im probably going to use a tackle box from a kmart or something for the case. saw the way people used it on these forums, and seems like a really good idea. Any input would be nice. this is my 1st portable (obviously)
here are some of my pre anything schematics.
front
Bottom
Back
How will this work for a snesp?

bad
you would need more room between the controller and screen and maybe more room up top for the screen
bit of advice. on a first portable, take plenty of time to measure your parts and what you want your case dimensions to be. or it can be a huge pain in the ass
also cart slot can't be put up so high

Yeah, like me! I recently downloaded a free 30 day trial of Adobe Illustrator just to play around with it and I made some life-size scans of the parts I'd need for another SNESp. That program's great! Very professional though, so there's been a bit of a learning curve I'm trying to get past.

If you're a n00b at this, screwing the top of a controller to the front of the case might be a good idea. That way, you worry about a lot less. That's what I did (although I never finished my SNESp yet because my mother shoved it into the deepest reaches of my closet), & It actually worked REALLY well!

i was thinking of doing that, but instead of screwing it to the top, have it come from the bottom so the buttons show through.atari2600a wrote:If you're a n00b at this, screwing the top of a controller to the front of the case might be a good idea.
