Size???

Post by Littleman41390 »

I thinking about making one but I was wondering if anbody could tell me the average size of one of these portable ones. ( I don't wanna go out and buy an N64 and then find out I need a book bag to fit it in.)

Or he could leave his questions to his own threads....

Well.... It depends. Here's 3 examples of N64p's... That should give you SOME idea of possible sizes... It all depends on your budget, and patience.

Bens was appx. 9 x 5 x25 thanks for the help. I think I'm gonna do it.

I had an idea that would be frickin awesome if it would work but I don't have my hopes too high. I thought about making it have wireless lan connection to other ones. I could build them as just recievers. My thinking would be to not send the whole game to the others but rather just the screen data. The recievers could then send back the data coming out of the controller. Will some tell me if this has any chance of working.

That was Triton who did a N64 in a PS case. I am trying to get a N64 in a pencil box, and its going good. I desoldered all ext. connecters from the board, and just wired directly for composite. I hard-wired the power to the board. I don-t have a P1 \controller port, because there is an internal controller. I rewired the P2, and am not including P3 and P4. For the controller, i am using momentary switches w/ the chip mod, and a 2.5" hip gear screen.
