    Question Getting started on an Ashida - Trim and Power

    PD2 isn't necessary, just adds extra, convenient features. No, you need to have batteries connected to the PMS 2 for it to work, but you can charge those batteries through the PMS 2 using a 5v wall wart. 9-12v is more optimal, so the Wii's power brick would work perfectly for this. Minimum to...

    I wonder if I could squeeze out a few extra seconds of battery life on the Kill Mii

    Question I accidentally removed a capacitor

    You are fine for both. The first cap is just a filtering cap. It will work without it, just helps clean up noise. You will likely be tapping the video signal before this cap though, so shouldn't make a difference. The second cap is for 5v, which normally isn't even connected to the trimmed...

    Modern Piiwii Pocket

    It really is a comfortable form factor. Once I held the SL-57 in my hands I was like "yup, this is right". Maybe I should go after an SL-53ish case design in the future.

    Guide Wii Undervolting "guide" and stats. (incomplete)

    Makes me wonder if running both the 1v and 1.15v off a shared, single 1-1.05V rail would have any benefits? Would love for someone smarter to chine in on this idea.

    Question Consolizing the 3DS through the Wii U interface

    I really haven't done all that much with the Wii U. Seems people online elsewhere have been able to interface other devices to the gamepad, like this project for example.

    Question Consolizing the 3DS through the Wii U interface

    It is one of those things that is probably possible, but would be extremely advanced. You likely wouldn't use the Wii U at all, beyond the gamepad. You would have to modify the 3DS to capture the display signal for both screens, output one through HDMI, and the other wirelessly to the Wii U...

    Can/How can I modify a laptop screen to display output from HDMI/AV/anything?

    If you are building a portable Wii, I recommend the 5" IPS widescreen from 4Layer Tech. If you are looking for a screen try searching "480p TFT VGA" on ebay. That will give you some results of some various screens out there.

    Can/How can I modify a laptop screen to display output from HDMI/AV/anything?

    The short answer: No The long answer: This is a common question, but it falls into the unfortunate category of "if you have to ask, the answer is probably no" To do so you would need a board that is designed and programmed to drive that very specific model of screen, as well as accepts standard...

    Solved What heatsink material is the best to use?

    Heatsink physics are complicated. But in it's simplest terms... more conductivity, more surface area, and more airflow all play a role. The more of each, the more effective your cooling will be. For the Wii, you are looking at under 10 watts, so there's not a lot of heat to dissipate. Copper...

    So much pain getting that thing to close with everything in it. Make sure you don't overtightened the screws and make them poke out the other side. Not speaking from experience or anything...
