techknott's Portable Dreamcast April 2011

Post by techknott » Thu Apr 14, 2011 3:03 am

Just gonna date them now as naming them is a bit of a chore to me. Also, no longer doing commissions after a bad(and expensive) experience. But all my projects are still for sale as I build them.

4800mah Li-ion Cells, charge and play, original backlight, built in memory card. Still gotta put some mesh behind the air vents. Originally used transfer decals for logo's and lettering the buttons on top, but decided to remove them as they look pretty bad imo. Took approx 2 weeks to build.

Vid to follow.

Very nice. I like how it mimics the controller grooves.

Doesn't look DIY at all, highly professional job there. Great work!
