... The latest from the forum Sifu’s Nintendo Sixtyfree Lite-R is a 5-inch screened portable N64, which too deserves a noted mention. Adorned in the original plastic makeover, the ultra-portable N64 mod has all the features and buttons of the actual controller but is more graceful with headphone jack space and C-button sick, but no batteries included. The picture below will give you a better insight.

SifuF’s portable N64, Semi-portable Gorgeousness in Plastic
The UberReview —
... a portable or rather semi-portable N64 with some mighty sweet form factor. The only thing that it is missing is a battery pack. Other than that, it is small enough to enjoy the N64’s one good game (Golden Eye) almost anywhere you like (that has a power source). Though it was long ago, I still regret the day that I decided that an N64 was a smarter choice than a Playstation. If it had looked like this, however, I might have felt a little better about it.
