Yeah, we're all been-there-done-that with portable SNESs these days, but we've never seen it done like this. Marshall posted his creation, dubbed the "SUPERTENDO," to Ben Heck's forums, which seems to imply (along with the looks) that he took some queues from similar designs already floating around those parts. What really sets this one apart, however, is the vacuum-formed chassis and the instant "make me an offer" move to a sale -- being owned by a major faceless media conglomerate ourselves, we like to see a guy who's out for a buck. A quick hands-on Video is after the break.

That looks nice... Nicer infact than that handheld SEGA gave a license to, Nintendo should do the same with something like this.

Wow, the cartridge sits nicely.

The SNES Flash Cart will be good, though I like the look of the original cartridges. :)
