    Question Ashida case color opinions

    I know it's a pretty subjective thing but I was looking for some thoughts on potential Ashida color schemes. I have ordered most of the parts to begin the build outside of the shell which I am still undecided on. I do plan to buying a good quality resin print from either PCBway or Craftcloud...

    My Finished Ashida

    Here’s my finished Ashida! After giving up on this project last August, I persevered to complete it! Special thanks to CrazyGadget for helping me with VGA & other issues last year, and for encouraging me to finish! The case is 3D printed on an FDM printer and I sanded, filled, and painted it...

    Trying to get into this scene so late, it's probably no surprise that I'm very overwhelmed so I would appreciate if some veterans could help me get started.

    Question buying pcb's for the ashida

    I have these added to the cart. I read the description under the pcb's to try and understand what each one does, but I feel like some of the pieces (ie the replacement heat monitor L chip) are redundant, and I don't really wanna waste money, so is this all I need to make the ashida work? (I have...

    Worklog G-Flip (Wii Portable)

    I want to make something like a Nintendo Switch, but as a Wii Portable. When I say "something like a Nintendo Switch," I'm not referring to the way it looks or feels. I'm referring to the ability to "dock" it for external TV output and support for external GC controllers. I hope for my portable...

    Solved Louii Case Print

    Would Anyone be willing to 3D Print and ship me a Louii Case? I know PCBWay and JLCPCB are favorited but JLCPCB can't print the custom buttons that the Louii has, and PCBWay is a bit too expensive for my budget (around $60 minus shipping). As this is my first portable, I don't need something...

    I recently bought the RVL PMS 2 because I managed to ruin my PMS 1. I'm using the old USB-C PD because I already had it and heard that they should work together.
