I don't remember there being a specific one, but the pinouts for the driver board's connectors are labelled on the board itself in white silkscreen. You just have to match those labels to the Wii's AV pinout diagrams, perform the low voltage modification in accordance with the general low...

RVLoader doesn't work properly on SD cards; it requires USB flash storage. What kind of Chinese unit does he have?

All power supplies are marked RVL-002. RVL-001 is the Wii itself (pre-Family Edition), and RVL-003 is the Wiimote (pre-Motion Plus). I think the icon in the bottom left denotes who made the capacitors used in the power supply. The M icon is Mitsumi Electric, and Nichicon is a company that only...

I love that game! This is an excellent idea

That article is 10/10

That's quite typical for Wii games, as Crash said they're more sensitive. USB hard drives are a bit slow on the draw when it comes to providing requested files, there's a latency that can wig out the Wii. Other loaders have some extra optical drive emulation wizardry built in for maximum...

I can confirm Wii Sports is not great on a portable screen. Although watching someone else try to play tennis is very amusing

Might still be a useful resource for repairs

Dammit I'm going to have to write another apology aren't I.....................

Without modded boot1 or access to one of Nintendo's technician programmers, I'm not aware of any means to save a Wii that is unable to start due to file corruption. You could probe the voltage lines with a multimeter to make sure it isn't a bypassable hardware fault, but that's about all I can...

This thoroughly tickles my tism

Any material will do, it's more a question of the tolerances of the printer. If you want something that looks seamless, MSLA resin or SLS nylon would be the way to go (but more expensive than FDM)

Put me down for 4 of them. Ain't got no Wavebirds yet, but no time like the present!

Well shit

Man my figures are hella outdated...................

SLS Nylon is generally very good, many people have had their shells printed in nylon and they came out great. It's kinda like a dry Gamecube controller texture. You can indeed print the internal parts in cheaper PLA. They should fit fine, but you may need to adjust the scaling a bit

My guess would be because most off the shelf li-ion charge/discharge protection chips have their maximum discharge voltage set to 3.2v, which is just below 3.3v. Safely cycling a li-ion cell down to 2.5v requires some additional handling, and not all cells support going down to 2.5v. Some will...

Yeah they are not rechargeable. They're kinda the li-ion's equivalent of alkaline cells. Better shelf life, more energy density, but their chemistry means single use only. If you try to charge one it will just detonate.

Cause problems? M8 it'll prevent problems. OMEGA trims are notoriously difficult to get and keep functional. OMGWTF all the way for first timers. As for buying a trim, you absolutely can just buy one if you want. They're usually fine and dandy, but if there is a pre-existing problem with the...
