Making The World’s Smallest NES With REAL Nintendo Hardware

This Is The Smallest NES in The World Made From A REAL NES! | No Emulation!
This is the smallest REAL Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in the world, and it was created by Redherring32. This totally custom, open-source project uses a pair of real NES PPU and CPU, but they have been shrunken by unconventional means with some truly incredible results. This is TinyTendo, a REAL portable NES. And it’s amazing!

One thing I forgot to mention in the video is that the cartridges for TinyTendo use all new components. No game carts are sacrificed 👍

[@erikg4512]

Could you elaborate on how those cartridges work?

[@PlantedWave5190]

That's pretty impressive! Hopefully the TinyTendo can also get a flash cart using a similar architecture. For the EverDrive N8, we might need to get Krikzz's permission to build one specifically for the TinyTendo.

[@penismightier9278]

You didn't mention the battery life. I'm thinking it's either insanely long due to the age of the processors or insanely short due to the screen. Any idea what it's capable of?

[@TheDainerss]

@@erikg4512 you flash the EPROMs on them with a game rom.

[@Blin240]

Do they draw more power similar to flashcarts?

[@hugevibez]

Wtf, we're not only shaving down motherboards, but actual chips now? Insane!

[@p529.]

tbf, most of the chip is filler plastic just to hold the pins in place. I think shaving down motherboards compared to this chip is way more interesting

[@MachoNachoProductions]

Heck yeah!

[@FilipDautovic]

​@@BrendanRaymondKoroKoro i saw videos of people doing something similar, exposing hair thin contacts and repairing burned ones basically saving the chip. Or remember flashing xbox 360 slim dvd drives where ome models chip had to be sanded in the exact spot to expose one of those traces? Madness!!!

[@Druid_Plow]

It's actually super common for repair shops that know what they're doing to Dremel off the top of a chip to run a bodge for a missing leg. Trimming the entire chip is still a pretty big jump for sure though. I wonder if this can be applied to other things like C64's or SNES.

@@redherring3253 it doesn't use much power in terms of absolute numbers, but relative to the amount of computing power the NES outputs it's actually pretty poor compared with modern architectures (which is what you'd expect).

This is great. I've been very busy for years for this kind of project. I'm so glad I didn't discard those old chips and famiclone cases, which are valuble for my nostalgia.

[@davidmelgar802]

I’ve recently gotten into modding and repairing old consoles and have used your videos as a guide. I can say that I could 100% connect with this video. I’ve often felt so much frustration and disappointment when working on older systems but the reward of finally getting it repaired is priceless. Loved this video. Thank you!!

[@kbhasi]

(0:24) I think the reason why the chips were big back then was because a lot of the chip fabrication technologies for smaller chip packages didn't exist back then or were expensive to manufacture. Still, the closest things I've seen to that ran on Famiclone hardware, and I never thought someone would do a similar thing but running on real Famicom/NES chips.

[@davidcameron648]

You're partially correct. The technology to make the components super small did exist (the surface mount technology we use now), it was just very expensive. Inexpensive consumer electronics at the time were manufactured using through hole components (the component legs pass through the circuit board and are soldered on the reverse side) that were mostly assembled by hand and soldered using a wave soldering machine. The distance between the component legs had to be far enough apart or the process would have issues (pins bridged by solder needing more manual rework to get a functional board), also the components needed to be big enough that they could be assembled by hand.

[@kbhasi]

[@brooklyn11218]

I want to see the inside of the cartridges. Are those shaved down also or custom flashed roms?

[@bucket_mouse]

They are custom ROMs, using 39SF040 chips. For the MMC3 mapper games, it requires an original MMC3 mapper chip harvested from a (hopefully dead) NES game

[@CloverTF2]

This is mind blowing! I'd never suspected that the die in these CPUs would be so tiny!!

[@chepin74]

To add crazy ideas to this project, the die can be completely extracted from the original package and wire-bonded again into an entirely new package. You need some very specialized machines and techniques to do this, but it can be done. You could completely extract the die and wire-bond it to the pcb, and then encapsulate the die in an epoxy. Might save you a little bit of space, though it might be plenty small already.

Ok, Love the passion, no question he must spend years doing this. I owned a NES from day one (well 10 days later), and still to this day love it. If the boards where pre-built like this, the soldering job didn't look too bad. How do you get games? You need to build them one by one ? This would need an Everdrive to be useful in the real world. Cutting the CPU in parts? Dam, I did a NESRGB kit and that had it's challenges but, dam.

