How do you get the case for the N64 portable?

Nintendo · Post by **Nintendo** » Mon Mar 07, 2005 7:31 pm

I'm so confused! I need to find a case but signface.com stinks! I need some sugestions. I heard one guy used a PSone case another used something from radio shack. I need something thinner! On a different note, did anybody see that guy on http://www.doomportables.org/completed.php who made a Gamecube portable? could somebody tell me how he did it? Ben Heckendorn says it would be thick.

I finally joined the forums, my new name is Nintendokid. I'm still trying to find some kind of case for my N64p! I keep waiting for that kit on benheck.com to come out. Also that guy who made the GCp should somehow mass manufacture them! I'd also like some other sugestions on how other people made the case.

<edit:^no n64 though>

for the cases perhaps you could bribe ben into makeing one for you as they say money talks and bull crap walks so PM him an offer

the " something from radio shack" was probubley a project box although the n64 can be "diffacult" so its relly not a good first project

Fishing box from K-Mart. You can get them to about 1.5 inches thick, and they are only about five dollars.

hmmm....mass-producing GCps......NEVER!!!!!!!!!!....

...it'd be WAY too hard

....I may make another one and sell it though

....(although it's probably not likely...)

as for the actual topic of this thread: I'd say use a project box. I used 'em for all 3 of my N64ps and they're great

It takes you that long Gamelver?

Actually, you can do it the quick and crappy way, or the somewhat slower and better way

Post by **gannon** » Mon Mar 07, 2005 10:05 pm
