Seeing all of these cool things that people do with their NES makes me wish I didn't trash mine when I was in elementary school.]]>May 13th 2006 8:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/May 13th 2006 8:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/

"For a custom, hand-built nPod, with 3.5" screen, I'm charging $350. This is in line with most of my portable gaming items.

I am going on a mission to locate more NES on a chips this weekend, so hopefully I will be able to make more of these. The screens are easy to find.

Custom colors (such as brushed aluminum or grey) can be done as well. The unit runs off (4) AA batteries.

I'd like to see somebody find a way to actually shrink the cartridge down to a point where you can effective use a truely "portable" NES with it.]]>May 13th 2006 4:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/
The board inside the cartridge was tiny, about 1/4th the length of the cart. So, modding carts to be smaller would be a cinch if they are all that size.

Yeah you know, something like 1000 games wouldn't weight all that much, under 150Mb. Interfacing it with a SD cart reader, now that would be rad. :P]]>May 14th 2006 2:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/May 14th 2006 11:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/May 14th 2006 12:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/13/ben-heckendorns-latest-the-npod/-----------------

I mean "leet?" Come on. If you're going to use that word at all, you should spell it l337. I remember back when Engadget was looking for new bloggers who could "write in the Engadget style." Looks like they couldn't find any and settled for straight up reporters.

It used to be that every post had some nice wisecracks in it, now the wisecracks are few and far in between, with some posts going without humour altogether.]]>May 17th 2006 2:54AM
