Sega Dreamcast Stormtrooper Portable: the Dreamtrooper
October 15th, 2008
Sure, it’s past its time, but the SEGA Dreamcast is still one of the greatest video game systems of all time. So when I found out that someone out there had turned this classic console into an all-in-one portable, I was stoked.
It took modder Jon Jandran (aka “Hailrazer”) about 90 hours of blood, sweat and tears to transform a kids toy called a “Lazer Doodle” and into an elegant case for his Dreamcast portable that looks as good as anything that could have come off of the SEGA assembly line.
The portable integrates a Sony PSOne 5″ LCD screen, an InterAct Quantum Fighterpad controller, stereo speakers and a battery pack which lets him play for about 2.5 hours on a single charge. Check out the video clip below to see the Dreamtrooper in action.
Originally, Hailrazer planned on painting the case black and calling it the DarthCast Portable, but I think Stormtrooper helmet is more appropriate, since the original Dreamcast was white anyway.

Amen!

He hasn’t made the back of the case yet. But if it takes a few amputated fingers so I can play some Shenmue, I’m all for it.
do you have to by dreamcast games to play on the dreamtrooper and can you send blueprints o the Dreamtrooper.
What about the memory card O.o I didn’t see a spot for it, how would you save? Good job, I know I could never pull of a piece of work like that, you get Zels thumbs up of awesomeness *thumbs up*
