IntoGrafx - completed portable TurboGrafx handheld
« on: July 31, 2009, 12:29:05 AM »
Here are some pics of the completed system, complete with a video:

Final weight: a mere 750g.

The worklog WIP for the system is HERE

The full worklog is on my Wordpress site, along with other tutorials, please have a look! This project (IntoGrafx) and previous one (IntoPlay) are on two sections - finished project and how-to guides on my site. That is to keep sections separate for modding the console system and also making the portable.


Please note - the Wordpress site has a limit of 35 users on at any one time, so if the site is busy, please try again in a few minutes!

Thats pretty sweet man, love the design. Ive seen a few other portables that youve made (including the n64) and i must say that this looks brilliant. Im about to start on a portable Dreamcast here soon!  :drunk:
