Worklog First portable in the making...

[Lukas]

Hey everyone,

This is my first real post on the forums! Im starting to work on my first portable, a N64.

Heres the first real progress made: relocated the cartridge slot and tested it. Case design coming later, hoping to have it printed soon!

Small update: Board has been successfully trimmed and tested!

Do you plan to perform the ram swap? I see two expansion packs there

Depending on how thick I make the case it may be needed, but I already a did board bend on an expansion pack so hopefully a ram swap won’t be needed.

Update: Preliminary design for the case is finished. Need to touch up a few things before printing, but i hope to print soon. Obviously modeled after a GBA but with a 1.8x scale. Going to be using original N64 controller buttons and a Gamecube joystick.
