Ashens N64p

[Ashen]

I realize its not a GC mod, so might be better in some other location in the forums. But I thought it fit here under hardware/modding best.

I've been working on this on and off for about 6 months or so now in between other stuff and its finally about 98% finished. I say 98% because I'm using a cheap converter board for the pot based analog atm, and am waiting for a atmel programmer to arrive in the mail so I can swap the cheap crappy converter out for a good one.

The main body of the unit is even thinner than the Fusion3 (25mm!). It gets almost exactly 3hours playtime from a full charge and has a built in mempak.

For now here's some teaser pics (I'll post a proper video/pics once the analog thing is sorted out):







If anyone is interested, This unit will be up for sale once the analog thing is sorted out. I'm looking for about $700 for this one, I'll even toss in the 64 Drive I have here. I'd prefer to keep shipping to within the states, unless you're prepared to eat some crazy registered/hazmat'd shipping costs for international buyers. If anyone's interested just PM me, first come first served.

Excellent - it has the true Ashen look to it, i.e. every part of it looks like it's meticulously been looked over a few dozen times

N64 would look quite crisp on a screen that size - I don't think you'll have any issues getting this one sold quite fast

great job..for some reason i thought you were gonna put the 64drive in the main housing...
and 3 hours is great if your using the same batt setup as the others..


on a side note, i have some designs posted for a DIY atmel programmer on the xeno clone wiki if you dont wanna wait...and if you have serial or parallel available...

Thanks guys!

Yea, the original plan was to build in the 64 Drive. Unfortunately, the 64 Drive I have is a prototype (rev1) and while it works just like any other 64 Drive does, the board(s) inside are quite thick. Considering all that I just made it with an external cart slot.

I'm actually using 1 less cell than I do with my GC's. The built in pack here is a 11.1v 2600mAh pack. So 3 hours really is great.

I'll have to look at that programmer tut, all the pc's I have with a paralel port are in peices though. :/
