Awesome work, Wesk. This looks like its going to be the portable we have all dreamed of for years. Really excited we have been able to contribute to and help improve such an incredible project.

Moved to Wii modding. Only took 2 tries and help from an administrator. The thread Stitches posted is the best place to start for revision hunting. Here's my thread of documentation specifically about the correlation between revisions and serial numbers. It's also stickied at the top of this...

An injection mold for a device like the New 3DS like that would cost tens of thousands of dollars, and thats assuming you have CAD files ready to go. Molds these are not the kind of things one can really have done for a funsies hobby project. If you don't have stupid amounts of money laying...

This looks like an alternate timeline where we figured out how to trim the Wii back in 2011. I don't know when you started this project, but it had to be many years ago based on the parts used. The scene has come a long way since you started this project, and there have been many advancements...

On the 30, the CPU (smaller, bottom chip) has the smaller substrate chip with the smaller package: Broadway-1. The die of the broadway was shrunk prior to this (even as early as some 01 boards IIRC) without changing the package. To my knowledge, power consumption between 01 boards with 65nm and...

Unfortunately, that's the only solution right now until a someone patches it out. Gnd, 3.3, and 4 data wires should be all you need. Follow the instructions in the guide for MX relocation, and you should have no problem pulling it off. Make sure to include that chunk of PCB unless you plan to...

Delidding for thermal improvements is about removing the bottleneck in dissipating the heat from the die of the chips. With 5-8 watts spread across 2 chips, thermal dissipation from the die of the chips themselves has never really been a bottleneck: it's mostly getting the heat off the heatsink...

Yes, the existence of this chip is known. It seems to appear interchangeably with the Hollywood-1 on Wii Mini boards. I haven't performed power consumption tests myself, but another user who tested it told me the power consumption delta was not significant. If you can acquire a Wii Mini with a...

Another excellent project! Glad to see you here on the forums!

Is 2 independent video outputs (one for each screen) achievable or is only a single unified video output?

Looks like access is restricted. You may wanna tweak the settings

Needed a break from video editing and started the skeleton of a compendium using an incomplete inner voltage layer. One of the inner layers is 100% just a solid 5v plane. The other inner layer... I haven't gotten to yet, but my presumption is that its going to be just a solid GND plane. I have...

A while back, I acquired a completely toasted Virtual Boy motherboard. I finally got around to blasting the components off of it, sanding, and scanning. I have scanned the surface layers, but not the internals. I may get to that one day... -I'm like 90% sure there is only one revision of the...

If you haven't installed software to patch out BT/Wifi, you should not trim the board. Instead, blast the regulators off the board with hot air, as mentioned in the previous post. However, your board will still not boot under these conditions. The stock Wii motherboard has 2 3.3v voltage...

Alrightie. Politely answering your question didn't work, so I guess it's time to take a more blunt approach... If you aren't going to listen to our advice, why bother asking? You say it "works perfectly" but it clearly doesn't or you wouldn't be having these problems. Your solder connections...

3.3v and GND can be obtained from wherever it is convenient, such as from your regulators themselves. The wires you are using are far too thick for what you are trying to accomplish. I recommend using thinner wire. You also shouldn't have to hot glue your wires down like that. It doesn't help...
