  • Checkerd, on 04/10/2008, -0/+1How much would all of this cost?
  • JayCruz, on 04/09/2008, -0/+1This is definitely something I'll try to do... someday.
  • caddyalan, on 04/09/2008, -1/+2There are quite a few "Famicom clones" which are very similar to the NES/Famicom hardware, and which use original carts. But I've only heard of a few which are portable. So for those who can't solder their own machines, several exist. However, I recall that some Famiclones have difficulty with 8-bit games that have unusual mappers.
  • rogueyak, on 04/09/2008, -1/+2Amazing.
  • frostbytemike, on 04/10/2008, -0/+0The wood grain gives it a nice retro look. I wish i could do this too, but by the look of all the technical drawings I'm out of my league.
