Is this site interested in portable handheld DreamCasts?

First attempt a short while ago to close case - back to system menu as the disc was catching on the enclosure and stopping the disc spinning. Adjusted the posts securing it on the back by 1mm and all ok - yes that tight. Also, 3 lines on the VMU missing - fixed that with another small tube of plastic and hot glue.

Second attempt - finally all working, and sealed shut! Working great!

Over the next days when I have time, my agenda is:

* Clear desk
* Edit my previous WIP videos for this project to try and make everything under 10 mins, including new footage.
* Make a construction to support camera above my head, angled, to take videos showing games being played, etc on IntoDream - certainly Quake 3, and some other games to, including PenPen, Unreal Tournament and Sonic - probably have a couple of such dedicated videos
* Make another mini video - removing game ports from boards, and uploading it
* Do my commission I took on - modding a bluetooth controller into a PS1 controller
* Upload my IntoDream project for all to see
* Then, start my video log project for making an N64 portable - from start to end.... (lots of mini videos)

Dam Skippy were interested, mashing up my Dreamcast isn't something I want to do but in the future I think will see them more often

also I've been on the scene since dial-up up until recently I've started talking on the forums

This is a dedicated DreamCast forum after all!

Making consoles into portable handheld systems like the DreamCast gives them a new lease of life, makes them "modern" and interesting. It isn't for everyone however the other benefit of such modding is that you can decide what you want - bigger buttons, different layout, better joystick, etc. Playing Quake 3 on a DreamCast controller, vs my system is all the comparison you need to understand why such a project is worthwhile...
