The Mini SNES consoles generally cost more than the PSone, to start with... right?
And it looks like the wiring is a bit more complex, at least he says it is more challenging to build a SNESp than a PSonep.

This should be a poll.
I am personally making a PSonep. It's cheaper for me. (I have something like 33 PS games, 0 SNES games.

They might be. I'm still in the stages of getting basic wiring done with my PSp.
As for building the thing a PSone will cost you $25-35, not bad at all. You'll also be looking for a screen of which you can find out about.
Just do the PSp its less wiring, cheaper and the sooner you get a portable done the sooner you'll be able to enjoy it.

My PSOnep is up to about $90-$100 CAD.
Money went something like this. (All prices are in CAD...)
PSOne : $20
Extra Controlers : $30 (Buggered my other ones
Screen : $50 (I know but i'm canadian and its hard to find a PSOne Screen here in Canada)
LEDs : $5 (Found them at a local store dirt cheep)
Buttons : $0 (got them out of a old VCR)
All in all not a bad price at all

PSonePs are cheap, i think not counting the price of the psone and screen and stuff i spent about 10$ on mine just tact switches and a 5$ 3rd party controller (used controllers are even cheaper less than $2.99 at gamestop)

I paid.. lemme see...
$30 for my PSone
$2 for a memory card
$0 soldering iorn, solder, braid
$0 case materials
$0 for information (thx, everyone. Gotta love the internet.)
and I still need to get:
-an Intec screenpad ($20)
Most of this has been paid with money I earned by doing yard work and stuff like that, so I have only paid about $10 out of my wallet.
