I really love the Noldendo Miicro project made by Nold : Noldendo Miicro Release/Guide

And I thought it would be a good idea to make a "pro" or "deluxe" version, which would improve/change a few things.
The goal is also not to complicate the project too much, there will only be a need for two or three more components.

The mains advantages are :
- Better video quality
- can be use with any 5V or PD charger instead of the big Wii power supply, nice if you don't have one.
- you can better see if the Wii is on with the illuminated button
- you can connect headphones to the audio jack or hi-fi speakers

Changes :
- Added VGA connector
- added 3.5mm audio jack connector
- change PWR ON btn
- added USB-C PD module
- custom design

Components list :

Voltage Regulator PTH08080 : https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_9uznsj

RVL PSU :
TLV62130 : https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_ATyjaS
IHLP1212BZER2R2M11 : https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_AUOdBG

Features/Guide :

- The VGA connector improve a lot the video quality, to solder it you require to :
1 - enable the VGA in RVloader
2 - Connect some wires between the connector and the Wii Motherboard

H-Sync in grey, V-Sync in Purple

You also need to connect these two wire to the AVE chip, like the picture.

- I made a support for the RVL PSU, I put an angle like that it's much easier to solder the wires.
And some holes for better heat dissipation :

- Added USB-C PD module
- Added 3.5 mm audio Jack
- Added Power Button
- Added Sensor bar connector mount : require to be disassembled of the original video out connector and as the plug is upside down, do not forget to connect the polarity correctly.

Looking fantastic! Did you make edits to the STL's or is there a fusion 360/solidworks file out there for the noldendo project? I was going to try and make some tweaks but I know that trying to edit stls can be a pain in fusion 360

I edited the stl files in fusion 360, not so hard to edit
