Modder Folds PlayStation 1 Motherboard in Half to Create Handheld 'PS Hanami' Console
- A modder named YveltalGriffin turned a PlayStation 1 into a handheld console called the PS Hanami using hot glue and magnet wires
- They had to cut the motherboard in half and fold it like a book to fit inside the small chassis
- It runs games off an SD card using emulation software and has rumble capabilities
- The device has some issues like finicky power button, no volume control, only 2.5 hours of battery life
- Despite flaws, it's an impressive achievement to turn a home console into a portable handheld that can run PS1 games
