Beautiful! I'd definitely play me some Spyro the Dragon on that thing.

Great job!

Nice work,I can only hope that any of mine come out looking that nice!! I tip my hat to you good sir...

 

[Aurelio]

So cool! Nice work, it bring me back a lot of good memories

Thanks for the kind words everyone! I play far more handheld games than console because my wife and I work in the same office and she volunteers to drive the 45-minute commute. Glad to have finished this because I have about 55 PS1 games that are about to get the attention they deserve.

I have to agree it's a nice looking portable. 11/10 would play again

Does your wife play games? Could offer to drive and let her play once to see

 

[fibbef]

I do offer to drive from time to time and she actually takes me up on it if she's particularly tired. Unfortunately she's not a gamer. I tried getting her to play Portal 2 with me once but she couldn't wrap her head around fps controls. I've also tried nudging her into Pokémon but she said the games are too confusing.

Try something like super Mario on nes or Galaga, something extremely simple usually gets people (got my grandma with SMB, now she even plays some ds games )

 

[fibbef]

She actually bought a 3DS before we were married because she thought she'd get into Nintendogs. (She didn't.) And she does like SMB as we've played that a couple of times together on NES. Then she bought it for VC on her 3DS. I even went so far as to try getting her to play Mario World but she said it was too different and didn't like it as much.

I think the game I've seen her play the most is Wheel of Fortune on Wii.

Hey nothing wrong with that

 

[fibbef]

Definitely not! I was there spinning the wheel right alongside her!
