I'm not quite sure yet. I'm waiting for an idea to come along. I'm sure they'll be pretty useful at some point!

Have you ever heard of a gamecube portable?

So, first you have the guts of a gamecube, then you wire a small screen and batteries to it, next you re wire parts of the controller, lastly put it all in a awesome case and you now have a gamecube portable!
