Are you charging the batteries with your charger hooked up to b1? You should be using P+/P- as the charging input and power output pads. The only thing that should be hooked up to any of the B+/B1/B- pads should be batteries. Also, have you put shielded wire? If not, you can take two strands...

You would probably want to replace that board with a custom flex pcb, those are much thinner and would give you the best chance of fitting everything inside the DMG. Then, depending on how you want to get the info of the extra buttons to the gameboy to then be transmitted, you would either need...

Sure, can't wait to see your project!

Try disconnecting everything from the pms and test voltages to see if it is working properly, then slowly connect everything back to it until it stops working

I'll start with the explody part first... It's completely fine to stack cells as long as they are combine into a pack before being used. All brand new cells are perfectly fine, just don't combine used ones into new packs. This is because the different capacities of the cells will cause them to...

1. The vias are much easier to solder to if you use 36ga or 38ga enameled magnet wire 2. Yes! Some of the software patches are for other hardware you trim off 3/4. I can't say for the pms 2 as I haven't used it yet, but I know the pms 1 does not work without a battery, and takes voltages as low...

Since I can't see anything visually wrong, I would disconnect all voltage lines, and reconnect one component at a time (ie start with just the wii and check voltages, then wire up something else until you find where the problem is). You may also be pulling too much current through one...

Couple things I see, you don't appear to have ground wired in the second picture, you need ground connected between the wii and pms. Second, the wires you put in the last picture you should remove, those are length sensitive, and the traces (visually) look like they're still fine. If they...

That looks awesome! I love how similar you were able to get the case to the original Famicom

You need a separate amplifier for the headphones. While not optimal, you can just add another amp between the wii and potentiometer and it should work

I can say that gash isn't the cause. Try cleaning off the board with isopropyl alcohol and a toothbrush, it looks like there's some stray solder blobs and Flux around...

Have you tried holding reset while turning the system on? That should bring up the priiloader menu.

That is another CPU, actually. Here's some more info if you're curious :) https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Hardware/Starlet

Die shots? Here you are :P I would strongly suggest against delidding the chips. Unlike with desktop processors and graphics chips, you will, at best, gain nothing. The steps outlined in the G-Boy manual and the Console Modding 101 sections should get you a good enough start. You might also...

This is already known, I believe there are actually some patched RVL-CPU-01 Wiis as well, but the CPU-10s being the first patch would make a lot of sense.

This is awesome! How long does the battery last?

What is the voltage of the batteries? They may just be dead. I don't think it lets you cycle through the modes when it is dying

https://store.bitbuilt.net/an-update-on-the-bitbuilt-store/ There is no news besides this as of yet.

That cleaned up wiring looks really nice! Good job!

Did you ever end up doing those tests? If you find it does need to be limited it may be better to try and put a regulator so you don't have to lose out on capacity
