[kingspud]

Ok everyone, how many people out there are trying, have tried, or have succeded in building a handheld 2600, 5200, or 7800???

Please let me know, or contact me!

I want to create one myself and I think it would be great to get a forum going.

Lets make it possible.

Hey! You know what, I've got a bit of a connection with a guy who makes portable atari vcs's. He's got 5 models, and they all look cool. He's got a how to page, also.

 

 

See < A HREF = "Http://www.classicgaming.com/vcsp.htm">That site

 

if that come up in unreeadable code, tell me through email. It's Iandefor@hotmail.com

This is something I would like to know as well.

 

Im building one, which I believe will be the only non-NTSC system, or only system outside the US.

 

The ones curently building or have been built that I know of are:-

 

-The Puma http://tripoint.org/kevtris/Projects/puma/puma.html

 

-The VCSp http://www.classicgaming.com/VCSp/

 

-The VCSce http://www.aeonpro.com/2600ce/

 

-Also check out Atarimobile, which isnt realy a handheld at http://www.classicgaming.com/atarimobile/index.html

 

Although I haven't uploaded the stuff yet, a full documentation of my system will be at http://www.envy.nu/atarinvader/

 

Its currently about 60-80% complete. All that needs doing is:

-build a regulated power circuit

-get composite out

-drill the nessacary holes in the case

 

If anyone wants to see some pictures then give me a shout.

I too am in the planning stages of a portable 2600 & NES combined into one unit! I think it would be a good idea to start a webpage, messageboard, etc. devoted to console tinkering and development.

 

Keep in touch.
