    Hey pals! Does anyone know if I can cut my mainboard trough these red lines and still be able to use the board without custom regulators? In case you couldn't see the board version, It's RVL-CPU-40

    Question Trimming but Keeping the Bluetooth Connector Question

    I was wondering if this trim would be possible. I want to keep the Bluetooth connector so I don't have to try and solder to the very tiny contacts. Would I also be able to keep the sync button if I give it power and don't cut that area out?
  6. Solved Viable Additional Trim?

    I've been putting together a G-Wii, but including a memory card slot. However, I recently discovered that I can't fit the memory card slot in with the Wii as I currently have it trimmed.

    Question First time trimming, have both a CPU-01 and CPU-40 revision Wiis

    Heya, quarantine got me bored asf and I grew up on the Wii/GC both so I'm interested in making a portable. Blame my utter daftness and idiocy for overlooking the warning not to use a SanDisk USB drive. Well, I was able to use it to install BBLoader, however it got stuck on "exitting" after...

    Solved Following the Wii Trimming Guide

    Hello. When looking at the trimming guide, there are multiple things highlighted with the same color. Does this mean the wire can be attached anywhere highlighted in the color, or just a specific location? Thank you!

    Solved Relocating/Trimming 6-layer Documentation

    Hello, community. I have begun preparing my RVL-CPU-01 Wii motherboard for relocation and trimming, but I cannot find video/photo documentation showing what a successful 6-layer OM6 trim and Bluetooth/U10 relocation should look like. I've checked out both 'The Definitive Wii Trimming Guide' as...
  13. Question Can I get away with not trimming at all?

    Sounds like a dumb question. "Just follow the trimming guide. Stick with what works". I'm kinda just curious though, would it be feasible to make a portable with the full-size Wii board inside? It's not *that* huge, so if I didn't care about the size of the portable too much, would this be an...

    Heyo, I was wonder what the deal is with Bluetooth relocation, as I would like to play Wii games on my first portable.
