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.

Custom portable Dreamcast is fascinating, punishable offense

... already been replicated with newer, official products many times over? It must be a desire to taste a small portion of the pride felt by Minimac itself when it imagines a new item for each of to enjoy.
I hope to answer these questions and more when interviewing Hellrazer, who was corralled and seized for reprocessing at 0721 this morning, along with several cohabitants of his vine when they objected to the mandatory quarantine and incineration of their housing modules.

... screen off a PS1 portable, a Quantum Fighter pad for the controls and some expensive rechargeable batteries.
The DreamTrooper is not 100% complete just yet, but it is in full working order and appears to have built-in memory. On the Benheck forums, before he made the device, he mentions the idea of an in-built VMU, but the video doesn’t specify if he has, or where it is. But when he loads Sonic Adventure 2, it looks like he has a few saved files there already.

Dreamcast molded into a handheld form, dubbed DreamTrooper
CrunchGear —
What gamer doesn’t have fond memories of the Sega Dreamcast? Apparently this guy wanted to relive those Jet Set Radio days while on the go - or in his cubical. This mod started as a Lazer Doodle toy and then after a bunch of cutting, epoxing, sanding, and dreaming, the whole thing plays 10-year old games. The whole thing is gigantic when compared to a modern handheld gaming device, but still, he made it himself and that’s why it’s eff’n cool.

... can't even imagine the number of popped tents this beautiful handheld Dreamcast is going to provoke. It really is a work of beauty, isn't it? We've seen portable Dreamcasts before, but this one just looks so much better. Created by Hailrazer on the Ben Heck Forums, it brings tears of both joy and sadness. It's such an awesome piece of work, yet it just brings back bad memories of the Dreamcast's untimely demise. Sigh. [Ben Heck Forums via BBG]

DarthCast The Portable Dreamcast

... Sega's Dreamcast was a great machine, but too bad the console died an officially premature death, much to the chagrin of Dreamcast fans. For those who are still in love with this platform, modder Hailrazer has taken an old Dreamcast, a Lazer Doodle, a Quantam Controller, a Pico 120 watt power supply unit and 12V batteries to conjure ...

Dreamtrooper, Stormtrooper Head Dreamcast Portable Costs the Life of at Least One Laser Doodle
The UberReview —
The Dreamtrooper, which is the work of BenHeck.com forum member “hailrazer,” puts the guts of a Dreamcast in a disemboweled Lazer Doodle and looks damned good in the process. Hailrazer also manages to work in a bit of a stormtrooper motif, which only increases the awesomeness of this mod.
