Just finished my shell swap for the portable PS2 handheld! Credits to Tschiki for the build and @CNCDan for printing this amazing shell on his Form 4! Pinching myself how good it turned out! 😁

The 4th episode of my Space Cadet Pinball series is live now! I've finalised the flippers and slingshots, added the black hole mechanism and tried a viewer idea for the wormholes! As always thanks for the support! @PCBWayOfficial @luzooki @SGirl0311 youtu.be/jp7qtPu2hbU

What a privilege to be able to own one of the coolest hardware pieces ever made - a real PS2 portable made from a SCPH-90004 slim PS2! "Sony, make a PS2 portable for everyone, and my life is yours!" github.com/tschicki/PS2-Port…
