Holy Crap!

I think it kinds great as is.  Looks classy with its wood color.

Mushroom knob has been varnished and will stay that way

So, I've been dying to finish up my DMG SP, and this is exactly what I needed to do so.  WOOT!

[CommunistGamer]

Ah, ribbin cable what can you not fix?

[wiggy]

I'll try most anything

I don't always succeed (see my hacked wireless retrobit SNES controller fuckup) not to mention other projects that never even make appearances here

[CommunistGamer]

how big is the board for the sp, can it be built into a gbpocket or color instead?

[wiggy]

No way you'd get it into a pocket, maybe into a color.  The thing is that it requires sparing a small about of the original board in order to use the original button hardware (which is how I prefer to do it, since it'll feel just like it did in the first place).  Some folks just replace the old hardware with micro switches, but it'll feel COMPLETELY different then the original silicone tactile switches.

[CommunistGamer]

i love the silicoln switches also, but i asked because i wanted to make a pokemon gameboy color advance for myself.

[wiggy]

It'll be a LOT of work. 

Speaking of, this was a blast.  Just gotta do that one more time (hopefully).

[wiggy]

Let there be light!

Don't take this in an awkward kind of way....but that set-up is sexy as all hell.

Well done sir!

[wiggy]

LOL, thank you!

Off to scope out some mini track/recessed lighting for the ceiling.  I'll post my findings...

While trying to clean my studio space today I came across an old Intec PS2 flip screen in about 10 pieces.  Don't even know where it came from, but it's been here for a least 10 years. So, I hodge-podged I together to make sure it works, and it did!  Woot!  

Of course I couldn't let such a wonderful piece of crap go to waste, so I mocked this all up.



All mocked up in foam core for now. Gonna play it a bit tonight then tear it down do I can measure all the panels and then cut plywood panels later this week.

Oh well, so much for cleaning...

Super Famicom mini arcade. I can dig it, though I would suggest a Genesis instead due to the superb SHMUPS.

[wiggy]

If I were gonna make it with a proper stick and button setup, then I just might have. Hell, I prolly woulda put both a SNES and Genny in there

Glut of SNES units is mostly why a SNES went inside.

[madrocsz]

That 2nd NTSC snes turned sideways behind the rest, poor guy

Seeing your setup is what makes me afraid when I set up all mine finally, I am crazy anal about things having their own space etc and feel it will either take up too much space or not be to my liking
