Xbox Laptop Guy Designs Portable Emulator
Home : News : News Story

First he put an Xbox 360 inside a laptop. Now he's putting retro games inside a portable emulator. But will it ever go on sale?


His name is Ben Heck, and he's the designer behind the infamous Xbox 360 Laptop. Not content with putting a console inside the body of a laptop, Ben has now set his sights on creating a portable emulator. The idea is that users of the device would be able to play retro games on-the-go.

Dubbed the "GamePort", the device has run into a few problems getting off the ground. It seems that the distribution company has hit some legal problems. They're working on a way around these issues, and may end up just selling the device online. We'll keep you posted. In the mean time, visit the product page for more info.
