My Psp

Post by schmellyfart »

Well, here it is
Image

I just hot-glued the controls on top because I just wanted to get done before we went to NAU in flagstaff for marching band (Three hour drive in school buses. fun fun). Evuntially I'll mount the controllers on the inside with the playstatoin buttons and all of that jazz.

The speaker is under the holes by the start, select and analog buttons

The back

The Side with the charge jack on the left and the power/charge swutch in the right

And finally some of those cool lookin' pictures

Put buttons over the tact switches next time. Those would hurt after a while. It is good overall.

Thanks guys!

Klefmung: I am going to do that when I get around to it. The tact switches didnt hurt my thumbs after playing DDR on heavy for a while.

Demonofaj: haha. btw its sChmellyfart :D. It only costed ~$75. I got an awesome deal on the PSOne screens, 30 bucks for 7 screens, although, not all of them work (some are fixable though) $30 is still good for one screen.

good work

excellent use of the PS1 analog control cursor mushroom. The tactile switches may need some hot glue and buttons. you may try the triggers from the NES standard controller or PS1 controller. Is it backlit or frontlit with LEDs?

You know, part of your screen gets cut off. The screen hole you cut, isnt perfectly square, so it cuts some of the screen off. ;)

I know the screen hole isnt perfectly square, my dremel battery died so I had to use a hacksaw blade. Actually non of the screen gets cut off. It may appear that way but the part that is covered is that little section of the screen where nothing is displayed.
