Alright, here is my third topic on my flip64, hopefully this one doesnt get attacked by people wanting to win an argument. I dont mind a few off-topic posts here and there, but when people continue to argue about who was on topic, it gets REALLY annoying.
So, I left off at I think the week before thanksgiving, and I just got my screen. Its one of the 3.5'' screens from ebay, are they all basically the same? I would like to use RGB, but I dont know where I should be hooking everything up. Here is a datasheet I found that could be the right chip. http://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet- ... W9903.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The numbers printed are: TW9910 Im pretty sure that is the part number, thats what came up with results on a google search.
And here is a picture of the board:
In case you havnt been following this project before, here is my cut up N64 mobo:
Here is my psp-style analog stick that I will use (compared to the original N64 one):
And this is what I have for the case so far:
I have the paint, screen, speakers/amp, and controller parts. I can build most of it, but I wont be able to completely paint it till I get the batteries. And I have no money
Any questions/comments, please reply!

Re: The flip64. Finally* going somewhere. *Hopefully
Alright. Samll update, I put the first coat of white painton it, after getting the curves and everything smooth, and the way I want it.
No pics, however, because my computer broke, and I'm using a pentuim 200 Mhz, 48 mb ram, running win 2000 right now.... It's so slow! hahahahaha
I'm hopefully going to get a volume control worked out for my amp, I have no batteries, and I think thats about it. Hold tight, pics should come soon

The only proper way to read forums of any kind In a basement or your bedroom, on dial-up. And with your parents or sibling yelling at you to get off the computer so they can use the phone.bentendo64 wrote:I'm using a pentuim 200 Mhz, 48 mb ram, running win 2000 right now....

This. I remember starting big downloads at 11 P.M. and just letting it run all night. File would usually be there by morning.Life of Brian wrote:The only proper way to read forums of any kind In a basement or your bedroom, on dial-up.

Nice job cutting down the PCB. Where are the batteries going to go?

Re: The flip64. Finally* going somewhere. *Hopefully
Thanks for all the comments!
Anyway, I just found out that the amp that I bought isn't stereo So there's really no point in trying to put a volume control on it if I want stereo sound. Hahaha Does anyone have a part number to a cheap stereo sound amp?
And so, here is the picture of my case right now, all I need is a little bit more sanding, then (hopefully) the final coat of white paint. Just to let you know, the final color is not white
I also think I need to paint my control nub.......
That's all I have for now! Oh! does anyone know if I can input RGB on this screen? I thought someone did it before with this same screen, unless the cheap Chinese company all of a sudden switched the circuitry in these things.....
Its a heat sink from an SNES on the 7805 regulator, pounded flat. (and then another layer of it added on to reach the ram)ihakr wrote:What did you use to replace the heat sink?

I just re-read your old thread and I have to say - I like where this is going! Definitely one of the more unique portables once it's done.

What analog stick is that? I'm guessing it's sliding?
Also, this is a very unique portable. I love how it looks.

Its an analog from a Mad Catz GC controller, and I made a disk out of epoxy putty, then used gorilla glue to put that white button on top of it. I might change it, because it might not be strong enough.
This is going to be an extremely tight squeeze to get everything in the case, but I guess the N64 controller wings add a bit of extra room

That's.... insanely genius..... It must feel great, being tilting, plus it has a small cap! That's exactly what I wanted in my portable!
I know this is gonna turn out amazing. You are very creative.

Alright, small update, I found an audio amp, part number lm4816. The only issue is that its very hard to find..... Anyways, I'm broke, and I dont know if I can do much without my batteries, because I think its important to know how big the case needs to be before I build it
I may reconsider my original paint idea, because this looks amazing!
And I am going to put the back side of the N64 wings on it. (obviously )
You can check out the link on my signature for a bit more information.
Oh! and this is the color I'm gonna paint it:
