My first handheld (N64P) is complete
Moderator:Moderators
Click image to go to my n64p's page.
I learned a lot, after breaking some n64s and two PSOne screens (first one ribbon cable woes, second one got chipped glass), and having to rip stuff up from gallons of hotglue.
Only thing that I think needs improvement are the controls, the analog stick mod didn't work out so well (semi works), and the buttons don't have a very good "feel"... just slight travel.
The old content of this post has been removed, I solved the issue.
Update: fixed analog stick

Re: My first handheld is complete
Very good job! It would look even better/cleaner if you put the screen on the inside!
Re: My first handheld is complete
That looks amazing!! I really love the look that is given off by the clean-cut white plastic. Very nice job.

Re: My first handheld is complete
excellent job. perhaps trying to finish the zenith lcd with a complete black finish would improve its look. nonetheless excellent first project.

Re: My first handheld is complete
Awesome... seeing all these n64s makes me really want to rip one apart. How do you have the l/r/z buttons set up? I'm starting to want to do one of these systems, I've never owned one.
If you're getting 404'd when trying to use the links in stickies, try this tutorial to find that juicy info.

I started it wayyyyy back when for this competition.1234 wrote:how long did it take you?
L and R are triggers on the side of the portable, Z is both clicking on the analog stick (it's a playstation (2? iirc) analog stick), and with a buttton on the bottom/back of the console.Zeturi wrote:How do you have the l/r/z buttons set up?

Very nice.
A truly wise man can entertain a thought without accepting it. A fool cannot withhold past judgments but instead closes his mine to new possibilities. Someone who wants to innovate simply needs to forget what everyone says isn't possible.

Re: My first handheld is complete
Having z be clicking the analog stick is a great idea! Does that work well for targeting in zelda, or do you just use the one on the back of the system?

I like it!
Re: My first handheld (N64P) is complete
Fixed analog stick, at the expense of clicking it for Z, as I could not find another analog stick that clicked. Oh well. Anyways, would it be alright to enter this in the Portable Palooza? I did start it for the last one, but I didn't get that far. I only decided to complete it recently. Also: How much would this go for if I were to sell it?
