Wireless PS3 Portable, a Mod to Remember

When you hear the word “mod,” you instinctively start imagining something something original and creative that will make your jaw drop or maybe not impress you at all because the theme chosen by the modder is simply not one of your favorites. Now, this mod right here is not at all one of those mentioned above, even though it is very creative and original. Actually, it is a practical mod. The PS3 gamer's dream, for short.

that will also show images on its own LCD screen. Hmm... can you imagine having multiple mods like this one? Let's face it, the SSD version of the PS3 is not actually that portable and it does require its own TV screen. All those problems don't exist with the Wireless PS3 Portable.

Modder BronckartN has made his very own portable PS3. Very well built, games do not lag on this man-made machine and it syncs immediately with the PS3. Whether Sony feels the slap or not, or as BronckartN thinks, Microsoft will inspire itself to do this kind of gaming gadget for the Xbox 360, I do not know. What I do see is a very simple, much needed and portable device that can be manufactured at home. With the right skills, of course.

No documentation whatsoever, about the building process, is present on the modder's blog. But I am sure that the big producers could easily produce it. He only says that it uses the same technology that a regular PS3 wireless controller uses. This kind of gadgets should not be kept away form gamer's hands. Instead of making the PS3 Slim, perhaps it would have been easier to manufacture something like this.
