@DekuNut, If you are comparing the ElectronAVE kit to the RVL-DD the price isn't even drastically that different. The RVL-DD kit is just 20 dollars more, and that makes sense considering it is a more specialized kit. Sure FugiFlex is cheaper, but you need to assemble it yourself and that...

It took longer than expected but I finally installed the ElectronAVE hdmi mod. I started with exposing the vias and tinning them Then I attached the mod board At this point I attached the rest of the wires to test it, but it wasn't working. That was a big letdown, but I pushed through and...

I went ahead and took the scraps from the trimmed motherboard of the Wiiclipse and removed the Gamecube ports from it using my Dremel. After a bit of sanding and some further trimming of things that stuck out too far, it fit into the case nicely, and just like I wanted, the spacing is...

Things are getting real. Literally I went ahead and printed the case out, and WOW this thing is tiny. I always understood the scale of it, but it's one thing looking at the numbers on a computer screen and actually holding it in your hands. Of course it's not as small as the Short Stack, but...

I’m running out of things to add to the cad model. I’m going to have to start printing and testing tolerances and fits soon. First of all, I went ahead and added the acrylic ring that will glow inside the disc slot. You can kinda see it in this photo. Then I wanted to start working on the way...

The intake for the fan is through the existing vent holes on the Wii. The problem is it's going to be hard to design ducts that run to those

Oh well, I probably wouldn't win anyway. Do you think there will be enough air flow?

Yeah so it really is starting to feel like things are coming along in this design. I started modeling the air duct where air is channeled out through the disc slot. I think it looks pretty cool, and I like how you can see the heat sink through the disc slot. Since I couldn’t find any fans...

I decided today to make a scale stand for the Wii. It’s purely optional and for aesthetics, but I think it’s a nice thing to have. It’s not shown in any of the photos but I also do have the channel in the stand for the bottom air vent. I have a feeling it will be important to have the bottom...

I had a conversation in the BitBuilt discord and it should be fine. Probably. I hope so. In the scenario it doesn't work I will use a PMS. As for a public version optimal for the widest audience I might make a change to something else, or I just put the whole 4-layer suite in there and tell...

I have other plans for the front of the Wii console, but it's an option. Also I am not sure what you mean by replacing the battery hookups. This wont have batteries, and I don't plan on using a PMS unless I have to, unless you are talking about battery hookups ion the PMS PD 3, but that doesn't...

Hm, alright. Which board would be the best to get. I don't want to get something that will potentially break the Wii. Also, I would need to get another one of those sandisk micro sd card adapters. Also then the sd card would be locked in the Wii and there would be no way to access and change...

Well no. I mean just like plug into the usb port of a computer or monitor. It would be hard to fit a usb port on here too (besides the usb-c power port). Also what do you mean by the simplest assembly? I still need a board for usb-c power

yeah I'll make a version for the ElectronAnalog, but i do want at least my personal one to use the ElectronAVE kit. I have a wireless Wii sensor bar and it sucks. Not only do i have to deal with batteries, but it takes 4 aaa batteries and it goes through them really quickly. This isn't a...

So I managed to make some space for the GameCube ports so I don’t need to remove the LDO. It’s going to be a tight fit but I think I can get it to work. This came at the cost of shifting the GameCube ports down so they are no longer centered. It’s a small price to pay. I started adding the...

ooooh yeah that would be interesting. Is that a full sized HDMI port too? I might just need to make an alternate design for that. I already ordered an ElectronAVE kit. As for the shell height the target size is 107mm x 78mm x 22mm, so it should be under 22mm, ideally less than around 15mm so I...

I think the big issue with cooling for me is trying not to add any holes onto the case that aren't there on the Wii already. I have a few Ideas for cooling but I would also like to see what ideas people have I can't find anything called the ElectronHDMI. I assume you mean the ElectronWarp from...

So I started working on the cad, and I must say, it is really easy to make something look like the Wii. That image doesn’t do a good job showing scale. Here is an image of me trying to position an OMGWTF trim inside of it. Not much room inside. I tried to position the Wii such that maybe I...

First thing I wanted to do was get some basic measurements to see how feasible this is. First thing was measuring the Wii. My Dial caliper was too small for the larger measurements, but I ended up with the dimensions of 214mm x 156mm x 44mm. Please let me know if I am off on the measurements...

Ah, so the project name was already taken, but it sounds like you stopped working on your project so I hope you're ok with me using the name. I want to have it run off of a usb-c port, so If I need to use and RVL-PMS board, I'll probably use one of those. Thanks for the feedback!
