Whoops, thanks for the tag @Matthew, missed this. Everyone who hasn't received their board or a tracking number yet will get one before Monday, all of the remaining boards are being shipped out then. If you don't receive a tracking number by then, please shoot me a PM as there are still a...

Do you have a link to the specific micro SD to USB adapter you used?

The issue with heatguns is they usually only have two settings being low and high. They also usually extrude heat over a much larger radius than hot air stations do, so it's much harder to control where the heat goes. Hot air stations, on the other hand, have a wide range of speeds and...

There are two ways I'd recommend removing them. You could use a hot air station, such as this. Or you could use some desoldering braid to remove the excess solder and it should come out.

Wow, everything looks amazing thus far. Shame you only had a composite LCD lying around, this would be an incredible portable to use the VGA patches in. Keep up the good work man. We've all been seriously impressed by your progress!

We're barreling towards the deadline faster than most people would probably like, and since we're only about a month away I figure I'd give you all an update about prizes! As I stated in the previous post, last year we offered prizes that took far to long to get into the hands of the winners of...

You should be able to now. It takes about an hour after reaching 3 posts for you to be promoted to the "Member" rank as it's an automatic system that queries the post count only so often to reduce on server strain. PM me if you still can't create one and I'll get it sorted for you.

Wow, this is fantastic, especially for a first portable! Great job!

Welcome! I saw what that GC+ went to on Twitter. Super neat! IMO you should still build a portable if you're interested in it. It's a great learning experience and there hasn't been a better time than now to get into the hobby thanks to all of the advancements and helpful tools everyone is making.

The store is (re)launching with a vast new catalog of products in mid-late June.

Yes, you will be able to use it right away as long as you wire it correctly. The homebrew app is for configuring options such as joystick deadzones. If you don't need to adjust them, you won't need to use the app.

VOTE HERE! https://goo.gl/forms/SJYacsqy0nxZpDXG2 Ah, yes. It's that time of the year again when the summer building contest begins! With a recent shift of focus to custom PCBs and microcontrollers, the entries for this year should be incredible feats! For those of you who are unfamiliar with...

for a second I thought this was marshall posting and I was so confused Looks good!

More like DowN64P Kit headed to my house ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) These look great! They'll be a big attraction at the show for sure.

Wow, nice job! I especially like the use of metal screw posts. I've had my share of 3D printed ones fail me in the past. That screen only accepts VGA. He used a YPBPR to VGA adapter board that's mounted in the front half. Speaking of that screen @Redmagnusx, what's the resolution on that bad boy?

Wow, that print turned out very nicely!

The same case can be made for 6-layer Wiis vs. 4-layer Wiis. People still use both for various reasons ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ When you start a project you can make whatever choices you want, regardless of "logic" or whether or not something is correct. It doesn't really bother anyone else here that Madmorda...

Lol please don't make a card board case. Just take the time and money to make a good case, or buy one from someone who already has one. You'll be wasting a lot of time by trying to make a portable with a card board case, even if it's for testing purposes.