It needs a player 2 micro port perhaps via USB-C and a dongle adaptor for the gun. I knoiw the gun needs a CRT to work but maybe it too can be modded to send and receive signals like LED or something

Wonder if Long Island Retro Gaming is gonna do a video on this, and more in the sense of assembling from scratch and doing the trimming of the chips.

I already dreamed of having the console experience of the NES on the go too. But I went the way of emulation and homebrew and instead got my first GBA flashcart to have fun with PocketNES and a Game Boy Micro. I've been obsessed with emulation/homebrew handhelds ever since.

Whoa, this is really cool. Props to Redherring32 for his engineering genius. This is a really cool project, especially after having watched Gaming Historian's Express video a few days back. I definitely would not attempt this... I can't even get GG's to fully work at my current skill level. The only 'downside' for me is that the cartridges also have to also be modded and fit on the smaller, custom cartridge PCBs. I suppose you could make an Everdrive-type of a cartridge so that way you wouldn't have to constantly be Frankenstein-ing your game library.

[@bucket_mouse]

The cartridges use all-new hardware actually. Other than a donor chip you may need for games with specific proprietary mappers (i.e. MMC3) - in that case, you only need to remove that one chip from an original game to transplant.

This is really impressive! I wonder if there is any lag because of the LCD. Even the Analogue pocket seems to have a little lag, which makes beating Mike Tyson's Punch-out difficult. But since it is one of my favorite NES games, I keep a real NES hooked up to a small CRT just for that and light gun games.

[@redherring3253]

If there is any, it's certainly not enough for me to notice. It feels super responsive/ is enjoyable to play games on. :)

[@JMLRetroRoom]

He should offer a 3D Printed Hand Grip Pro Controller style that has an 80pin to 72pin adapter for actual cartridges. The grip could help alleviate the cart size and help with a backing to hold it in place.

[@nintendians]

looks quite amazing.

[@skins4thewin]

Wow, this is freaking amazing! However this means that every one of these made will essentially destroy the orignial PPU and CPU chips of an NES system, two chips which are no longer being manufactured! This is a problem.... I wish these chips were still being made!

I kind of want a follow-up video covering the game carts. They’re obviously not using original cart chips there, but apparently what they used is able to function like the chips in an original cart.

[@artstrange3230]

That's because Nintendo couldn't really make proprietary chips for its cartridges. They made chips with proprietary pinouts. So if you find compatible ROM chips that are the same size as the ones found in, say, Super Mario Bros 3, you can use a PIC programmer to load a Super Mario Bros 3 ROM onto them and design a custom board accordingly to make them work as the real deal.

[@intel386DX]

Hey Tito, what was that nice looking hardware you used, the aluminum slab to keep the TinyTendo from being flush, allowing button placement?

[@springogeek]

Very cool project! That said, I have concerns about having to damage those PPU and CPU chips in order to produce these, since there is a limited supply of those chips, it might make it harder to find those parts for use in original consoles, for the sake of restoration and preservation

[@redherring3253]

Over 60 million NES sold. Even if we assume 60% of those ended up in the landfill, the less than 10 people that will ever muster up the courage to try to build a TinyTendo will never be able to make a noticeable dent even in all of their combined lifetimes. :) And if they did, this is totally "reversible" you can mount the cut chips back in whatever NES they came out of with a simple little adapter. Nothing is truly destroyed.

[@briangilmartin662]

I was just thinking about how cool it would be if there was an Everdrive for this thing. Plus, the idea of using a touch screen for light gun games would be interesting

[@bucket_mouse]

Anyone who can make a TinyTendo will be able to *easily* make cartridges. It kind of adds to the charm of the whole system. Integrating an Everdrive into the console means you're never physically changing out games, and at that point you're closer to just having an emulation system. Plenty of people make custom cartridges for NES, SNES, Game Boy, etc. Not everyone likes having all their games on one cartridge :) (Plus it would be a nightmare to shrink down an NES Everdrive cartridge down to a Game Boy size - have you seen the circuit boards??)

[@kazinwho]

@@bucket_mouse Oh, of course they could make their own carts, I figure that'd be a cakewalk for someone who could, as you say, make a Tinytendo haha. I sure couldn't do either.
