OUYA handheld build log V2 - GamebOUYA

eucrow
eucrow over 11 years ago

Yeah, I know i'm not done with V1 yet but i've already started working on the second one. The main difference is that for this one I i'm going to allow myself to make changes to the OUYA board itself. I'm not going to try and keep it unplug-able like the V1.

 

I'm aiming to make this a monochrome build and thus decided to model new O,U,Y,A and center buttons with the text embossed onto them. Like the first one I'm keeping a good portion of the controller grips for comfort. I'll eventually get to a V3 where keeping it small will be the most important factor.

 

Initial napkin (everything starts with a napkin sketch) sketch; someone on another forum called this the GamebOUYA and I really like it.

I've already modeled and printed (via Shapeways) new covers to test with and to use as a cutting fence for the controller grips:

Revised and reordered from Shapeways:

    K, done and done. Let me know if the blog post works for you. It wouldn't let me post the whole thing as one big blog post. Too many images so I broke it up into a post and replied to myself with the rest…

    Had to take a break on the first build for a few days due to all the sanding making my sinues hurt. Haven't been sitting on my hands and have directed my energy to this build.
