    Discussion Inside an AliExpress Wii Portable

    Does anyone know where I can find the stl files for this?? :rothink: But yeah that thing is quite the beast with plenty of empty space. The way the battery covers are attached makes me feel weird, not that they are planning on anyone taking one apart but something feels weird about how they're...

    So while I wait for a few more shipments I'll go ahead and show off a few more pictures of the progress on this baby. I got the first boards wired up and put in and then fired it up for a test run and the fan started right up! After testing some voltages I was good to continue on! I got...

    At first that's what I thought too, as I know that is a common mistake to make but I was paranoid about it all day so I checked and rechecked multiple different times that the lines were wired correctly. However I have you to thank @Wesk because in wanting to show some pictures so you can see...

    As an update on the screen: I resoldered the hsync and vsync lines and now pixels no longer run off the edge! I think I might have also found the issue with the green line. Upon further inspection it seems that two of the pins on the ribbon connector were bridged together. I guessed that one of...

    Ok so a question for all the portablizing genies out there... I bought the screen from the Ashida BOM. I wired it up for VGA and video came to the screen! However it comes out really purple like this: Edited: So I’ve confirmed the problem is with the green input. Whether the green line is...

    Alternate title: I'm Addicted, Pliise Send Help So after finishing up my last Ashida, I've had a hole in my life; one that can only be filled with making another portable. I considered doing a G-Wii, and probably still will sometime in the future, but there's something amazing about the feel of...

    Question question about the 3v battery

    hmm eso si yo no se.. el MX por seguro se necesita por los emuladores pero no creo que sea necesaria la bateria

    Question question about the 3v battery

    The battery for the MX chip only deals with real time clock, so unless you're looking to play games that utilize the RTC (basically, Animal Crossing) then don't worry about it. If you are worried about it, chuck it in there as it shouldn't be that big of a deal to wire up and is so small you'd...

    As @Wesk said, there really isn't anything that needs trimming except the Z buttons- I did sand the button wells a little bit just to make sure they didn't stick but mostly because when I 3D printed the case I didn't know what I was doing so certain buttons were rather snug and probably would...

    Picture time! the pictures were taken in different lighting, which is why the coloring is different picture to picture So here's the finished product - looking good! Testing the bluetooth module and it works! It boots into games as expected and the GC+ 2.0 is working great! Thanks again...

    So I’ve looked into it a little more and strangely I don’t have the power tab in the settings on RVLoader, and I’m guessing that is where those options would appear. Not sure if it’s a glitch but it has RVLoader 1.4 and I’m using a pms2

    More pictures to come soon! For the most part it’s all finished..just putting the finishing touchesbut I had a few questions in regard to RVLoader. Is there a way to display battery percentage at all? Also, as of right now mine will only turn on as if I had a button wired, so I flip the switch...

    Question Building a wii portable

    Does your multimeter have a continuity function? Often they will have a function where they beep or otherwise display if what you are probing has a good connection. If your multimeter has this ability it is a good practice to make sure that after you have soldered a wire that there is...

    As a question since I’m using that driver board.. how exactly do you wire it for power? 3.3v soldered into the spot shown and where does ground go? Also do you have to remove that component? The build is looking sick tho can’t wait to see the beauty shots of the finished product.

    Simply put I’m a noob.. Unfortunately I’d never 3D printed anything before. The screen mount and trigger brackets came out perfectly when I realized how to fix it but unfortunately the case was the guinea pig
