--- Quote from: wiggy on May 18, 2012, 02:43:57 PM ---Despite feeling like my world is ending, I got a little work done today. Created info label for the bottom of the system and got a price quote. They'll be silver foil stickers just like on the original units :) I think I'm gonna use WIG-SNS-101 as the model number. I'll probably use something similar for any future systems as well. Still no specific name for the product. Suggestions are welcome ;D Meeting on Monday with manufacturer at about noon, Eastern Standard time. I should have at least an idea about pricing at that point. Looking at prices for wireless controller parts. I don't really want to redesign controllers since it would be extra work, extra $$$, and sorta pointless since the SNES controller is such an excellent design in the 1st place. If I do, it won't be a "re-design" so much as a revision that would allow me to more easily pack wireless bits inside and mount points for a discreet on/off switch & LED indicator. Packaging is on back burner. Not sure all of what will be included at this point, so it's hard to estimate size/shape. I will be offering S-Video and SCART upgrades to those that are interested. The parts are cheap, and I'll save headache by pre-wiring "kits" so that I can just slap em in without having to measure wire length and whatnot for every unit that I mod. It's 110% worth it IMO. I'll TRU and snap some conparisson shots this weekend between a few variants of the SFC running through both composite and S-video. Not much else going on. New rendering software doesn't like my video card. So no new renders yet. Gonna pull out the old PC and try on it instead. More to come... --- End quote --- what about super super nintendo sounds cool huh? |

Yeah, it sucks when you're really sick and want to work on fun stuff. :( How about the Super Nintendo Mini Deluxe for a name? I think this and most other shells could use some kind of name to fit the "premium" concept. Like NES Deluxe, Sega Genesis Deluxe, Sony Playstation Deluxe, etc. So would you be making new casts of the SNES controller shell? If so, when you get to the Nintendo Playstation, maybe you could make the controller look like the one in the prototype. |
| CommunistGamer:
he said he doesnt want to redesign the controller |
| TyrannicalFascist:
It's not a redesign, it's a recoloring with a different logo stamp. Recasting is just making copies of the existing shells. |
