You made such a cool portable machine... and then you befouled it by choosing "Dino Dudes" as the first game you played on it!

[Isgoed]

Wow, that's very nice!

[+save2600]

Very, very cool indeed. Love the carbon scratch marks too. Must have been a labor of love!

 

Out of curiosity, how much would one expect to pay for something like this? Do you do it on a per-request basis or was this just a one time thing? Awesome packing job, artwork and all that too. One of a kind!

dino dudes was played cos it was the game that it comes with in the box

Cannon Fodder and Pinball Fantasies where the 1st games played on it any way

and save2600 this is the 1st commission i have made but is the 2nd portable jaguar i built.

i am open to makeing more and it would be on a per-request basis(so if you are intrested just pm me)

That's excellent work !

 

A few questions :

 

- How much does it weigh ? Can you play it comfortably by holding it in your hands, or do you need a table ?

 

- How long did you spent building it ?

[Punisher5.0]

Very impressive

 

I'm mostly impressed by the thought that was given to the packaging. Never seen homebrew hardware come in such a professional package.

 

I'd like to comment on the quality of the unit by I couldn't tell by the quality of the video.

thanks

yeah you can play it comfortably when i was testing it i was sat on the sofer with it resting on my legs witch is

the same way i play my lynx so it felt fine to play.if you where standing up and holding it in your hands it would start

to fell a bit heavy after some time though.

it took me about 5 weeks to make.as for what it weighs i did not weigh it and it has now been sent to the buyer.

but when i posted it the hole package weigh 2kg(it was put in a 2nd box and well package up so boxs and packing will weigh a bit)

and as for the quality of the unit my video cam is a bit old so video quality is not the best.but as for the jaguar

it is hand made so it is not the same as a factory made portable but i do make them to the hightest quality i can.

questions:

how big is the screen?

did you connect it as RGB?

did you use only the buttons of the jagpad or also the PCB (I hear a click that lets me think you used something else)?

battery specs?

any other spec?

 

thank you.

 

Oh, just curious: what is the price range? More or less.

[wozencl]

Amazing work!

[sh3-rg]

You should do one with a rotary, too

[+Sargon]

Awesome work. I wonder what people would think if you whipped that bad boy out on an airplane.

[Paolo]

Airplane? He would never go through the security, let alone the airplane. hehe

[LinkoVitch]

Did you make one several years ago? I am sure I have seen something similar years ago.

[LinkoVitch]

Similar but not the same

no i did not make that one the 1st one i made is here as for the spec'sof my 2nd one its got a 5" screen that is connected with RGB the battery is a 7.4v 4250mah so it will give you about 2 hours play time the buttons are from the jagpad as well as the PCB so you get the same feel as the pad.
