Making progress on my case today, but I'm glad to say I ordered the last of what I need for this project. Well I'll buy the cooling kit and tacts from the store and after that I'll have everything I need The last thing I'm sure I'll be getting in the mail will be the pcb for the batteries. I...

I ordered a pam8803 amp a while back and it came in today! Gonna work on the case later and see if I can get that done so I can clear coat it. I also have my magent wires hot glued so I dont have to worry about them being ripped off by something or someone..but i used very little so it wont be...

So after all of the troubleshooting that I did over the past week (thanks to the bit built staff over on discord) I finally got my problem with the usb port fixed! Tonight I'll be working on my case more so I can hopefully start assembling the buttons on the front half, then I can order a...

so I had a small chat with wesk over on discord, told him two of my usbs stopped working after I hooked it up to the port to test. Heres a couple pics of my setup, I cant get a solid reading on the output line, my multimeter goes wild and constantly goes within 5-8v Tomorrow I'll be sure to...

Gman told me on discord that I shouldn't worry about the video port and capacitors, so I'll be sanding my board and checking u10 I still dont have the board as small as I need it for the case anyway. EDIT: talked to a few people on discord today, came to the conclusion that my usb is dead. About...

Ok I did get 75.5 ohms on the composite line, i never technically checked before hand, but I guess I get continuity on every capacitor except for one to ground. And I haven't done anything to my board except rewire the usb. I'll be on discord in like an hour or two.

So everything went well with my wii today, I did the u10 relocation, trimmed my board and tested the powermii lite board, it all worked, but after I tried wiring usb to it and that's when things got bad.. so now I disconnected my av and noticed that video was shorted to ground. Any advice on...

So I took the wii apart this morning and verified that it runs without wifi. Taking this attempt slower than the last time, looks like the vias on the back are exposed, I think I'm not gonna order the hot air gun anymore instead just be careful with the relocation. I should have some results to...

Have that noted down, I was thinking of just lifting the input leg and hot gluing it in place, but I might just stick to cutting

This might be overkill, but for melee tournaments I felt like it would be cool to make a single console hold two wiis so you could make it a little more convenient for transportation and setting up.

I ended up getting the wii today, which was before schedule so I'll take today to mod it and maybe tonight I can take it apart. I didn't know an untrimmed wii would boot with the u10 relocation done otherwise I would have done that on my previous board lol. My fingers are crossed that this board...

So I ordered a second wii, but I'm also getting one from cheese (we had a dm sesh). I'm also getting a hot air gun to see if I can do a better job with the u10 relocation. So from what I understand, you can do the u10 relocation before you trim the board and it would still boot fine? I'll have...

That things a beast My only question Is normally I've seen you use a larger copper plate for the sheetsink, so how come this ones smaller?

You're gonna need some step down regulators before you go trimming your motherboard. What kind of tools do you have?

That's clean, do you think you could make the controller ports include the little number engraves?

so I've been talking to jeff on the discord chat, I've come to the conclusion that u10 is my problem with my board booting up, the chips get hot, the trim at this point seems reasonable, I've done enough sanding with 1000 grit paper and i get the voltages that i need with the powermii lite board...

So you can't use a 6 layered board for this build? I was preparing myself to try out another board attempt, but only have a 6 layer board.

I'm assuming you want 4 layer boards? I can check out the guide to see what they are I hadn't had the chance to check that out yet

I found a couple wiis at my local goodwill. Cables were included so I bought them hoping I could sell or trade them here. They're in good condition. I might use one to try a second attempt at modding a wii if no ones Interested. I was selling them for 20 dollars plus shipping.

Do you think the guy who holds the current n64p record can be broken with this trim
