I asked this question in another thread I started a while ago and got no answer, so thought it might be useful to have it in it's own thread.
This is the pinout for the Wii's Disc Drive.
This is the pinout of the GameCube's disk drive connector.
Would all I have to is connect the Wii...
Hello!
Thanks to this forum I have been making great progress and I am feeling more confident in completing this seemingly impossible Gamecube Portable project! However, one question that still troubles me is the choice of battery. I am thinking of keeping everything 12V to ensure stability...
Hey guys! I've had this project in mind for quite some time, and finally got around to doing it. A while back, I discovered that the black jewel on top of the 001 model Gamecube is actually two pieces of plastic glued together. After separating them, I had the idea to replace the "Nintendo...
I'm new to this, but I think I understand it in concept. I just need some advice on how to go about doing this. Any and all advice one rewiring the buttons and joysticks is greatly appreciated!
Hi,
So, I have been continuing on my journey to build my portable Gamecube and have been searching for screens to use in my portable. I want something that is pretty big (5-6 inches or so) and of course native 480p. I have been looking around and found this on ebay. Could I use this? Or is...
Hi!
These past couple months I have been designing and building a gamecube portable. There are many things that need to be worked on and an enclosure for my project is no exception. I have access to a 3D Printer and CAD software, but I don't have a 3D scanner to scan the controller to get the...
Hi!
So I've started work on a GCP and wanted to ask a couple of questions!
1. I have a DOL-101 Motherboard, can I directly plug in a 12v battery or do I need to step the voltage down to 11.1v? If so, how do I do that? What's the easiest and safest way, because I'm not that experienced yet :D...
Name is a wip.
Been a lurker for couple of weeks now and i been pretty stoked to make my own portable.
I been pretty obsessed with the switch's tabletop mode, so i wanted to make a tabletop wii portable.
This means no controller on the actual system itself, instead using external gamecube...
Hi! I'm new to portablizing and BitBuilt! I haven't done anything yet but only been studying things and how I would do it. One problem I keep running into is how will I load games onto the Gamecube. One option would be the normal Gamecube disc drive but it's kind of bulky but the easiest one to...
Hey guys :) I recently finished up this tiny Gamecube controller. It was built into a keychain, and is fully functional as a gamecube controller.
Parts Needed:
GC+ board
GameCube controller keychain
2 joysticks (254SA103B50A)
11 hard tact switches
2 squishy tacts
Perfboard
Magnet wire...
Well, I recently got done my Gamecube controller, (as done as I am now), I painted it metallic, I plan to fix the analog stick, and add leds later. I had to repaint it a couple of times, Because someone decided to touch it while it was drying -___- so I lost patience, and finished it up. I...
Is it possible to dremel off one of the two ports for the GameCube cards on the board and keep only one? Want to make the wii board pretty flat while keeping many of the ports
Thanks
I was wondering if anyone had any information on the data that is output over the data line of a Gamecube controller, The packet size seems to be around 85 bytes transmitted at about 13.3 - 13.5 khz. From my testing the 'A' button seems to be the 35th bite of data transmitted out every packet. I...
I wanted to know if anybody would be willing to build a portable GameCube for me. I have a GameCube with cables and 2 controllers that I can send. I don’t know what’s possible but if it can be near pocketsized and without a disc drive (I’d like to have the games loadable through an SD card) that...
As the title implies, I've got no rumble in my cube controller after a trim on a 4 layer board. The rumble worked before the trim and the controller is getting 5 volts so I'm not really sure what's going on here. The trim works fine as well (obviously). I have a wasp fusion installed on a cube...
Here is my entry into this contest. It is a "portable" Gamecube in a 3D printed case with the design heavily influenced, borrowed, and stolen from the GameBoy Advance SP. After many months on hiatus due to issues with a malfunctioning WASP Fusion, it is now complete and back to perfect working...
I'm looking for any gamecube mod chip to buy. If anyone has a spare mod chip, tell me which one and how much your willing to sell it for and i'll get back to you as soon as possible!
okay so I've been researching how to load Gamecube games from an SD card onto a Gamecube so I can get rid of the bulky DVD drive, but wiikey fusions, wasp fusions, and wode jukeboxes are no longer being sold! Also I bought a Xeno GC Mod Chip, but turns out you still need the DVD drive with a...
