So far I've bought a screen! Now I have to figure out what system to attach to it.

The only screen I can get at a decent price locally is huge. I can't afford a PS1 screen, been considering a Pustom. But they aren't really that cheap.

I've gathered the screen, the N64 and I've bought a case.


If only Palmer would ship it out, every PM I send I feel like the freaking IRS or a collector for the mob! :lol:
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.

I've got a screen, battery, and console. I could also easily whip up a case.

What's pathetic is I don't have a soldering iron.
what is this i don't even

I am very happy, you gave me the last two things I needed to start.

Good news- I found some portable DVD players that might be usable! Bad news- I can't afford either.

I really can't say with words how much I want to do this, but I can't find ANYTHING cheap and my dad is such a dick about it! Anyone willing to donate a PS1 screen to the cause.like that'll ever happen, ever :P

Anyway, as I've said, good luck to you all. To make this post not blogging, who do you think is going to win? Shockslayer seems to have a plan and a small board, but asthetics is key and all of his previous portables looked like crap. Except #6 and Commisioned, those were okay. The ZN45 GCp was okay too IIRC.
