Portable NES inside a dvd player
« on: May 21, 2014, 10:11:44 am »

I bought this portable dvd player at a flea market a month ago. Today I finally took it apart, ripped out the dvd drive and stuffed an NES clone in it. It has a large battery at the bottom, but I am not sure how long it will last. My guess is: long enough to watch a movie, so definitely long enough to play some games!

Thank you for the compliment :3 With most of these projects it's a matter of getting the right parts. If you can find a nes on a chip for example you can fit it in almost any portable dvd player. Just take out the dvd drive and connect some wires.

Yeah, Ashen is one of the best GC modders out there. If you check out his channel you'll see a few more of these plus a PS2 and an N64. :D

I like the fact it is based on a portable dvd player. It makes it easier to find parts. You don't have to buy the screen, then build the shell, etc :)

However, I agree with StreetWalrus: GameCube version wanted :P
I own: 83+ ; 84+SE ; 76.fr ; CX CAS ; Prizm ; 84+CSE
Sorry if I answer with something that seems unrelated, English is not my primary language and I might not have understood well. Sorry if I make English mistakes too.
