I am building an Ashida portable and I don't know what tools and extra parts not listed on 4 layer tech to buy. Please recommend things to remove soldering as well as a soldering iron and other important tools/pieces.
I know my ideas are all bad, but i think this one might be pretty good.
what is the one fatal flaw with current portables? No sensor bar makes it impossible to do certain tasks such as selecting things from a menu, for the lack a cursor. This is where This product comes in.
This allows you to...
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
Looking to buy samsung flash drive or Kingston micro as adapter, been striking out on getting reloaded installed with everything Else I tried. Also willing to consider KNOWN working usb drives
I had an issue with the board that I'm currently preparing to trim where I pressed a bit too hard on the tactile button and ended up thumb-punching the damn thing straight off, effectively preventing myself from hardware resetting straight into priiloader.
Context: I don't want to make a...
I’m starting my first wii portable (The Ashida) and I’ve looked through the guide a bit on trimming the wii motherboard. (which arrives in a few days) Any tips for beginners or any specific videos in the electronics 101 collection that would be useful. Since I’m a total newbie when it comes to...
I got inspired by the wiis “art” on the balance board portable by gingerofoz
before you yell at me, yes the consoles are both irreparably damaged and do not boot. And yes, i have too much money.
Hello!
I'm trying to fix a Wii that has a weird video problem. I watched the following video by MattKC and I believe I have the exact same problem. The screen is super dark, but lightens a little bit over time. Sometimes it has other slightly weird visual errors, but that's the main one...
So a while back i started on a wii portable with the ultimate goal of it being the full wii experience. The same classic Home Screen that i loved when i was young and all the other aspects. I wanted to load from usb loader gx as it has the same interface we all know. Many problems and 3 wii...
Basically this is the design i'm going to. The part that really made me think if i should use emulated or not are the controllers, i want them to be like the nintendo switches. That means you could deattach them and I was also thinking of trying to make a dock, just in case i want to play on a...
It is a portable wii that looks (a bit) like a book from he outside but inside it is your typical folding wii portable. Here is a pic.
should i build this (im a beginner to the modding community) or should i start with an ashida or a simpler one like that?
-An overview-
I've taken inspiration from multiple users, a lot of them have shown just how small/thin handhelds can get. After flipping back in forth about what I wanted I've decided to be greedy (hence the name) and combine multiple consoles in one handheld. A raspberry pi cm4 will take care...
Hey all, I'm trying to figure out why my bluetooth relocation suddenly decided not to work, without the module connected, the trace which should be connected to pin 10 reads short to ground. I've tried to cut the trace before it arrives at the edge of the board but that didn't fix it. Visibly...
GIBCON stands for “gee I basically cut off nothing” and it exists for one reason: to revolutionise portable wii consoles. It retains all of the parts from the OMGWTF trim as well as a few extras. For example: the USB port, sensor bar, bluetooth mudule, disk drive connectors ( in case your wii...
For the last few weeks, I've gotten really interested in making a Portable Wii, and after a bit of time, I have accumulated to what I think is all of the parts and tools that I would need for a Portable Wii, including the boards from 4LayerTech and the Custom PCBs.
I have decided to go for a...
HI, I managed to get the RTC Chip working with it's little battery but the time isn't correct on the Wii.
I didn't find any way to change the time while being in RVLoader. I know we can do it in the Wii System but I have no idea why, I'm getting a black screen when booting to the Wii main menu...
Hey BitBuilt, finally getting around to posting this lol.
About a year ago I turned my original Wii into a portable by removing the disk drive, putting a GC controller into where the disk drive used to be, attached a monitor, and some battery packs on the back. Big and clunky, I know, but I was...
I'm a huge fan of electronic projects and I really would like to do my own portable Wii. I own a 3D printer and have some skill in 3D modeling, printing, soldering, PCB conception...
I've started to search for more information about how the motheboard trimming works, what components would I...
I’m going to mod my home wii with RVLoader for easier access of games, but I love the default vanilla wii menu and I want to still access it both on my home wii and my portables. How can I do this?
Ok so here is the first gwii portable in a while. I’ve already done quite a bit but better late than never. I have the pms pd led and fan all wired up with the wii ready to drop in. Rn I’m wiring up the batteries. Ps the name is to be come up with but something to do with Zelda because of the...
