Here is my finished VCSp, I designed it after Bens Vagabond.

It has everything but the vlink port.

It has an aux/AC in
It has both joystick ports and both difficulty switches for both ports.
It has a port to plug in a nim battery charger and recharge the onboard batteries.
It has a black and white switch. Which might not seem usefull but it is with some games.
It has an audio/video in and out jack.
It has only one fire button that is connected to a switch which lets you select from normal fire or paddle fire.
It has an onboard paddle.
Also game select and reset buttons
I also used seperate on/off switched for the TV and the VCS. So you can power on only the tv or only the game or both.

Also it is small it is 1.5 inch thick, 7 inches tall and 4 3/8 inches wide.

The only thing left to do is make some decals. and an Atari VCSp logo

Thanks for all of the help from the people on this forum.

Please let me know what you all think of it.

Here is a new link to the construction photolog as the IP has changed.
I will make it into a site with instructions soon.

Now I can make the 512 game multi cart.
I think I will also buy a Krok cart. the look very cool.

Stay tooned. I accuired a CNC PSp case as well as a CNC SNES case from Ben. They are very cool. And will be the next portables that I build.

good job. be sure to put it on atariage, if you haven't already (I think you are registered there, as your name sounds familiar. If not, get one and show it off)
