Does anyone have any incite on what Ben is currently working on (perhaps Ben could answer this himself :roll: )? Is it finally time to finish the pinball machine? I mean really, I can't think of anything else that he could portablize. Except maybe a Coco 3 or something like that.

Personally, I would really like to see some new handhelds, but I'm sure Ben is running out of options for different consoles.

Well, even-though you may not realize it, ben also does customer jobs. He might not show every single one, but he does do other stuff. :lol:

Back up about 5 or 10 years. Commodore 64 laptop. To-date, Ben says it's kicking his butt. But hopefully he hasn't turned it into a bastard child like the Dreamcast-Away.

And yeah Ben seems to only post information about notable portables he does. Really who'd want to know about the 500th VCSp Ben's made, when there are people that ask him to make an Apple IIGS laptop, out of the original hardware no less! Or the infamous one handed Xbox360 controller.

I would assume that he would post pics of anything new and different. I realize he makes stuff for other people who email requests, but I was just wondering if any insiders new of his next newsworthy item.

I've got a few suggestions if he needed any but I'm thinking about doing them. His would be a lot better but thne If I decide to make them mine'll seem like crap if he does it first. XD

It's a controller type thing, to allow accessibility. Yes, the Access controller is coming, but this for a different kind of game.

Building 2 of them, finishing the second tomorrow... They look quite cool. Likely they will be revealed at the same time I do a convention in a couple weeks... more details to come.

-Ben

(PS: Need to get them done so I can play GTA on Tuesday!)
