Poor motherboard being too long and all :( Cases came. Now that's progress! Getting somewhere. PS4 nubs on 3ds sliders <3 Tomorrow I hope to get the mobo mounted and batteries wired, then get the controller hooked up and try it out.

You can bend or curve lexan with a heat gun, but don't expect to get compound curves from it :p good luck!

I agree with Ratchet Russian, the Wiip is the way to go now. Read the stuff in the wiki here and you will be highly satisfied. Now, as far as a basic order for portablizing, it really depends what you're doing and how you like to work, and the wii trimming will complicate it, but i work...

Do those lcd driver boards work now? Back when I used to be in the game they were just coming out and they were expensive. That laptop has to be the best looking thing SS ever made lol. Anyone know how he did the hinges? Ackley, you should put some pics up!

If you can fit everything in there and have a screen that will fit in your old laptop she'll then you should be able to make it work. Note that it's quite difficult or often not plausible to get laptop LCDs to work off of the kind of signals game consoles output. For the cover you could just go...

Little bit of progress this morning. Desoldered all the ports, trimmed off most of what I need to, and relocated the FMCB card. I also played around with FMCB and OPL and got all of my games working so that's good. Can't wait to make some more progress, Just need to hack off that usb corner and...

I should clarify, the board will stick up out of the top of the case by about 1/2", similar to the way n64 cart slots stick out of the sl68. I believe it is nearly impossible to trim the 79001 to 4". Sonys boards are so densely packed with stuff that I think really the only thing we can trim is...

Figured I'd get this going while I wait for some more parts. This handheld will be built in an SL68p. I intend to do a folding top panel, DS style, with a 5" Dalian screen mounted as 3.5" is a little too small imo for ideal play on a ps2. Since there will be no screen in the bottom half, I...

Let's all agree to drop it and hope it sticks this time :P So Noah, do the 3ds sliders work fine on your wiiner?

Sounds like I may not have all the info either, though I still respect RDC. He has explained the majority of the ps2 controller wiring to me via pm so that I can do it myself instead of using his board, and that was pretty cool. SS, if there's not one already, would you consider doing a quick...

I agree with downing, RDC is not trying to make a large profit off the backs of kids. If you count his R&D time and the cost of components and the time to take everything off controller boards and put it back on the new ones, he's really getting nothing more than hourly pay at that point. That...

I understand, however the reason I am asking specifically about the sliders and how you got them to work is I'm not building a gcp and I need to get them working on ps2 :p

So Aurelio, are you integrating a microcontroller based solution for the 3DS sliders or is it direct wiring like a lot of people actually seem to be? Have you noticed any problems with that method that really do necessitate the use of the microcontroller?

Sounds pretty cool and obviously a ridiculously cheap price for the effort that probably goes in, however I suspect if you want to mass produce and injection mold them you will end up raising your prices fairly significantly :P Anyways I've derailed this thread to an extreme extent so my...

Welp, it does say $25 in that thread linked, but that's very old. $50 seems like a lot of money but I very much doubt he makes much of a profit either way, pretty low margin area to try to profit in lol. However, hopefully his ps2 board is still $25, because the ps2 controllers are kind of a...

I've never read anyone saying anything bad about RDCs products' quality and I've used them before with great success O.o I always thought his prices were more than fair, especially ~$25 for his controller boards, considering he does all the design, pays to have boards made, then hand desolders...

RDC designed a board a few years ago with a microcontroller onboard. I heard that when wiring things directly there were issues with the joystick "crawling" or sometimes not having max reach at the edges. Here's a link. Maybe gman will have some more insight since he uses them so often :P It...

Lookin good Noah. How are you handling the 3DS sliders? Was a proper fix aside from a microcontroller solution ever discovered for them?
