    Worklog Sneak Preview of my second portable

    I'm using AutoCAD 2016. Once I'm outta work I can give accurate dimensions. It is in between the size of a GBA SP, and a 3DS. It's thicker for sure, but not much I can do about that if I intend to include batteries.

    Worklog Sneak Preview of my second portable

    I can't technically call it "GCA SP mkII" since it's a Wii and not a Gamecube, but I think I will anyway since the only thing this Portable Wii will be doing is playing Gamecube games. Mostly Twin Snakes.

    Gameboy cartridge programmer

    I did not realize I had gotten that first response so quickly and swiftly. Thank you both! I'll be reading that review if I can find it, and purchasing one very shortly. P.S. Not too much into Pokémon myself, so I'm not 100% sure what it is. But, this is the link my buddy sent me for that...

    Gameboy cartridge programmer

    Hey, sorry if this is a stupid question. But, can the Gameboy Cartridge Programmer mcgoo pull and drop save files from legit cartridges? Specifically the older Pokémon games? A buddy of mine wants me to back up his saves. And if possible, throw some guy's modded "virus" save onto one of them.

    Question Any idea where I can get a WODE or a WASP?

    Would this work maybe? Does anyone know anything about this or the site it is on? http://www.ps2cover.com/products/Drivekey-Chip-|-Wii-Mod-Chip.html Or this one: http://www.mod-chip.net/wii-key-Fusion-wii-modchip.htm

    Waiting in the wings

    Mine: Wii portable. Slowly working on modifying my GCA SP case files for it. A Raspberry Pi Zero W stuffed into a Dreamcast VMU shell for a very tiny Gameboy/NES. Limited buttons I know, but this will also (in theory) dock into the controller making all of those buttons available, expanding...

    GameCube Advance SP (GCA SP)

    Thanks everyone! And @DeoNaught if you promise you won't do anything scummy with them, send me a PM and I'll send you a zip file of the whole shebang: STL files, board scans, CAD files, various pictures I used, etc. When I'm not being lazy, I want to tweak a few things so I can share everything...

    GameCube Advance SP (GCA SP)

    Small update: A friend of mine playing with it said it was great, but he really wished the C-stick was at least yellow. So I did one better, and 3D designed these. Since the tolerances had to be pretty good, I had Shapeways print them. They arrived this morning. Unfortunately they got dirty very...

    Discussion PowerMii Lite - Interest Thread

    I too would like one. Then maybe I'll finally get the courage to cut up a Wii motherboard and give my GCA SP the batteries and slim/lite upgrade it deserves.

    GameCube Advance SP (GCA SP)

    I had this design in mind the whole time. I was a young lad when I first saw this picture and was foolish enough to think it was going to be a real thing. It was all I ever wanted. I saw it again about two years ago and decided it was time to make my own, but make it look much more like an SP...

    GameCube Advance SP (GCA SP)

    Thank you everyone! Here is the screen I used. No, there is no power saving mode or anything, I just closed it and flipped the on/off switch. And as requested, here are more shots of the inside:

    Just two at the moment, I'll take more when I'm back home.

    GameCube Advance SP (GCA SP)

    Here is my entry into this contest. It is a "portable" Gamecube in a 3D printed case with the design heavily influenced, borrowed, and stolen from the GameBoy Advance SP. After many months on hiatus due to issues with a malfunctioning WASP Fusion, it is now complete and back to perfect working...

    Discussion GC+ Mini contest

    Yeah? That's awesome! Will do. And no, no batteries. If I trim the board I'd definitely have room for them. But at the time of designing this, I wasn't up to the challenge. I have a couple of friends that want me to make them one so I wanted to keep it easy to do so I didn't have to charge them...

    Discussion GC+ Mini contest

    Here is my entry into this contest, the Gamecube Advance SP (GCA-SP) Unfortunately I may never finish it, as it is a Gamecube, and I cannot seem to get the Wasp working again. And by the time I have the extra cash to buy a new one from Aliexpress, they may be gone forever. Never the less, here...

    Question Wasp Fusion Solid Blue Light

    Yeah, I've swapped out the SD cable many times too. Several from my parts bin, a brand new one, even pulled apart my laptop to use it's touchpad cable because I knew it for sure worked. Still nothing. Thanks everyone for your assistance so far. And thanks, I'm pretty proud of it myself. If I can...

    Question Wasp Fusion Solid Blue Light

    Yeah, without any SD card or with the SD slot and cable completely removed it does the same thing. Solid blue light. And yep, I've reseated the cables dozens of times, ordered and tried new ones, and even pulled apart a Wii to steal its drive cable to try it. No dice. I will eventually move...

    Question Wasp Fusion Solid Blue Light

    Hello, first time poster, long time reader. To anyone that reads this, any assistance you can offer will be greatly appreciated. After many many hours designing and testing to perfection my 3D printed case for my "GameCube Advance SP" (GCA SP) it was finally ready to print and put it together...
