Retro Duo Portable NES/ Game SystemJust another one of the cool retro modded devices I thought I would share here. I'm a sucker for this kinda stuff. Not gonna buy one unless it has N64 support (or the 3DS finally gets Majoras Mask) but still cool stuff.

If you were very tech-savvy, you could probably take apart a controller, slap a screen to it, add a hard-drive, a place for some removable media and pop different emulators onto it, then use the removable media for the games, aaaand finally write yourself an OS to detect which game is in and what emulator to run etc

Why a hard drive on a portable? One clumbsy mistake and the data and drive are ruin. Have you seen the high capacity USBs today? They are the size of slivers and could hold hundreds on N64 games easily. Just saying.

Exactly, the games go onto the removable media, but the hard drive to house the OS, emulators and system settings... If you don't have the handheld, you'll not need the emulators... You won't need a HUGE hdd, probably something like a flash drive or something... Hell, I'm sure you could even use another removable media storage thing, except have it not removable as it's inside the handheld

Also, if the handheld is to play PS1/PS2 games aswell, those suckers are actually kinda big (PS1 are generally under a gig, but PS2 can be 2-4gb each... Couldn't fit ALL of them in there) And if we're gonna make an emulator handheld, we're gonna do it right, and be able to run any game from NES to PS2 (Seeing as I can't find a working xbox emulator =(... Well, I can, but it's kinda more trouble than it's worth)
