I've been slowly writing up a bunch of how-tos/tutorials. I'll get em up soon (hopefully).

It was a joke for making "fake" N64 carts ;)

What's funny is that I read your post and in my head it sounded like that clip :P Just wasn't sure exactly how you meant :)

Thank you. I meant to add a credit, but my dumbass didn't bookmark your DA page when I DL'd it. N64guy gave the link. You've got some cool stuff :)

Added a credit for ya!

I've been meaning to get a DA page up for years :-\

Don't worry, I was to send you a few resources for the beast wars but I totally forgot about it (like the bam! logo).

Things are slowly coming together.  I think I'll do a pre-order on these in the next couple of days.

Thanks guys!

Parts are on their way.  I'm hand building the first run of boxes and the instructions will be in PDF format (so conserve paper).  I'll have 10 kits initially.  Hopefully they sell well ;D

Have you decided on a price yet?

To be honest when I first saw your post with the pics I really didn't notice your logo on the box...I actually thought it was a real kit that you had bought from japan or something lol.

Good job!

Thanks!  

Price for the kit will likely be 60 plus shipping (which will be cheap since it only weighs a few ounces), 90-100 for me to mod yours for you, and 110-130ish for a pre-modded unit (sorta depends on what prices I can find since I'd be buying used consoles, obviously).

Not set in stone, but it'll be close to that. The kit will include the adapter ribbon cable, new SP 101 LCD, 2-way brightness switch & all the wire needed to put it all together. Instructions will be in the form of a PDF in the spirit of Eco-friendliness :)

The switch doesn't need to be installed (having it will mean that you can't use the GameCube link cable or anything else that uses the slots on top), but it's in the kit either way. You'll just have to choose between one of the 2 brightness options if you don't use it.

The casing does need a moderate amount of modding (i.e. cutting plastic bits) to make everything fit. It can be done with an Xacto, but a dremel is WAY more helpful.  Obviously that sort of modding is permanent, but the original screen can still be reinstalled at some point if you should ever want to.

Here you go!
