    Worklog First Wii Portable (unnamed so far)

    Don't use the uninsulated magnet wire, go ahead and order some insulated stuff. You can get a spool that will last you until the sun blows up from eBay for less than $10. And sorry the U9 part wasn't clear, the bridging pads part was meant for the 2 pads where you removed U9 from. You don't...

    Worklog First Wii Portable (unnamed so far)

    A couple things: First, you need to get some magnet wire for soldering to vias. Thick wire like that does not make a good connection, and will likely short out against other vias. Also, you've shorted the input and output pins of U10 together. It's ok if the three pins on the left are all...

    Model [OLD DO NOT USE THESE] Louii CAD Files

    Notes: The screen in the BOM is very easy to modify to run off of 3.3v. Simply remove all the components missing in this picture, and reconnect 3.3v to any of the points indicated in red. There is one last large conductor needed for the screen to function properly, but there is a convenient...

    The Louii

    Z button is held in place by the screen holder, yeah. It's not a perfect design as it only activates when you push on the outer half of the trigger, but the outer half is where you always push anyways just because of how you have to hold the portable. That little purple board is just for the...

    Question BBvideo?

    BBVideo was a project meant to get 480p video in a more easily usable form for portable applications, as yPbPr does not work with very many screens. But then Aurelio released his Wii VGA patches, so now we can get really nice 480p video out of our Wiis without having to buy any extra hardware...

    Question Reviving old board

    You can always solder a wire to 3.3v and then touch it to the sync pad on the module. Just be careful that you don't accidentally hit anything else with the wire...

    The Louii

    This is the Louii The goal was to capture the beauty and grace of Louie from the Pikmin series, but unfortunately I completely overshot. Features: Beautiful custom molded Switch buttons and joysticks. If you aren't using Madmorda buttons in a portable in 2019 then you'd better be molding...

    In that case then yes, that would be all you need from the store.

    You'll need a good deal more than just this and a GC+ for a portable, but yes this acts as a replacement for the PTHs and more. This is another form of custom regulators.

    Question Is this battery scheme well structured?

    The DC port of all life sounds like a cult I'd like to join. I have no clue what that means.

    Why do you have those resistors there? Everything else looks ok

    The Waker v2 - Louii Worklog

    Casework is complete! I'm not completely satisfied with how the art on the back turned out, but it'll have to be good enough. The art on the back is my own design and idea though, so I am pretty proud of that. Also, running a google search for "Pikmin Louie art" sounds like a life-changing...

    Question Could I use a USB-C connexion to access the drive inside a wii portable

    Micro-USB is definitely simpler for an application like this. One thing to note about my guide though is that the multiplexor I used for switching the data lines did have some issues down the road. I'd strongly recommend you use an IC meant for switching USB data lines, as those will be a lot...
