Re: Portable-making contest again?
I'm going certainly for two systems, probably not three due to time constraints. Toying for my second system as either N64 in my case, or GX4000 in my case; or trying to make an N64 system even smaller than SS's is going to be (in a small formed case) - I have some very slimline proper analogue joysticks now which will really help. Decisions, decisions!

Re: Portable-making contest again?
I'll be entering a N64p but even if I don't win (Probably won't look who I'm running against!) at least I'l have something to play orcarina of time and Super Smash Bros on when I'm in the car.
I haven't been here in awhile, and looking back it's one of the worst ideas I ever had. I'm back and I'll be here for awhile, I was quite active 1 year ago and I hope to become that again.
Re: Portable-making contest again?
I hope we show the top ten winners this time instead of just the top three, maybe then we can see how noobs (like me) will place in the comp. Even better, would be to show the rankings of everybody! Since there will only be about 30 portables in the end.
EDIT: Fixed my crappy grammar.

Re: Portable-making contest again?
Would it be ok if I made my nintendo 64 portable, took pictures and video, and then sold it before the contest is over but still use it as my entry. I want to try to make another portable but my only chances of making 2 are selling my current one that I am working on.

Re: Portable-making contest again?
I think that'd be fine. Why wouldn't it? You still made it, and have proof. Make sure to take pics from all angles, and a thorough video, that way people won't say could we see it from this angle. Then you'd be like I sold it. 
lol.
lol.
Re: Portable-making contest again?
Even if I can scavenge enough money to build a portable, I'm not going to compete. A n00b64p can't compete against something with a small nice case and heavily cut-down board.

It's more of a contest for the 7, 8, 9, and 10th spots.XCVG wrote:Even if I can scavenge enough money to build a portable, I'm not going to compete. A n00b64p can't compete against something with a small nice case and heavily cut-down board.

Re: Portable-making contest again?
I think we should just have a whole Top (However many people enter)
Just so everyone gets to see how many points they got.
Sure it will break a few spirits, but oh well.
Someone is gonna lose anyway!

I never actually realized how hard the case is, and how much harder it is to mount everything inside of it
