Progress

Progress is being made:

That's right, the PSone screen and N64 are both crammed into that case. The game cartridge is inserted behind (not in sight).

It was powered by this homemade battery (5 AAs taped together in series):

But that battery couldn't sustain the 7.5v output with both N64 and PSone screen attached.

I will need to buy a rechargable li-ion battery for this. (will need to be ~7.4v, 5000mAh+, and come with charger).

Currently it is powered by the PSone screen power block which I rewired to go in place of where my battery was.

Here is a bigger overview showing all the wiring so far (still got plenty more to do! Controller, fan, charger port, headphone jack, AV-out, other player ports…):

I want a portable N64.

I would pay for one.

So are you just mixing and matching parts from various consooles?

Woah, man. Combining the N64 with the PSOne?

That kind of technology could rip a dimension or two.
