Portable Consoles

Post by Ombre »

Earlier today I was browsing google and I came across a few sites that had pictures and sometimes directions on all kinds of consoles people made handheld portable, I got quite interested and eventually came across this page. http://benheck.com I must say the things that guy did are amazing, sure they might be pretty bulky, but what do you expect there are whole consoles in those custom cases! I espiecally liked what he made with the Xbox 360 http://www.benheck.com/Games/Xbox360/x360_page_5.htm

How much greater anything with the word "Xbox" is, compared to the PSP?

I thin it would be cool if someone could find a way too merge, say a GBA with a Camera or Mp3 player.

Why don't they combine all the systems, a phone, a camera, computer, fridge, and toaster together, and sell it.

I'd buy one. :)

As cool as it is...that's about all it is. It's not really practical, and I definitely wouldn't consider carrying it around...the 360 scratches discs from the slightest bumps...not a chance I'd be willing to take.

I guess it's just like carrying around a really bulky laptop... :? However, it would be cool to have for bragging rights though.
