portable

This project is self-explanatory. I'm taking a Raspberry Pi 2, chucking it into a case with a screen and batteries. I'll chop up a broken Super Nintendo controller and embed in into the case. The screen of my choice is a generic 5" widescreen TFT display. I don't really have a plan with...

Hello! I was wondering if anyone had any techniques to share for housing components in a case that is originally not made for your perticular components, especially with Frankencasing, like buttons, joysticks, switches, screen, breadboards... It's not just a matter of hot glue. -How do make...

So I discovered that you can buy "18650" 3.7V Li-ion cells (5800mah/per cell apparently) for really cheap here in Canada, plus they're quite small. Four of them wired in series can supply 14.8V... a good amount to give to a Wii portable, no? Wondering if any of you have done this or if it's a...

Since I'm dealing with power here I decided it better to ask first instead of just winging it. I'm hoping to achieve power without a brick, like Gman's Wii Micro. How should I go about this? What would I need? IIRC wii portables run off less than 2 amps, so could I just get a 12v 2 amp power...

So, in case you haven't heard, Sony tweeted not too long ago that there will be an update with USB's / External HDD's. If this is really a thing, and since we can already get a PS4 OS running on any HDD by just downloading it off there website...

It's finished. I got my Pro Controller today. Here's some pics of the whole thing : *BIG INHALE* *ᵉˣʰᵃᶫᵉ* Hey everyone. This is my first portable ever. I'm really excited for this, and am willing to put in tons of time into this project. You guys are some of the most helpful people...

I'd love to get rid of these things. I have a bout a zillion, and they're great, but sadly sit in a large box in the corner. Here's the old ebay listing: Seriously, I'm taking offers. I have over a hundred. Down to trade, or sell pretty cheap. They're dope. Believe me. Uuuuuuusssse...

Here is a guide written by @Luke with some help from me with verifying and editing. It's not the classical Bitbuilt style but we believe that it's slightly more noob friendly. We hope that this is used in conjunction with any other official information that is documented here on BitBuilt...

Hi, My name is Meshari, & this is my first post here. i don't know how to use any 3D designing program , but i'm a little bit better with photoshop and i have this idea for making a wii that can be hanged on my office wall or my living room wall and playing with it whenever i feel board, and...

Well, I'm wrapping up on my first GC portable... just case work left pretty much and since I have almost all the parts for a Wii portable, (mainly a Wii U Case to put it all in) I figured I would make this my next portable project. So far I have the following parts either in hand or on the...

Shutout to The Mod Shop on Youtube for referring me to here (His channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRmjSpXJO4eVu5Pt2oKEadQ) Hello world, I am new to BitBuild and I came here to get help on my first build. I am looking to make a portable GameCube. I was looking to have it in almost like...

After doing my research on powering the wii, I have to decide on batteries and came across something I haven't seen yet. The cool part about the custom regulators is that you seem to be able to power it with whatever voltage you want (above 5v I believe). So that means that it's within the...

A few years ago on BenHeck, I asked if it would be possible to connect a Wii Disc Drive to a GameCube in order to slim down the GameCube for a portable that included a working disc drive. Well, at the time everyone told me it was impossible, that it would never work,band that noone would ever...

I have been working on a portable for about 2 weeks now, and up until now i always used a normal softmod and usb loader. But now that i got to the part of removing the disk board i installed PortablizeMii and when booting any game (Wii or Gamecube) it just gives me a black screen and no audio...

Preface This is my first attempt at really anything 'diy'. I'm looking to make a more portable and accessable Wii. It doesn't need to be hand held, mearly a replacement for my dead laptop. A gaming machine I can take on the go to a friends house or other parts of my house that don't normally...

So I have pretty much concluded that the stock pcm my batteries came with is fried. I think my dremel or soldering iron must've damaged it. But I was wondering if anyone has had experience using this one. Any advice would be much appreciated.

I am referring to the circuit inside of the portable and how can you add a battery life indicator to tell if the battery is charged or dead? SOLVED:

I'm looking at different options for heat sinks right now for my n64p. These are what I'm considering: But my question is: Is there anything wrong with using the heatsinks that come with the n64? No portable I've seen has used them. Is there a reason for this that I am missing? EDIT: There...

I have begun work on my first "polished" GameCube portable. Previously, I have made some rudimentary portable consoles, but this will be my first attempt to make a higher-quality, durable, and most of all usable portable console. Because of the accomplishments of the "Wiisearch and Development"...

Hey everyone, I'm pretty new to Portablizing and console modding, but I thought I would post my worklog for you all to see. If you have any advice or tips, please let me know! I was first introduced to portablizing quite a few years ago when I was 18. I didn't know much about electronics, I'd...
