Could you use a Retro-bit NES in place of an original NES?

Probably...but you'd need to modify the old case a bit to fit the retro-bit's board...and also extend the wires to meet the original ports.

I dunno what you'd describe as cheap, but price would depend on what all you'd want done.

As for someone to build a portable....I'm more or less available ;)

Well, all I want is a portable NES, using the Retro-bit system. I can mail the system and pay for the rest if it comes to it.

Well, that's obvious lol. I mean the specifics of what you'd want in the portable--such as appearance, what you'd like it made out of and things like that. ...When it comes to portables, it's all about customization 8)

Maybe a design like this?

I'd love one made of wood, of that's ok.

Yowza, wood eh?

Well...I'm not sure it could be made that small with wood. :lol:

But then, I've never used wood for anything more than molds for my cases.

Shoot. I bet I could make it work with the wood stuff...I do have all the tooling/mad skills to make it happen 8) (plus, I could use something else to do after I finish my current commission lol)
