Pics of the SNESP I was working on

Post by atkafighter »

Hi,
These pictures are of the SNESP I was working on. Maybe you can find out why it does not work. It was working and one morning took my battery out of the charger and... nothing the screen came on but the snes does not. Im looking around for another board just in case I never fix this one.
Anyways here are the pictures!

This is the front of the portable. My design and extremesonic's are exactly alike (he beat me to it). I used some leftover clear acrylic for the plates. I like it because it looks like all the parts are floating in you hands when you play it. I was going to paint the inside of it black (psp style) but I didnt want trouble with fingerprints. To finish it all i needed to do was build the walls (out of aluminum or more clear acrylic), mount L and R buttons, cut out the controller ports, add the power switch, cut back the screws and bolt it together, round the corners a lot more, and mount the battery somehow.

Here is the profile. It really is quite thin. I would have done a screen riser but thats pretty hard considering I'm cutting all this acrylic with a hacksaw. I also have a few inches to hack off the bottom.

Here is the back. I kept the control board intact, because I was going to cut out holes for the second player controller. I was also going to put in a switch and let the first player insert a controller. The cartridge slot was moved and all I was going to do was mount it with 90 degree brackets (its taped for now). The L and R buttons have not been mounted yet and I still can't decide on a comfortable place to put them.
Anyway thats the portable that died for no apparent reason. I bypassed the fuse and it still doesnt work so I'm pretty sure its gone. If anyone has any advice, or know how to get it working again I would appreciate the help.

Check all of the power connections and such with your multimeter. If that fails, you may have fried the SNES.
