Hey everyone, this is Downing! I figured I'd make a post here about the upcoming Retro gaming convention coming up in September in Hartford, CT. Last year @Gman , @CrazyGadget and myself attended the event for BitBuilt's debut which was an amazing time and I am happy to announce that the three...

Not bad! It took me a few tries but it eventually got easier! The trick is to put a few drops of ISO on the button first, a drop of ink and then just dab with the paint brush. You can get some very vibrant colors from it!

Thanks for this build log! Sorry it took me so long to find it! TBH, it's easier just to wire up the whole LED PCB to the main Motherboard and see if it works after the fact. Putting power too it won't do anything because it requires code from the N64 PMS. RGB LED's most of the time require a...

Well everyone, after what seemed like an eternity and an endless number of hours of design, testing, prep and a successful Kickstarter, the dream has finally come true! So what happens now? Well, I first want to thank @cheese for setting-up this Sub-Forum specifically for this kit's assembly...

Amazing build man! Such a perfect balance of Old School and New Era that pulls hard on the nostalgia heart strings in so many ways! That flex cable is amazing (if I say so myself ), such a time saver! Do you have any stand alone pics of the brackets you used to mount the cart slot? Looks like...

Not terrible for 4 days in! Thank You!

Yes! Thank you for your support!

Feels like it's been for forever since being able to make a post here about a completed project, but this is kind of a big one for me! It's been well over a decade since the last time I gave this concept a serious try and failed horribly. But with the new techniques and smart people like @Gman...

Amazing work man, good job!

Holy crap dude...that's an update! Haha, amazing work!

Thanks man! This was a fun one to work on!

Hey guys what's up! Sorry this is kind of a direct copy and paste of blog post but I felt there should be a post here about this project! This is my latest completed portable Nintendo 64, with big help from @Gman and @Aurelio! This is my 16th finished portable N64 in my almost 15 years of...

Beautiful work!

Hey guys! So yeah, I understand this isn't a portable console by any stretch of the imagination. But it is one that @CrashBash and I have been working on for the better part of 2 years. Well, one year of actual work anyway as my move kind of put the project on hold for most of 2023. That said...

Diggin' this layout! Love the internal 3D printed brackets and mounting structure. And man, doesn't using those flex junction boards make life a hell of a lot easier! Very nice work all around!
