NEW PS2 Portable

[Gman]

I began this one on commission 7 months ago! I slacked off a bunch because good case work is nearly impossible while living in a city. Early January, I began the PS2 compendium and other research which completely changed the initial design and I ended with a much better unit all around. yay procrastination. This is my last commission I will take on for a long time so I can focus on other projects. Enjoy.

-Internal Freemcboot memory card and USB port
-2nd Player port

-Full sized PS2 joysticks and DS2 controller
-Low battery indicator active ~10 minutes
-I must admit the case and layout was largely influenced by Downing's N64 portable line

Absolutely beautiful. Almost makes me want to make a PS2 portable... maybe one day.
Also, open it up and post nudes.

I love it! Very nice build @Gman.

Is the output of the video 480p or 480i and will you be releasing the custom DAC board?

Post internals if possible please

The video output is going to be progressive or interlaced depending on the game, there's a list of 480p games here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PlayStation_2_games_with_alternate_display_modes

And a handful of games even in 1080i !

Awesome portable gman! If I hadn't been following your work I would have sworn it was some kind of emulation to get it that small.

I like how it flashes - makes me think of police lights. Very fitting since he was demoing GTA.

I made a few iterations to the design. It assembles a lot better and the design is more thought out now. I also trimmed this PS2 following the definitive trimming guide https://bitbuilt.net/forums/index.php?threads/the-definitive-ps2-trimming-guide.1841/#post-23765
