new episode idea

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago

hi Ben, would it be possible for you to make a ps1 and then convert it into an all in one system (like an imac but with ps1 internals).

if atall possible, id like it if you could make an sd card reader rather than using the cd drive and could you build the actual ps1 rather than modding an existing one.

before you start, what would happen to it after the episode? would it get entered into a competition or would you keep it?

thanks alot, Arlen.

    "would it be possible for you to make a ps1 and then convert it into an all in one system (like an imac but with ps1 internals)."

    Are you talking about a Portable PS1? A all in once system usally includes multiable game system in one unit.

     

    "could you build the actual ps1 rather than modding an existing one."

    What???? You either start with a PS! or you have to buy PS1 parts. Its not like a computer where you can buy off the shelf parts and install the PS1 program unless you mean build a computer that has a emulator to run PS1 games.
