  1. Question 12v battery power

    I've decided to make a laptop portable Wii without a trim but have a couple of question. First question is which battery supply should I use. I've seen a AA x 8 battery holder on Amazon. SMAKN 8pcs battery AA 12v clip holder. - Amazon choice. Would this power a Wii? If so for how long...
  2. Question How do I power on Wii & sync wii motes without / broken front contacts.

    This is probably a question already covered somewhere before, but for the life of me I couldn't find it. Does anyone know how to power on / off the wii without the usage of the contact points. Same for the syncing. I have a wii board with burnt out buttons and damaged contact points, but I still...

    The Louii

    This is the Louii The goal was to capture the beauty and grace of Louie from the Pikmin series, but unfortunately I completely overshot. Features: Beautiful custom molded Switch buttons and joysticks. If you aren't using Madmorda buttons in a portable in 2019 then you'd better be molding...
  4. Question LCD Display

    I have looked over the forums thoroughly, and I'm pretty sure this is what I need. I just want to make sure, just in case. Thanks in advance.

    The Waker v2 - Louii Worklog

    Over the past 6 or so months, I've put in a lot of time with the original Waker of the Wiind and have been really pleased with how it runs. That being said, it's certainly not perfect, and so since I've got some parts laying around that could use a home I figure I'll revamp the case and tweak...

    Question PortablizeMii FAT error on USB

    When I tried downloading the cheese to my wii it said FAT error and No USB detected. I tried reformatting it and now it just says exFAT with 32k. I used a program that said it would format it to FAT32 but it still says exFAT when my computer reads it.

    I have been looking for many screens that fit the 5v ratio for my portable Wii, but.... The screen I have in mind fits the 480p resolution, but the voltage is always 12v None of them at at least 4inches! Also, I read about using RasberryPi screens. So I won't use them. Or is there a way to...

    Question Question on the interchangeability of disc drives

    Hello. I recently picked up a GameCube compatible black Wii to use with my new CRT. I wanted to play some DVDs on it as I have nothing else to use that has component hookups (using homebrew software, obviously). But, apparently, my Wii has a newer revision of the disc drive that doesn't support...

    Worklog The DVDii

    My plan is to make a Wii portable in a small Toshiba portable DVD player chassis I have. Since the original screen was 480x234, the composite input on it looked like trash, and I had to upgrade. I ordered a new LCD yesterday. It's the same size (9") but is 800x480 instead, and has a VGA input...
