well technically there is no real portable gamecube they are all modded wii consoles because their boards can be trimmed down more, use less power and because of that also put out less heat, and well the wii chip is just a beefed up gamecube chip anyway, like the wiiu is a beefed up wii chip, which can run also gamecube games without emulation layers between

This is SERIOUSLY impressive, and has turned some heads in the portablizing scene. It's crazy how much you were able to accomplish using a blend of old-school portablizing techniques and modern tools. You should definitely make a post on the bitbuilt forums. I would absolutely love to see how far you could take a version 2 of this with help from the community.

[@ShankMods]

Like a custom BMS and regulator board could cut down a lot on power consumption and heat, and help with battery life. I bet you could benefit from Benge's or RedHerring32's bms design. Subbing out the HDMI/mini HDMI for 19 pin FFC connectors could save you a lot of space and headache. Magnet wire for data lines can save you space and improve data integrity... Lots of small stuff that can add up and really benefit. I'm sure the scene would be happy to help out! :)

Bitbuilt from my experience and others have been unfortunately pretty toxic to newcomers. So many members on there have this "I sit on a pedestal/I know everything" attitude. Let's face it if this was posted on Bitbuilt, it would be torn apart by the "rats nest" wires, hot glue, ignorance of not using custom pcb design/ffc cables/proper regulators/wiring/etc. OP if you see this, honestly just stick to KZbin and don't get involved with communities like this. You want to appeal to the general public and not hard core people.

I’m so glad this popped into my feed. What a real treat. I did an Xbox360 laptop back in 2009, but it was still a beast. Between battery tech improving, the PS4 slim looking nearly as small as the PS2 slim, and tiny HD screens with HDMI support, you really were able to make something amazing here. Great work!

[@PJRNWY]

How did you do the 360 laptop? I wanna try something similar

[@collinE83]

@ I had it all documented with pictures on the benheck forums back in the day, but I don’t think those are up anymore. I removed the case, relocated the disc drive to sit next to the motherboard, made new copper heat sinks that were thinner but more surface area, added more fans, but smaller to fit a thinner case, I took apart a 19” LCD monitor and wired that to the console and then made a new case out of plastic sheets for the top and bottom housing. Wasn’t a macbook air, but was still thinner than the 360 console and could still be around in a backpack. No batteries though.

[@FraserSouris]

Sony doesn't build true portables anymore not because they can't but more because they don't want to. The issue is the business rather than the technology. Consider the Switch. The Switch worked for a few reasons: -1- Nintendo's always had a healthy handheld line even before the Switch with the 3DS and -2- Nintendo never focussed on raw graphical power as a selling point. Meaning even though the Switch is 2 generations behind the PS5, Nintendo's main games are stylized enough that they function fine at a PS3/360/WiiU level of power. And -3- Nintendo was already making games at a WiiU level of power with the WiiU. And the 3DS was weaker than the WiiU. So they don't need to rework how they make WiiU games and 3DS style games get a power boost. Essentially, letting them continue as normal and only support 1 system. The Steam Deck has the advantage that it can access Steam. And if the user is already a Steam user, then their library carries over automatically. Valve doesn't need to make games for the Steam Deck. They just have to make things easier for other devs and improve Proton. The Steam Deck continues to get new games just by existing. None of these advantages apply to Sony. Sony's MO with the PS4 and now PS5 is graphically intense games. That's why the PS5 is designed to have Ray Tracing and stuff. And this is also why the Vita failed. The Vita came out in an awkward position. It was sold as "console quality games on the go". But it wasn't powerful enough to run most PS3 games well (see Borderlands 2 and The Amazing Spider-Man 1). But making games for the VITA was still more expensive than making games for iOS or the 3DS. And those games, even if ported to the PS3/PS4, weren't on the level of Native PS3/PS4 games (see Assassin's Creed Liberation. Or how Gravity Rush and Tearaway were essentially remade for the PS4 version). If Sony released a PS4 Portable, they'd likely be repeating the same situation as the VITA. Devs would need to prioritize whether to support the portable version and thus not make a "Full PS5 Version" as that would be limited by the portable version. Or prioritize the PS5 version and either skip the PS4 Portable or make a heavily downgraded version of that for it. This is also an issue Xbox is facing with the Series S. The Series S is so much weaker than the Series X that devs have to choose between compromising X games to fit the S or compromising S games to fit the X. Sony's resources are also already split between the PS5 and the PSVR2. Adding a PS4 Portable means Sony would need to allocate studios to make games for it over the PS5 and PSVR2 to keep it competitive with the Switch and Steam Deck. From a business perspective, it's smarter to avoid a Vita/Series S situation and avoid making a handheld.

