Yeah, the FPGA does seem like the main concern. So I think I really just need to get something working with an FPGA so I can learn about the process and then I can probably worry about the PCB details later if I'm even remotely successful with an FPGA scaling prototype of some kind. But it's...

This is exactly what I need to hear. I mean I mostly just want this for myself which is motivational enough, but hearing if other people want this is also very motivating. I will absolutely be sharing everything if I get something working. Thanks for the suggestion! I'll look into EasyEDA...

Ya know, that's a pretty good idea. It probably wouldn't solve the problem of getting a higher quality screen, but it should be a fairly economical way for me to figure out if I can get an FPGA working to drive a scale to another type of screen. Thanks for the idea!

Thanks Shank! I really appreciate the detailed reply. Honestly, that's very helpful to hear about Taki Udon. He really did make it seem like it was a simple process to get an OLED on a Switch Lite and I think I may have misinterpreted that. One of the things I've been wanting to know is how...

Hello everybody! I've got a project that I want to do, but I'm not sure where to start. I think it's a little too advanced for me with my current skillset, but I want to do it anyway, improving my skillset as I go. Project: Replace a Wii U gamepad's LCD screen with an OLED screen while...

Sorry I'm posting on such an old post, but just in case anyone was curious, the capacitor replacement worked! My friends were very happy to have their Wii working again. However, there's a small note I think I should make in case anybody looking around online wants to know about the kind of...

Gotcha, then I'll just get the 16v ones in case I need to replace the 16v one some time in the future. Thank you so much! I really appreciate the help. I'll be sure to use extra caution with my desoldering.

Hello! I'm trying to fix a Wii that has a weird video problem. I watched the following video by MattKC and I believe I have the exact same problem. The screen is super dark, but lightens a little bit over time. Sometimes it has other slightly weird visual errors, but that's the main one...

Hello! I'm new here and looking for a good place to ask questions about retro console mods/repairs. Looking forward to chatting with you all!
