I need help getting started!

[Jørgen]

Hello all console modding people!
I am new to this site as well as new to modding consoles, but i think it looks interesting and i want to create a portable console.
So i wondered, what should i know before i start? What consoles should i choose? Where can i get the parts? Whats the price? etc..
I live in Norway but can i still order from the places you do?

Ive seen that benheck got a book released, will i learn everything i need in it and help me getting started?

Thanks in advance, regards Jørgen.

Good luck, Jorgen.

I am in exactly the same situation as you, except I am not a console modder, just a humble sage who wants to build a boombox of several systems, plus a universal controller. May the Force be with you.
