So ever since about September I have been hyperfixated on portables and console modding. Finally, here I am building my own. As for my first time doing this I have decided to build a Ashida. After a bunch of research I'm at 90% 80% 75% of understanding on how to build this. Anyways for my first...

So as part of building an Ashida I need some GC joysticks. The BOM doesn't give a link to any but does recommend to harvest some from a GC controller but that has proved to be a colossal pain in the ass to try and remove them without wrecking them. So I have decided to go down the lazy path and...

I'm getting tired of paying pcbway absorbent amounts for 3d prints so I think its finally time I get a 3d printer of my own. So I got some questions about 3d printers I hope you wont mind answering. -Which 3d printer should I get with no previous experiences 3d printing -Which filament...

Hi, I am trying to update my Wii to 4.3, and every time I attempt an update I get error code 32007. The progress bar doesn't even really move before this happens. Most online recources say that this is because of a softmod update blocker but I have tried to boot into priiloader by holding down...

Hello, I have been interested in Wii modding for quite a while and I've been practicing soldering for a few months and I finally worked up the courage to try a Wii project. As the title states, I'm gonna do a Wii Micro to help dip my toes into Wii modding. Also this is my first project and I...

I decided on doing a Wii micro as a first Wii project and something interesting I noticed with the trim is it leaves part of where the GC memory card slot would go and as a result, it requires the removal of the GC memory card slot. Though I am unsure of how I'm supposed to do this and I haven't...

I am about to start my first wii project but just to be safe I wanna ask if there is a set amount of time I should wait after unplugging my Wii before it's safe to start slicing up the motherboard or can I just unplug it and get to cutting.

Hello, I am just about to order my parts for my own Ashida but there are a few things I need some clarification on. Also, I'm sorry if these are dumb questions I am still relatively new to console modding. -When using the u10 emulation from the RVL-PMS do I only have to remove the u5 chip and...

Hello, I have kind of a noobie question. In Nold's Wii Micro what point does the other end of the cut-off yellow wire get soldered to? Also, does that image show all of the voltage rewirings needed (excluding 1.8v, 3.3v, 1.15v, and 1v of course)?

I've been seeing a lot on the forums here that a lot of people like the 18650 batteries but there are apparently alot of fakes being sold. So does anyone know a safe and reliable place to get these batteries without the prices being really jacked up? (Also I live in North America so preferably a...

I'm researching for a SNES portable and while doing so a lot of people were saying the SNES motherboard is the exact same as the NES motherboard. If this is true is working on a SNES the same as an NES just with some updated software? (I know its probably better and easier just to use a Rasberry...

So I have been doing some research on BitBuilt about the Wii portable and I know how to trim down the motherboard and make it smaller but that's as far as I know. Does anyone know any step-by-step guide on how to build a Wii Portable because all the ones I have been seeing are for the no longer...

In the Revision Identification Guide its stated that the 4 layer boards are a lot better power and heat-wise but it needs 2 difficult solder connections. For research purposes does anyone know if it is worth using the 4 layer board over the 6 layer one or is the solder connections too difficult...
