Custom Homebuilt Super Nintendo Portable

This is a fully custom SNESp (Super NES portable) that I built back during my Freshman year at college. Inspired by Benjamin Heckendorn's work, I tried to include everything on this one. It uses a large-style motherboard (the big one) coupled to a Sony PSOne 5" screen with RGB connections. The RGB video is way better than the composite connection most people use when modding this stuff. The big-@$$ Sony NP-F960 battery on it in the video can run Super Mario World for about 6 hrs. Honestly, I've gotten tired of playing before running it dead. I usually use the lightweight small NP-F550 batteries. The case was a custom design of my own using a technique called vacuum forming. The SNES motherboard can be turned off independently (shown in the video) so another input can be displayed on the screen, such as a DVD player or whatever has Composite video. The backlight is a cold-cathode bulb with lightbox pulled from a 4" screen of unknown origin. It uses about half as much power as the original screen's backlight. And yes, I am that person of the same name from the BenHeck Portable Forums all those years ago.
