but doesn't the click switches take away from the sensitivity of control? Like you can't get much variation in strength of movement that way it's either on or off.
@Lassi Kinnunen Hell, a single surface mount 5 way tactile switch from Sparkfun is only $2 and the Neo Geo Pocket/Pocket Color used a 4 way tactile switch instead of a D-Pad in the late 90s. The additional cost would've been low enough that they probably wouldn't have needed to up the cost or if they wanted to maintain the same per unit profit margin maybe bump the price $5-$10. I have no idea why anyone would defend SNK's decision here.
@@sams6090 That's exactly what those games were designed for. If you ever play an actual Neo Geo MVS cabinet you'll find the stick uses tactile switches. That's why if you buy say, a Sanwa kit, the stick has tactile switches and not an analog stick.
Ben, you honestly make me think we are in the golden age of personal creativity. The affordable tech we have today, combined with access to information really makes it a great time to be a creative person.
Great work! Love how you take the time to explain what you are doing and the tools that you use, without frantic editing and music over time-lapse high speed assembly. Other presenters could learn a lot from you.
Do continue. I enjoyed it. The shop stories, little anecdotes, and b roll too. I liked the way you showed your thought processes. From probe, design, print, test...finished project. Please keep them coming.
Nice project!!! Thanks for many years of inspiration, good to see you back in action, keep going!!!, I previously had some education in programming, but thanks to your inspiration I start making my own projects helping my family business to keep going forward. It is amazing what a single spark can do.
very awesome as always Ben; of course we'd like to see more cool videos like this on your channel. you inspire us and want to become professional makers such as yourself 👍
I love that you're helping those in gaming needs! You are great at what you do, and I've learned a lot from you! I retro fitted my Grandfather's DREMEL table jig saw with a modern electrical ground plug because the electrical cable was shedding old plastic when I used it. I used your soldering techniques to do it! The thing is from the 50's from my research!
All I can hope is that you post what you want when you want, without being held to some sort of production schedule. Love Ben Heck Hacks whenever they come in!
I love your work! I just don't want you to feel tied to TH-cam like it is a job. Your creativity is so refreshing, and inspiring. Please keep up the wonderful work, when you have time.
This is awesome, so glad your back to making these videos. This reminds me so much of the old days... like you've gone back to your roots, and the roots have really fricken missed you.
This was one hell of a build! I wish I learned circuitry and computer programming as a young adult. I would love to be able to do things like this. Nice job Ben!
His fingers are, in fact, hands. So Ben has 12 hands in total. Which explains how he is so good at building stuff. Only thing left is to wonder if his finger's hands *_fingers_* have hands. Which would made him some sort of "fractal man".
It's amazing how better the channel is without a bunch of suits on your back forcing you to do things quicker. The quality and details of the show is much better!!! If you can stay this way, please do!!!
Yes, please do more of this? I find it endlessly fascinating to watch you tear things down. I used to tear things apart myself as a kid, but I got into too much trouble for it, and I sucked at math, so I never persued it. I really like seeing how things work, so I live vicariously through people like you, who have the tools and the resources to monkey with things.
So glad to see you get back to your roots. I started watching your videos when they were on metacafe. I found those videos better than what you were doing for element 14. You showed more details and explained things in depth.
Absolutely do more videos like this, Ben. Even if you need to stretch the videos out over multiple segments to make it more profitable, do it. You've got a lot of dedicated fans!
Oh Ben! I’m so happy that you’re ‘back’. When you stopped with the show, I thought this is it. Now I was looking at reviews for the Neo Geo mini and there you are again! I’m so happy!
Funny how this home-made device looks more like an official SNK product than the actual SNK product! It's almost like it's not a cheap cash grab or something...
Ben! So good to see you again. Of course I would love to see more of what you do still. I know you've probably heard this several times over now and I apologize for saying it, you have inspired me. I was always rather bad at trying to keep up with all this electronic stuff and jargon I learned years ago but it never stuck. I can say now you alone jumpstarted my passion for all this retro tech and electronic tinkering again. Not just that but you gave me the idea to think outside the box and make something better from what your given, like this Neo Geo mini unit. I have watched all of your mini redesigns multiple times over and I think not only did I learn more about electronics than I did before but it stuck with me what each part was. With that said I would love to see you continue to inspire people - new, old, and slightly odd like me.
To be fair, not everyone reads posts before posting. I nearly said the same thing, but figured it was already said. Ben Heck also says it in the video...doesn't make it any less funny. :)
It originated from SNK's Tweeted answer on why the Mini's joystick isn't like the original Neo•Geo trademark sticks. Even the awful Neo•Geo X had them.
Please do keep doing more videos like this. This has exactly the right amount of production value for my liking. No need to have segments or a camera guy, just point a tripod and do your thing!

