Why not use the original snes instead of a "mini" it seems to have less parts on the older one?
Re: snes vs snes mini
Because it's considrably larger.

Re: snes vs snes mini
but the board in the original has less parts and a removable controller port?

Re: snes vs snes mini
But it is heavier and will make for a larger bulkier uncomfortable portable. The number of parts on a board doesn't matter when making a portable...

Re: snes vs snes mini
It's also less power efficient and requires a regulator board to work.
In otherwords, it is not even close to ideal.

Would you like a professional looking custom case for your portable? I may be able to help you. Check out this link:

Well........ No dude it does not require a regulator board because I have it hooked up to a cordless drill battery now and it works fine,plus if you're talking about the 220 in-line wired in series capacitors from the output then I agree. I don't understand what you mean though, it doesn't seem like anyone has actually tried to use a 1992 second edition snes board
And yes I know it's larger than the mini, I just wanted to try.
Re: snes vs snes mini
snes rev-1 boards are pretty small too (not as small as mini but a big difference in size vs. snes rev1 and 2 boards)
Look at the grey cart ejection thing in the middle of the system. If it says eject in white lettering on it, its the smaller board.
You can prolly get these cheaper than minis too since its the old design, and most of these cases are yellowed to hell

Re: snes vs snes mini
You've got that backwards. Eject molded in is rev 2, smaller board. Kyo calls it 1chip, presumably it only has one PPU chip.wallydawg wrote:snes rev-1 boards are pretty small too (not as small as mini but a big difference in size vs. snes rev1 and 2 boards)

Yes, or you can check out the date on the board under the rf shielding. The first board had one ppu this one has 2 ppu, a cpu and 4 other large chips by sony. then a bunch of smalls

eject lettering molded on it with grey regular size board
edit: ok I opened up all 4 of my reg snes (3 molded eject, 1 written in white) and they all have the same size board. Clearly I dont know what I'm talkinga about and don't know what to believe now.

Problem. Kyo (or whoever he got it from) was wrong. There's a more definite way to tell but I forgot what it was.wallydawg wrote:white lettering on the eject button smaller boardXCVG wrote:You've got that backwards.

Re: snes vs snes mini
Unfortunately you must check the board manually for the date. It is located under the rf shielding
