New SNES portable is heavy on the SNES, light on the portable

Filed under:

The SNES has certainly proven to be one of the most popular consoles to get the portable treatment among those go-getter console modders out there, and it looks like it’s not showing any signs of losing that status, with this so-called SNEP (Super Nintendo Entertainment Portable) only the latest to pop up on our radar. As you can see above, this one is a tad less portable than some other handheld SNES mods we’ve seen (it also apparently needs to be plugged in), but it does at least do better job than most at staying true to the SNES’s (or, more accurately, the Super Famicom’s) instantly-recognizable appearance. There’s no plans available for building your own, unfortunately, but you can check it out in action in the video after the break.