Fantastic job you did, looks wonderful. Loved watching you remake it! Oh, in Japan, the full size MVS cabs did actually look like the mini you had with the blue top. There is a "History of SNK" video on TH-cam that shows them both in an arcade and being loaded onto a truck. The red & white design came a bit later.
Nice work. Please get a better 3D printer though :-) The only down side on this (but easy to correct) is the micro switches used only have a 30,000 press cycle life, so they could burn out in as little as 10 hours of constant play more aggressive players.
Hey man I've really missed seeing you make stuff! This was a real treat. The Ben Heck Show seemed to slowly sap your enthusiasm for what you were doing, and now that you've stepped away from that situation I hope you've been able to simply enjoy "making" again. I think I speak for all us internet strangers who love your videos when I say I hope you continue to give us these glimpses of the cool stuff you decide to create. Happy Thanksgiving!
Stepped away from your show for a few years and just found out you're moving on. Thanks for all the interesting builds and insights. I'll always have the Heck Yeah t-shirt that I won from back in the day!
Great video! It's actually pretty cool to see you working with your own tools and stuff, which brings it closer to the type of things I can get access to.
Back to doing what you love. Ben Heck is best haxor of all time. Yes please keep making videos like this. It really shows when you're enjoying a project!
So glad to see you back with this type of content! I absolutely love it. Have you thought about making your STL files public if people want to try making one similar? I don't have those Autodesk skills at all.
Very nice to see you're making videos again! And might I be so bold as to say it's extremely refreshing without background music, transitions and in-video ads? Great stuff! :-)
I feel like this is still perfect size for a DMG Gameboy, might have to play around with that myself. Definitely please keep doing retro console break downs/portables/hacks. It's very encouraging to me as I look for fun new ways to breath life into old consoles. I also really love how much they pulled off with some of these consoles back in the day.
Really cool to see that you're back to doing these miniaturisation projects. Not only do they teach you about certain concepts, but are also pretty fun to watch. Thanks Ben, please keep on hacking.
Hey, thanks for yacht-rock, had no idea it was a whole genre and now that I'm a dad I can listen with impunity. The build was great as always, really missed these while you were away, hope you're well
Another awesome project by the legendary Been Heck!! Glad to see you still doing stuff like this, great work and keep it up!! Can't wait to see other projects you work on, I would love to see more videos!! :)
I was SO glad to find your personal channel! I stopped watching Element14 after you left because these are the kinds of videos that I wanted to see. It's amazing how you take consoles and computers and turn them into handhelds. Please keep doing this!
And Ben gets back to his roots.. I've been a fan for years, since the first 2600 portable. Glad to have you back, Ben!
icondonnied --- Way better than that overproduced Element 14 nonsense. Just Ben, although I miss Felix, and his builds.

Please Ben, I want my satisfaction in _stereo_ if you can afford and extra mic, or if not that at least caption with a lav your voice and faux-stereo it.
The micro switches alone make this far more attractive than the commercial release. The form factor is only a bonus.
Ben Heck is now officially my hero. I want a Ben Heck edition Neo Geo Mini.

Not like it would be the first gadget that bore his name.

I can’t imagine a Ben Heck fan not enjoying this build. It turned out great!
All jokes aside, Ben Heck was one of the big reasons that I want to pursue a career as an electronics engineer. Love the work.

are we gonna see more uploads?

Take notes SNK!! This is how you make a HANDHELD!!! Awesome!

This is incredible. You basically took this machine and reconfigured it into a Gameboy with the full power of a Neo Geo. Well done, sir!
awesome work Ben! Now turn the original case into a mini JAMMA cabinet :)
Loved it, brings me back to when I started watching your videos nearly a decade ago.
0:21 What did the Neo Geo Pocket use?

Nice video, Master Ben! Greetings from Brazil!
Mapping the arc of the thumb is such a simple, intuitive, and good solution to the problem of button layout. How have I never seen that before?!
So glad I found your new channel. Hope this one is profitable for you.
Love having you back, thanks for making this (the video and the neo geo mini) for your fans.
