Longhorn Engineer Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 (edited) I finished this one a couple months ago. Been putting it through its paces and it seems to be a pretty hardy unit! This portable is based off the Retro Duo Console, not two separate NES and SNES. Work Log Final Specs * 4.2 Hours of battery life (based on SNES playing if I remember correctly) * 2 Hour charge time * Plays NES and SNES games * Rubber tacts that feel like a normal controller * Stereo Sound with Headphone jack * Second player Port * Dimensions 9 3/8" x 5 1/8" x 1 5/8" * Solid Mahogany and Curled Maple Casing High Resolution Pictures Comes with a charger. The only issue with the portable is that when in SNES mode there are some faint lines on the screen. Most people never notice them until I point it out to them. This seems to be a common problem with Retro Duos. NES mode is fine. The lines do not come up in the pictures. I personally do not find them distracting or even notice them while playing the game. Price will be $450+ shipping. Will ship international. Paypal or Money Order accepted. Edited February 6, 2009 by Longhorn Engineer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Climber Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Way cool but soooo out of my price range. I bet it's worth every penny though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninermaniac Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Very impressive. I always felt that wood complements the look of an Atari portable because of it's roots but this Retro Duo portable fits right in. Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longhorn Engineer Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 (edited) Is this compatible with the RetroUSB PowerPak or Tototek SNES flash carts?? If so I will buy it! According to this post here it is. edit// Looking at some other sites some say it is some say there are some slight issues with the PowerPak. I wish I had a PowerPak now for you know testing I can see if my local game store has one. I doubt they will though.

RGB_Gamer Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 No word from Eastbay. I just remembered that I would like it if it had RGB output but I don't think that's possible since it's based on the NOAC. Thanks anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longhorn Engineer Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 I'd like to see a wooden GP2X case mod that gives it a good joypad. If someone sponsors it a wooden GP2X case could happen If i don't sell it here on these forums then I will take it to MGC and sell it there.

Longhorn Engineer Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 bump Lower Price! This is as low as I can go. I went through 3 Retro Duos (experimenting is bad mmmk!) and I will be breaking about even at $450. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
