How long does it take to remove the protective plastic - you say "better than sex and lasts longer". That means 1) you aren't good at sex, :rolleyes: 2) for you, doesn't last more than a few seconds, :blink: 3) you don't like sex :huh: 4) we know these things about you as you told us ;)

If your case is a bit bigger and also a bit thicker, no, not that hard really. However, I used a small case, positioned the joystick out too much, and made the case as "slim" as could manage, so made life difficult for myself. I would take a commission or two, however would only make one on if...

Nope, keeping the N64 portable for my own use. May make one or two though either as commissions if asked, although will do it with the tupperware case type. On my Wordpress site are all the 20 video log guides to build one yourself, schematics, etc.

Starting the project after finishing a gadget for the N64 handheld portable i've just finished; and made a demonstration video. Might be able to start these GP2x projects before the end of this week!

Two small ones... (found two an ideal size)

Thought it a good idea to provide an update, as it has been a month before last post here; didn't want people to think "I did a runner" with the GP2x F200 I was sent by Dave18 ! (i'm not like that!). Finishing off my N64 portable over next few days (assuming no further problems) and after...

So you can nail jelly to a wall then I presume!

Quite possible, with a fair wind, that I will be starting the GP2x projects at the start of April! I'm looking forward to it. Going to make them video projects, I quite like making them!

Those cells are very expensive indeed. The PSP ones I am using are Chinese rip-off cells, cost about £3 each, plus charger; so about £11 all in. Yes, I will be interested to see how long a pair of these cells last, if they are what they are rated at, based on your findings, should be about 10...

My understanding is that the rubber topped tact switches don't last as long as regular tactile switches; however are still rated at considerable use (tens of thousands of presses), even as a fraction of the life of clicky tact switches. Also, when doing a mod, you don't want things to be...

There are two types of tact switch, the "clicky" ones (like on a GameBoy SP), and the ones that feel like pressing on a rubber pad on a normal console controller - that is the "mushy" feel.

I know that, D-pad mods for the GP2x have been documented before, however they use a cut up controller pad; i'm going to use a different method that should be easy to follow, using rubber topped tact switches which have a mushy feel. Has that method been done here before specifically for a D-pad...

As you may have noticed on my Wordpress site, I like to document everything and give my guides, tips and technques to everyone for free; taking the "black art" out of console modding. I will document every step of the modding process here on this forum with lots of pics for people to follow, so...

I prefer to integrate a better controller into the system itself rather than having a separate controller.

I have two PSP 3.6 amp 3.6v Li-ions, which I will put together to make 7.2 amps. Both cells will recharge at the same time via the same jack (like I do on my portables) - I have a PSP battery recharge small box that runs off the PSP recharge cable (ie its only 5v output, nothing special); that...

Dave18 has very generously donated his GP2x. I will therefore make two GP2x mods - both will have Li-ion cells and charger jack, D-pad, paintjob: First: will be using the original GP2x. I will then offer that unit for sale on this board and offer Dave18 a percentage of the profit gained...

PM sent Dave18! :D

Thanks. I think this forum was the first one I ever joined if I remember correctly, and certainly where I first took tentitive baby steps on modding - I couldn't even solder at the time and what I did, although it did work, was really bad. My modding has "grown up" now so I thought it would be...

Tell you what guys - as there is good interest here, and I know my project will get plenty of reads due to this, and "for old times sake"; i'll give the exclusivity of the project to this site! :) I'll upload full work logs as the project progresses here, just use the odd pic here and there...

Great feedback guys, thanks. sehs33 - No, will document it here, on Assember Forum and also RacketBOY forum; obviously on my own Wordpress site too (which takes preference). Senor Quack - My mod will use the GP2x screen. TV out is bad on the GP2x after all. Morpheus384 - I will aim to use the...
