I've decided it's finally time for me to build another Wii. I've had the idea to build a Louii based on Monogatari artwork for quite some time now, I even purchased the colors of paint I'd need to paint the design into the back of it. But it wasn't until recently that I decided to get this...

I don't wanna be that guy, but that's a 6 layer Wii. Nice stuff all around though! :D

I'm gonna go ahead and post my gift here now that I've received and opened it. This year my secret santa was @Bubberiffic, and he went WAY harder than he had to! He did such a nice job wrapping them too! We've got a beautifully drawn bit of Nokotan art on a wonderful little card he made...

Wait, I thought these forums were just for us to leech off of other people's work and documentation. We actually have to contribute in some way!? Joking aside, I've sold/given away 3d printing cases for people here and there, my worklogs (so people can learn what I did right and wrong), my...

I'd LOVE to see the other one you made. Just looking at the picture you have as your profile picture it looks AMAZING! It looks a lot like Wesk's Ashida and reminds me of a similar project I did with the N64. Something you might consider when posting finished projects is posting in The...

very good, congratulations on the project! I love how it's styled after a PS Vita shell! It doesn't look too much larger than a Vita either which is a feat on it's own. This being your first major post is really impressive! You've come a long way without any help from the community so you...

Sorry to bump an old dead thread but I wanted to follow up on my HDMI issue. A little while ago, I ended up ordering another Analog2HDMI board from Skent, and with this board he included this card: After taking a close look at the HDMI board I was trying to use in my Starlight G-Wii, I found...

Something I forgot to include in my original post are pics of my RCP wiring, so I thought I'd show that here. I'm honestly not very happy with how it came out and may open the unit up to redo it at some point or just replace it outright with a flex. Anyways, here it is: For anyone who isn't...

Wow! This is really looking good! Something I forgot to mention is that I automatically set the front of the unit to print at 100% infill. This was done to ensure the unit has plenty of structural integrity. I believe it is probably okay to print the back at 15%, but I thought I should...

Thank you all for the kind words! I wasn't originally planning on releasing the files for this build until I streamlined things a bit, made another revision, and cleaned up the geometry. But after giving it a lot of thought, I realized it would be best to release them. The files in this...

Not trying to bump a dead thread or double post here but there are a few parts I've been using recently that I've really liked. I thought it would be good to post them here so they're easier to find for everyone, so here they are: This is a cheaper alternative screen and driver board to the one...

Thanks! I'm a ways off from releasing the files seeing how I have custom PCBs I wanna design for this unit along with geometry I want to clean up. A tutorial isn't out of the question although I think I would likely end up making something like the Gboy guide if I was going go to do anything of...

Such a beautiful and densely packed unit! Your work really is inspirational Wesk! The screen to body ratio is INCREDIBLE and the thickness doesn't lie! Beautiful work as always man!

Thank you! The support and kind words you've all shared has been overwhelming and I feel like I don't deserve it. You've all been so nice so many times when I've had something to share on this project and your words of encouragement have kept me motivated, so for that I thank you guys again...

Thank you both! I just finished doing a battery life test on it, and using an Everdrive the console got 2 hours and 37 minutes of battery life! I'm willing to bet that without the expansion pak and using an original cartridge, I could get 3 hours! To me that's amazing especially for using...

Thank you! :D I weighed the unit and it weighs in at around 1 pound 8 ounces. It is 58mm deep, 283mm long, and 105.7mm tall (although it's several millimeters shorter in the mid section). This is just in case yall were wondering the dimensions. As for battery life, I'm running a test as we...

After >100 hours of 3d modeling, lots of test fitting and assembly work, and many other challenges, my first original portable is finished! The Cyxty Four This portable was inspired by @Wesk 's Ashida Wii portable which took an original GameCube controller and "digitally frankencased" it. In...

The design of this is absolutely beautiful! I already wanna build one! Huge respect to you for doing this! The modeling work that goes into these projects is incredible!

Thanks! I'm a bit disappointed with the model in some areas myself, but there's no reason I can't go back and clean it up eventually when I inevitably build a second one. I 100% will open source the case files eventually. Before I do that though, I'm thinking it would be best to streamline...

Thanks a lot! I've really neglected updating my worklog for a while and this is what happens when you do that lol. I'm a little surprised I got around to giving an update and the next post wasn't just "it's finished now!".
