OUYA handheld build log V2 - GamebOUYA

eucrow

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:

To be continued...

    Yep. The first one's done, I just have to photograph and post pics. I'm just about ready to start painting the second. I'm planning on starting a third one sometime next week. I'd like to get it smaller still, it needs to be small enough to use on my morning commute. At some point I'd like to go back and revisit/rebuild these first two. There are a few things I did awkwardly that I'd like to correct though at this point it would be easier to remake them than to try and fix them.
