Dublinthefox Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 If a person can create stuff like that, than why the hell can't we have this? Its freakin awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjrathbun812 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Wow, that's freakin' awesome to the max of awesomeness. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorAllosaurus Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I'll be impressed when somebody makes a portable Vectrex, complete with miniature versions of the screen overlays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticQuery Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I'll be impressed when somebody makes a portable Vectrex, complete with miniature versions of the screen overlays. You and me both! XD; nothing matches the vector-graphics but the real thing! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabre Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 You and me both! XD; nothing matches the vector-graphics but the real thing! Indeed. Even emulation doesn't quite capture it. I know there is a portable megadrive. As someone who lived through the time of portable CD players, I can say a portable disc based system will be extremely hard to pull off. This does raise hope for unofficial machines to replace aging ones. If they could make a N64 that had a high quality controller and could play roms, that would be conveniant and awesome.

DoctorAllosaurus Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 You and me both! XD; nothing matches the vector-graphics but the real thing! I know right. Spike, Clean Sweep, Web Wars, etc. look so wrong on a regular monitor. Wish I still had my Vectrex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticQuery Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I know right. Spike, Clean Sweep, Web Wars, etc. look so wrong on a regular monitor. Wish I still had my Vectrex. Wish I could afford to get one at the moment Don't forget Minestorm and the ports of Berzerk and Pole Position! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icy Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 You can make your own portable N64, actually. Using this guy's tutorials: http://moddedbybacteria.wordpress.com/retro-console-system-modding-guides/nintendo-n64-video-guide-log/ Been wanting to do that myself as I have a spare N64. But yeah, awesome stuff there. Nice GBA style design. ^^ @Dublinfox: We can have that. It's actually pretty easy to convert a console into a portable thing. If you have the proper tools, etc. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluggsnipa Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Some guy called Ben Heck was featured in GameInformer for doing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Fox Runner Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I've seen plenty of these, some are bad and some are freakin awesome! It makes me wish Nintendo would go ahead and do something like this officially. A portable N64 and a portable GameCube would have been AWESOME!

sjrathbun812 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 But isn't this why they've been making remakes instead of making a whole freakin' new system? You have to remember that making a new system is a lot of work. And a lot of money. I don't really think they should. We have enough remakes as is.
