N64 Portable

there is even a N64p vs. DS comparison, that is at the least interesting  (tap screen to continue)

Looks difficult to make and it is also missing the D-pad and the L button, and no mention of multiplayer (would be hard on such a small screen anyway with only one controller )

He forgot to mention battery life Granted its rechargeable, but I wouldn't think this thing would last as long as a PSP. Unless he put in some of conserve mode...

Its not bad, but far from complete. As mentioned, what about the D-pad and L-trigger. Could'nt he have built it a la Gamecube?

Multiplayer? he'd have to a lot of soldering to get that done....

That looks like the PS2P in terms of style. I'd rather have a PS2P than an N64P...

Remember the Nomad?  Some of you?  It didn't do very well.

Not bad at all.  It's a shame he couldn't get the expansion pack into that thing, though.  No Majora's Mask, Perfect Dark, Donkey Kong 64, or Conker's Bad Fur Day for you!

"No Majora's Mask, Perfect Dark, Donkey Kong 64, or Conker's Bad Fur Day for you!"

Conker doesn't require the expansion pack.  Seems kind of a waste to not include the expansion pack.  Doesn't it replace the normal RAM which I assume he would have included in his portable in order for the damn thing to even work?  He had to put the jumper pack in in the first place so it's such a dumb oversight to not just switch it with the expansion pack particularly since every game will work with the expansion pack installed.

Edit: I read his comparison to the DS.  Heh, it's pretty funny.  His opinion of ports seems to be about on par with mine.

Are you such Conker's didn't require the expansion pack?  Huh.  I thought it did.  Oh well.

Did I miss any other games that requires it?  If not, geez, in hindsight I feel kind of ripped-off.

Even if the Ex Pack replaces the RAM he couldn't just rip those chips from the board or something. Very few console mods actually alter the circuit boards because that's hard and dangerous.

Perfect Dark could be played without the expansion pack - although it was limited.
