Re: Downing's OUYA Portable: COMEPLETED! Last Post Update

Congrats. It is really awesome to see this project completed. My only question is are the back triggers and shoulder buttons actually comfortable to use? I would have thought that if they were positioned closer to how the wii u has them setup it would have been more ideal. Were there were some tech...

Re: Downing's OUYA Portable

So just shy of a month in the making, I'd like to present to you my first portable in over two years! Thanks a bunch to RDC and Hailrazer for their contributions to this project as well! No fancy name or anything like that, Just Downing's OUYA Portable! Specs: Custom 3D Printed/CNC Cut Casing Custom...

Re: Downing's OUYA Portable

Been a little while since my last update. Been a couple busy weeks at work and with home life. Anyway! Progress! I failed at my first attempt of soldering the Blue Tooth Module to the BOB. I think when I bridged a test point underneath the module and tried to remove it from the board I damaged the m...

Re: Downing's OUYA Portable

More "Batch" Updates It appears my boards from OSH are in USPS limbo. They shipped from OR, had an arrival date of Monday and it still hasn't moved. Grrrrr...more phone calls. Well fear not. At least I got something cool in the mail today! RDC sent me back the controller boards he was work...

Re: Downing's OUYA Portable

Sorry guys, been slacking on my updates over here. Here's one long post with all the updates I've made since the last one. Sorry if it's a bit jumbled. Ok, well due to certain circumstances, I decided to forgo waiting for the back half of the casing to get finished. Hail's been having trouble with h...

Re: Downing's OUYA Portable

Alright! I've got some updates on the status of the controller end of things. RDC has worked his magic once again, not only overcoming the seemingly "WTF were they thinking" architecture of the OUYA controller, but also shrinking it down to a single board size of .75" x 1.1", wit...

Re: Downing's OUYA Portable

Just a pic that shows my home-made HDMI cable working as it should! Done right on the first try at that! http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab182/cndowning/OUYA%20Portable/IMAG0447_zps3581d2bb.jpg Sweet! I'm liking how this LED back-lighting is working out! Not my best soldering on the inside but it...

Re: Downing's OUYA Portable

Been a very productive morning, aside from the fact my basement flooded this morning... Nothing too bad as it was expected so I got everything of importance moved, but I've been working with wet feet all morning...yay for electronics and water! Anyway, on to what you really care about. This is the c...

Re: Downing's OUYA Portable

Ok, Small update. Got the front half painted this morning. The shots show it shortly after it was painted so once it dries and I get the clear coats on it, I'll take another picture. The D-pad ring stands out more than a white guy in an Asian strip club...It sucks but not much I can do about it now....

That didn't stop you from making the SNES with built-in controller screens. :P
Let's keep this craziness rolling!


Haha, valid point. Ok, I'll keep it going!