[@CatwaiiYT]

​@@FraserSouristhanks for the analysis

[@themonsterunderyourbed9408]

​@@FraserSouris what a BS take. It's easier than ever to modify a game to make it perform better on weaker hardware... Not to mention the new frame generation AIs like DLSS, FSR and PSSR. Vita failed because of expensive and proprietary memory sticks and lack of game releases in North America. If they had released all the JRPGs they did in Japan in North America, it would have helped allot. As for the steam deck, people have large libraries of digital games on the PSN too. Sony doesn't do it because they hate their customers and only do what's good for their bottom line.

[@thrrax]

@@themonsterunderyourbed9408 I've worked with Xbox and PS consoles for over seven years. In order to make games for them, you need to dumb them down a lot (visuals, performance, control response time) to compensate for having a weaker hardware (this is one of the reasons why cross-platforming for most games is a waste of time). And in order to make the same games be playable on an even weaker hardware in the form of a handheld, you'd have to dumb them down even more. DLSS, FSR and PSSR is dumbing down and they have their limitations. Look at Wukong. If it were to truly take advantage of the U5 capabilities, nobody would be able to play the game with reasonable performance. I mean, sure, the game looks good, but they could've obtained the same looks on U4 without the need of dumbing it down. Fraser's analysis is quite good as to why SONY isn't interested in investing in a new "handheld". Even the Switch is not a true handheld.

[@crestofhonor2349]

Consumes a lot more power than all the handhelds. The Ally and Legion Go cap out around 40w of total power draw at maximum. Plus then you have to cool all that and higher power draw means more heat which also means a beefier cooling system is needed. Plus the battery does have to be huge to get a decent play time out of it. Still it's extremely cool and I love seeing these modified consoles that fit inside a handheld

That problem is the reason Nintendo only makes 1 system (which has essentially been true since the 3DS as they didn’t release hardly anything on the Wii U). Portable devices today require so much investment and time on the software side, it doesn’t make sense to do them and a traditional console anymore. Unless they’re going to run identical software (which could cause developers to gimp the more powerful console version to make the handheld work) or else software that’s generations old, it doesn’t work out.

@@malikkellyi don’t really think so, you would need to get a chip which has the same architecture and has the samed power while consuming way less energy and outputs less heat i love it when people do their own portable consoles, but those designs are most of the time to chunky and their battery life isn’t great, who really wants a portable console which is heavy as hell to hold for a long time and isn’t capable of at least 2-3h of gameplay while not blasting your ears off because of the fans you would have to design the chip with that in mind before

This is hella sick bro, The amount of things i can't even comprehend, all of those diodes, wires, typa things the voltage and other stuffs man, but still i watched the whole video with amusement.

I am in awe watching you make this. Having the know how of how to disassemble, reassemble, wire, solder, replace parts, re-wire putting it together as a fully function machine, is something I have no knowledge of, and I am just flabbergasted on how someone has the knowledge and patience to do so as you did. Great job!

Finally the full video, guessing if setting the resolution to 720p could increase the battery life. On a 7” screen 720p can look good enough Great video as always :)

[@krazykatz97_1]

ps4 doesnt adjust internal resolution according to display resolution unfortunately

[@crestofhonor2349]

Won't work. The last consoles to do that were the PS3 and 360 and that extra power just went to improving performance. The PS4 Pro also did this in some games but still the same concept applies, lower resolution just means higher frame rate

[@krazykatz97_1]

@@crestofhonor2349did you forget the cpu cluster? its not very fast and usually just barely hits 30 fps in most games, only games based on extremely optimized engines or just an old engine and with specific tech will run at 60 fps. and even that is rocky

[@crestofhonor2349]

@@krazykatz97_1 What does that have anything with what I said. All I mentioned is that in game resolution doens't scale with the display output resolution on the PS4 and Xbox One. Also a lot of games on both Xbox 360 and PS3 had improved performance when selecting 720p or 480p. This is because it freed up GPU resources and thus the game ran better. Not all games did this but it was frequent enough to the point where if you used a standard definition CRT or had a TV only capapble of 720p, you'd have better performance than if you had selected 1080p. None of that has to do with the engine. Also I never said it would run at 60fps, all I said is improved frame rate

[@stef3012]

@@crestofhonor2349 oh I didn’t know this. I thought that internal resolution would scale accordingly, taking less resources to run, thanks for sharing

[@Dstalli13]

WOW!! I’m only half way in and already so impressed! This needs 10 million views!!! This is amazing DIY!!

[@T118Als]

Im actually surprised that someone made a portable PS4 console but i think they need upgrades * if could * 1. Powerful batteries 2. Better handling 3. Warning if the batteries are low 4. Better fan 5. Multi USB ( so you can connect a controller if you dont want to use on the handheld ) But look correct me if you already did it, and i gotta say this is good work 👏

[@Fielith]

I think the 3rd one is hard, they didnt put a battery low software on ps because its mounted on wall anyway
