Lets open it now, so we can talk about the systems themselves, not just hackability.

I seriously doubt that any of the Next Gen consoles will be portablizable. The Gamecube is the only current gen console to be made portable from it's original form. We will have to wait for revisions of the XBOX 360 and PS3, like a PSThree, before there is any legitamate chance for these to be portablized. If one were to be made into a portable however my guess would be the Revolution. It is compact and has potential, as long as you can use Gamecube controllers for Rev games, otherwise you're screwed.

I'm gonna be making a Revolution portable ;)....it'll be real simple, just a kind of add-on with a screen, GC controller, and batteries....

Edit: oh yeah, and I'll be having the controller velcro on somewhere, like MF said :P
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

I'm hoping you mean that you can't make a PS2p out of the original console...otherwise, I spit on your lack of knowledge of Ben's (and a few other people's) PS2ps!

Actually, the Xbox is the only current-gen system that wasn't portablized, right? I know Ben made a PS2p, and didn't someone else make one too?

I meant it was the only current gen console to be made portable from it's original design. As all the PS2ps I have seen have been made from PSTwos, not the original PS2. And there has yet to be any XBOXp. Sorry if this caused any confusion. :?
