Arashikage Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I don't know why I didn't post anything here about it, but I'm working on a console mod currently for my Senior Exhibition project. It's a very important project, and, I'm quite embarrassed to admit, I haven't started building it yet. I have most of the parts I need, but I also really need some help. This Nintendo 64 is currently sitting in pieces in my workspace, along with a DVD player for the screen, and a shell to a laptop for the speakers. I'm hoping to update this thread with my progress, and I'll let you guys know if I pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Monroe Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I've seen a few of these on Youtube of various designs. Some of them are really good, others... less so. Hope yours is good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticQuery Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 That's pretty darn cool; here's hoping that your project comes to fruition in a timely manner, and you don't fall victim to intense procrastination. After all, when everyone else walks around with their smartphones, 3DS', and PSVitas, you've got an N64! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arashikage Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 So I ended up getting the screen working off a 9 volt battery. I know it turns on because it lights up with the battery attached, and I know it works with standard analog video input because I attached the wire to my PS1 and it displayed the video. However, it's a tad shaky, but that's almost definitely because I was holding the wire to the plug. Anyway, all I need now is a Lithium Ion battery to power the system and I can solder on the video and power wires. The Nintendo 64 I found out powers five volts already to the screen, if this screen I have can run off of 5 volts I'm golden, otherwise I'm going to have to hook up the battery to the screen, a longer and more complicated process.
