An interesting idea. I haven't done all too much planning for this portable, so the Retron may be a better option, as looking at Teardowns of the Retron the motherboard is much smaller than the Model 3, and seems more robust. Thanks for the note.

Really creative idea, and very well executed!

This is brilliant documentation dude! Might have to get myself a Saturn soon…

So as the title suggests, I came up with a concept for a Mega Drive Portable. I may use a Genesis Model 3 that’s been region modded, although it seems more likely that I will use a MegaRetron, as the Mobo is much smaller and would be much easier to work with. There will be 4 18650 Cells inside...

Either could work

Brilliant interior decor 10/10

Update: Now being down a laptop and a soldering iron (this project has been a real shitstorm so far), the project is on hold until I get my hands on replacements. In the meantime, I’ve been thinking of names for the console (yes I know very productive), and I have narrowed it down to drumroll...

I had a brilliant one where I somehow trimmed it perfectly but then ended up breaking it in half. Wish I didn‘t rage throw it out now

TOREEEEEE

Update: The laptop I had all the cad files stored on is now fried, rendering loads of work useless. :’| I’ll be back with hopefully more positive updates once I remake the model on a new laptop

Sorry for long time without update, I’ve had a lot going on in my life, but I have progress! I have - Swapped the Vacuum formed case for a 3D printed one, as I now have a Printer! - Designed a case (Pictures soon!) - Ordered most of the part, some of them have arrived - Thinking of better names...

Brill! Ya’ll are dedicated af!

Oh this is one of the most gorgeous portables I’ve ever seen!

This is gonna be more hype than the final smash character reveal
