    Bacteria's IntoPlay - portable Playstation console system and step-by-step guide

    I have finished making a handheld portable Playstation 1 console system in a vacuum formed case.



    YouTube video: HERE

    For more pics, and to have a look at my guide, please visit my website at www.modded-by-bacteria.com If you want, you can also buy a case and some kit components too if you like!

    I like it how you are selling kits, really nice idea. I always wanted to do one of Ben Hecks ideas (especially the 360 laptop) but without a small work shop it was a bit behind me.

    Unfortunately, your website isn't working.

    my friend found something that lets him play PS games on his PSP and they run perfectly. But I guess this works if you're really hardcore about using the original hardware on the go. Like how small it is. Looks really nice too. How long do the batteries last for?

    Yeah, that works now, although it is very slow loading.

    A nice site, though - very informative. Good job! :thumbsup:

    One word of warning - be very careful selling those decals with a PlayStation logo embedded. Sony won't like that when they find out - don't forget they still have a copyright on the logo!

    nice job but...why are the joysticks above when they should be low?

  13. #13
    Thanks guys!

    Retro - Web site will load slowly, there are many, many pics there to upload on a visit.

    Take your point on the PlayStation logo, however it is a bit different to their logo, more colours. That should make it different enough; anyway, if they want me to change it I would of course.

    XxHennersXx - If the joysticks were lower it would be awkward to use them and hold the case, the d-pad is lower, so easier to reach over a lower part (d-pad) to a higher (joystick) than the other way around.

    I can see that but Like, your other one.... alot didn't make sense. like, why place the A/B buttons on the right of the C buttons? They should have been on the left...

    little things like that that would disorient and make someone have to retrain their muscle memory to play.

    It's a small company called Sony Entertainment.

    They sell PS games on their online store and with a bit of fiddling you can use your own games.

    No, it was taking a LOONG time to load. Trust me, I've made many websites, and I would be complaining to my host about the speed issues if mine were as bad as it was. That said, it's running smoothly now :thumbsup: Probably just lots of traffic when I tried before.

    Umm, what???





    How is that not EXACTLY the same?!?! You can't go using registered trademarks in your logo!

    6. This may sound familiar, but it's important, so we're going to rephrase it. Anything on this site--pictures, drawings, text, games, anything--is either our property or the property of someone who gave us the permission to use it. IT'S NOT PUBLIC DOMAIN, AND IT'S DEFINITELY NOT YOURS. Don't use any of it for anything other than personal entertainment, unless we say you can (and we probably won't). If you do, you're probably violating at least one law, and since we told you here, we won't feel bad about coming after you.

    7. On the same note, there are plenty of trademarks, logos, and service marks on this site that belong to us or someone who said it's cool for us to use them. So hands off! (That's from our legal guys.) They also say if you fool around with any of these trademarks, they or the owner of the mark or some other prosecutor who they inform will come after you.
