well, it was hard for me the first time, since I didn't have much help, but after that, it is pretty easy :)
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

Congratulations turbotax!

you have a amazing gamecube portable!

I started on my GCp but came to the conclusion that unless you had cash to spare for li-polys it would be impossible to run on nicads or NiMH's so i lost interest after i got rid off all lower connectors on mb and rewired the voltage board and slimmed the dvd down a bit.

It seems like its very possible!

Just some questions,

Did you end up doing the white led mod for the lcd? i think it looks like it with the zelda screenie but not sure! Looks so bright!

What sort of battery life do you get?

Are you able to charge the batterys while playing? i havent seen a circut around here that allows you to just plug in if battery is looking low.

Thanks for any info!

Keep squeezin those lemons if it means you pop out stuff like this :o)

Indeed Ni-MHs are the crap 8) yes i did a white led mod i put foil behind the screen light diffuser thing like gamey said
i also have a switch for the brightness mod so i can flip it on and off whenever
and you can play while the batteries are charging but you have to turn it off and flip another switch(it uses the original GC power supply) on a side note its real easy to make a car adapter i just put a GC power plug on a car adapter i found around

thanks for the positive comment
