Stitches is right! They're local decoupling capacitors for the CPU. They are mandatory, and will be rendered useless if relocated.

Yes, I keep the quantities in both posts up-to-date! I'll DM you to coordinate the transaction. Sorry, the smallest quantity I can sell is 100pcs. Otherwise all my spare time will be consumed by counting out tact switches. Feel free to DM me here on the forums if you decide you want a 100pc bag.

For the record, the 3.5" 640x480 IPS screen is indeed being sold with a different AV/VGA driver board now, called PCB800855. eBay, AliExpress links But like CrazyGadget said, the G-Boy is only designed to work with 3.5" sized driver boards. While you could potentially trim that driver board...

Take a look at the full schematic I posted earlier-- it answers all of your questions. C1 is 10uF and connected to pin 40 of the AVE.

The board was designed in EAGLE, so there's no KiCAD file for me to provide. You have to import the design into KiCAD if you want to open it in that tool. File > Import Non-KiCAD Project > EAGLE Project

Those values are correct, but that's an outdated PCB revision. The latest one is available here, on my GitHub. It omits the unnecessary 4.7uF cap and makes all decoupling caps 100nF. You can open it in EAGLE or import it into KiCAD. You can also view the component values by opening the iBOM...

Well, I got home from work today and found a massive box on my front porch. I immediately recognized @That_Random_Guy's name from all the group buy orders and knew I was in something good. Inside I found a very nice handwritten note plus instructions on opening the packages in the labeled...

Bumping for visibility! I still have 3000 squishy tacts and 550 dual-action tacts in stock. What doesn't sell between now and April will be brought to MGC 2024.

Omega47's OmegaFlex is open source and relocates the NAND. You could edit his design to create a standalone NAND flex, or order it as-is and trim it.

You can desolder the preamp and bridge its audio inputs and outputs. The only drawback is that the Wii will output much quieter audio, so you'll need to crank up the volume on your TV or receiver. Check out Jeff's Wii Micro thread for pics of such a preamp bypass.

EDIT: NOW AVAILABLE ON FLASHFI.RE I am selling light blue squishy tact switches (Alps SKEYAJA010) and dual-action tacts (Zhejiang Yibao TMHF07) at cost. No markups, no scalping, no BS! You pay the same wholesale price per switch as I did, plus shipping! :awesome: Alps SKEYAJA010 Price per...

Super clean build, Curtis! The transparent blue looks awesome. The Lontium LT6711 can convert an HDMI source to USB-C DisplayPort alt mode. You can buy this relatively compact eval board for it. A Switch-style dock with video out and controller ports is doable, but way more work, especially if...

The prodigal son returns! And with more custom PCBs than ever before. Looks awesome, Nold! USB64 seems like the N64+ we've always wanted. So are you planning to transplant the components from the Teensy 4.1 onto this board?

Wonderful, you read my mind! I'll DM you.

I got burned out and took a month off Wii U stuff. But I'm back with big news! Presenting... the LOLWUT trim! WUT stands for Wii U Trim. And it's also only one letter off from "WUP" which is Nintendo's designator for Wii U motherboards. Here it is compared to a stock WUP-50. The board area...

I thought the exact same thing. They're eerily similar! o.O A "Wii U Mini" using a modest trim like this would be pretty cool. You could keep the original 1v/1.15v regs and front panel, and just shorten the main part of the case. A ton of work for something that's not functionally any...

I took last week off to work on a different project, but I'm back in the Wii U fray now. Long update incoming! I cut out the SMC and RTC from a WUP-01 motherboard. I was so excited, I forgot to take microscope photos of the bare daughterboard! But here are some pics of the relocation...

Wow, super clean wiring and outline. Nice work!

Chill weekend, but I still got some Wii U work done! I tested a new cooling setup using this fan and a 45x45x10mm heatsink. It works well and is more than enough cooling for the WUP-50. At 3.3V the fan is pretty quiet, but the mobo gets a tad warm. At 5V the fan is loud but things stay much...

The pin that broke off is required, unfortunately. You can buy a replacement from Mouser. The part number is BD45292G. Link
