I wrote a reply......... where did it go?
? (excessive punctuation just for Piru :lol: )
With a Minimig size of 12cm square I have two case designs I am thinking of:
1. My favorite Joystick (Wico Red & Black Bat style) has a base that is molded in two parts, an upper half and lower half and it is almost 12cm square too. I would like to remove the lower half and replace it with a bit larger one that will still mate to the upper half and have enough room for the Minimig and perhaps 4 to 8 AA batteries that could be used to power the Minimig through a three way switch only when games that do not require a second joystick, or keyboard are being played. The originally designed power input jack would still be used for more power hungry Minimig use when a mouse and keyboard are attached, or a two player game is playing and a second joystick is plugged into the Minimig. Clean, compact and portable. Add a 4 inch LCD display to this design and you have an Amiga A500 to play anywhere you go, like waiting in the lobby of the doctor's office, standing in line at a concert, etc.
2. If/When the Minimig gets further revisions that allow it to access a hard drive, or a hack that will allow it to access an original Amiga floppy drive, it would be great to fit it into an old Amiga 1010 floppy drive enclosure and have it resemble (slightly) a Mac-Mini.
