Hey all, I'm attempting to build a GC portable! I'm pretty new to this but it's certainly been a learning process. My goal for this project is to build a portable that has 4 external ports and AV out so I can use it on my own, or use it as a console for friends. I'm going with an untrimmed rev C board just to make things as easy as possible for a beginner like myself. You may be thinking, why not a wii portable? Well the answer to that question is that I got my hands on a WASP + MEGAdrive v5, I want to have minimal trimming/relocating, and I got this GC for dirt cheap. Also got a hold of the GC+ board to make adding the internal controller a bit easier.
So far I've removed the connectors from the board and soldered on a memory card. I just picked up an SD socket which I'm going to solder to memory card slot B to flash Swiss onto the WASP when it arrives.
I'll keep this thread updated with my progress and ask questions when they come up! Nice to be part of this community!
