Hello everyone. Hope you're all doing well I finally call the Glacier Ice Gboy done! Worklog ENIG surface finish is totally worth it. The weird analog and button problems vanished! I didn't even have to troubleshoot. I had no issues connecting the audio & LED. It was now time to rubberband...

Happy New Year everyone! Hope you all had a great holiday and a pleasant first week. Time for some worklog update. Resin print First impression, It looks awesome! I went for the cheaper translucent option expecting it to be frosted and not clear. I had no intentions of painting the case at this...

Thanks Supertazon! I totally agree. Its a huge relief and kinda unbelievable to see the trim boot after all the things you do to it. The shell is pretty basic Translucent from PCBway. I plan to spray it with a clear coat. That's good to hear. Thanks Stitches. I'll go ahead and clip the nubbins :)

Hi everyone! Its almost 2024 and a perfect time to build a G-boy! or should I say the The G-Boy Rev4U! I'm making this a translucent shell with blue/white buttons so I'm calling it Glacier Ice! I have always wanted to build the Gboy from movement I saw it. Unfortunately I'm a little bit late...

I was able to fix it to a reasonable amount. Its by no means a perfect boot but it takes me a couple of quick restart to get going. I also didn't want to re-do my wiring since I scraped a lot off of some of the vias and getting a solid connection was a nightmare. Going through Gingers VODs and...

I got them from Aliexpress. You might want to order 2 sets of these since the Ashida uses two Z buttons. I reused the purple z button from my original GC controller buttons. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004531769873.html

Alright, One last update. I did a lot of testing and my Ashida had surprisingly good connections. It used to boot 10:10 times and the usb/audio had no issues at all. I was super satisfied with the build and finally ready to tighten the screws. This is where things took a turn :( I would have...

Finally! I was able to fix the audio issue. It was a combination of the MC wire length and not soldering the ground wrapping wire properly. The wire in the image is just a test. I re-did the wires properly and everything works great! Now time for some Wind Waker stress tests and on to the MX...

Hi Pez Blast. Great worklog! I was able to reference a lot and fix a bunch of issues I had on my own build. How did you fix the audio issue you were having earlier?

I have no audio from the speaker or headphones. Not even static. Any ideas what might be causing this? Just to test, I played Wind Waker for about 30 mins and the following are my observations 1. Game works flawlessy. No glitches or visual artifacts. No sound. 2. L button was not working in...

Hello! Hope you all had a great weekend! I have a big update! I was able to get a lot done over the weekend and I almost have a fully working Ashida. :D I did run into a few issues that I'm having difficulty with. 1. Audio I have no audio output from the speaker or headphones. I did notice...

Hello everyone. Its time for another update. :) Spoiler alert, my trimmed wii is ALIVE!! I ran into a couple of beginner mistakes which I was well aware of and tried to avoid as mush as possible, but my eagerness got the better of me. I would like to reiterate for any beginners like me reading...

Awesome! Thank you CrazyGadget for explaining the resistances and continuity. That makes a lot of sense now. I'll also keep the lower grit sandpaper in mind for any future trims. :)

Hi all! I've been lurking on and off around Bitbuild for a couple of years now and finally got the courage to start my first portable. I'm super new to soldering and all things electrical. The max I did before this was swap out a couple of Gameboy and PSP shells. I started practicing soldering...

Hey! I’m new here and looking to build my first Ashish. I’m interested in 1 or more Ashida shell in GameCube indigo.
