH a prick...all in good humor...

Maybe a portable with a D-pad?

Yeah, I've always been one for completeness, and the fact that ben's didn't have a d-pad always irked be a bit...Also, try and do as much thinking and processing as it takes to make is ass small as it can be. Ben's was mighty small, so you have competition. Also, the cart relocation makes for a mighty sexy portable. And try to come up with a truely original and catch name. And get me a beer while your up...

. it would be really sweet of you put a NOAC in it so it would be a NOAC N64p combo

Great suggestions, I'll do what I can!

As for a DPad, I'm pretty sure I could do that, but that was the hardest part with my atari, since it never is quite right

See if you can keep the exp. slot that is on the controller. Thats all thats really left to suggest.

Post by **Gamelver** » Thu Jul 21, 2005 10:44 am

all of the above features sound nice, but what you REALLY need is...LEDs on the RCA outputs/inputs

just like on the atari sp+ ; )!!!....and if you could somehow input a noac in there then that would be REALLY cool

.....of course, that would add to the overall size of the portable

...but not by too much
