This is awesome! I remember being excited to see the potential for this when the Switch 2 launched, and I'm glad to see someone digging into it! It definitely helps that the ribbon connector is the same, and seeing that these are cheap on Ali also really helps! I wonder how difficult it'd be...

All GC+ boards sold by the 4layer store come with the necessary firmware preloaded. Just connect each pad to the Ashida, wire up player 1 data, and you should be good to go! You should probably shield your player 1 data line by twisting it with a ground wire though. The Ashida is a noisy...

I hope the move went smoothly dude! Glad to see you're comfortable enough that running your store again! I'm really eager to see what people do with the 4" panels seeing how there's not a ton of variation in portable screens nowadays.

The 1.0 release of OpeN64 is live and can be found here! The project is now in a state to where I feel comfortable releasing the files for it. I would like to thank everyone involved in this project and the community as a whole for inspiring me to work on it! I'm really hyped to see what all...

It is time... for OpeN64!!! OpeN64 is essentially a 1:1 recreation of the N64 motherboard. The project was designed in KiCAD, and was made to enable and inspire N64 related mods. OpeN64 is based off the 03 revision of the N64 motherboard, but for most AIO portable type mods, motherboard...

Very very interesting... I'm a little surprised the back interior really is as empty as you said. I can see there exist some screw mounts in the handles, but there's really not a whole lot to work with. It definitely looks doable, but certainly not easy. Are there pictures out there of what...

I got my Prusa mk3s+ before the Bambu printers were really prevalent. At the time, your options were to "just get a Prusa" or get an Ender printer that didn't work half the time. It's definitely an outstanding printer and it's served me extremely well! As Stitches said though, it really is...

No, I designed and built my own N64 portable. Glad I was able to help though! What are you building?

I didn't realize there were injection molded Ashida shells like this! Are you able to show what the internals side of it looks like a bit better? I'm interested in getting an idea of how much work it'd be to make the OG Ashida components work with it. Would be cool to make and release a bunch...

I ended up picking a resistor book like this one on amazon to solve this problem when making my portable. It should have most of the resistor values you need. Mine ended up including a few extra pages in the back with common capacitor values. I don't know if this one does, but this second one...

For the record, the sliders inside the earlier white Wii Classic controllers are also the same as the ones used inside the GameCube controller, and the right angled tact switches inside them will also work for the dual Z buttons on the Ashida.

Thanks! I thought so! It's Anycubic's purple PLA. I linked it in the text for this post.

I like having people handle business matters over forum DMs since there's a better record of that in the event something goes wrong. If you want you can add me on Discord. My Discord is "cy02541", feel free to add me.

Agreed! The front came out real nice! Love the analog gates! Love the 2 tone aesthetic! Ahh I see, thanks for explaining! Loving what the bamboo printers are capable of now days! Looks wild!

I believe the original PMS2 has a better battery life indicator than the PMS Lite. I think the 1.8v rail is also missing off the PMS Lite. You technically don't need the 1.8v rail if you don't remove the LDO on the Wii, but some portables require the removal of the LDO for clearance inside...

Such a clean print! The back of the G-Wii is such a blank canvas for custom art like this! I especially love the details in the fan intake! The edges of the shell also look great too, are they part of the filament you're printing with? Or was that detail you added? Either way, this is a...

It's definitely possible on the Wii, but it's extremely difficult to remove and resolder the CPU and GPU properly. Mods involving a custom Wii motherboard wouldn't be very accessible as a result. That said, there do exist functional custom Wii boards, although the success rate of transferring...

I'm glad the documentation is helpful. This isn't really my documentation though. I'm actually not sure who originally documented this, but I will say that the diagram that Elektix posted earlier in this thread was the same diagram I used to make this. I'm not sure how arcade joysticks...

Just a quick little update here. The latest revision of the boards has arrived! Things still seem to check out electronically, so I imagine these probably still work. Looking forward to seeing CrazyGadget assemble one of these bad boys! Thank you again @CrazyGadget for providing scans...

Heck yeah dude! There's really nothing like trimming your first Wii and getting it to boot successfully! This is always a GREAT sign for these projects and it's one of the toughest hurdles to overcome! I don't know if this will help you to improve your micro soldering, but I made a guide for...
