hi all,
I'm specifically wanting to create a small form-factor wii like the wii micros done here before. The purpose is to run only Super Smash Bros. Melee (Slippi) for tournaments. Eventually i might create a comprehensive guide and or videos to help others to do the same. Wiis are a pain to...
first thanks to all who contribute and gave the bases to be able to make this type of project; I decided to do this worklog based on all the comments of the BuitBuild mentors, but in my country I am not able to find all the bitstore accessories, or they are very expensive for me, so I...
I started work on my first portable a few weeks ago and one dead board later I finally have a setup that boots to portabilize-me post-trim.
Currently using 4x pth08080wad regulators to power the system and I've left the AV socket on for now to help with testing. I do have an RVL PMS coming so I...
Hello! I've been looking for a console modder to comission for a custom console.
The vague concept: Basically a trimmed Wii + trimmed N64.
Why: The Wii can run most older consoles well with emulation, however the N64 emulation is still struggling. Considering that me and my friends still play...
Heyo,
I was wonder what the deal is with Bluetooth relocation, as I would like to play Wii games on my first portable.
But the Bluetooth relocation seems redundant if you could hypothetically insert a USB Bluetooth adapter and connect a Wii remote? Same goes for wifi...
The only reason I don't...
Hey folks! I've spent a lot of time reading all of the guides/material/videos and I think I'm ready to get started! My current BOM is looking something like:
Buy from BB: Audio Amp, PMS, Dual Tacts, GC+
Buy From other: 5" Screen, Speakers, Headphone Jack, Power Jack, Fan, Heatsink, Switch...
So, a while ago I've decided to make a portable wii, I'm naming it the Portiblii! and I need help with its internals. I'm going to order some 18650 3-6Ah batteries wired in 4P (with internal protection because safety first), a 5" AV display, boost converter and buck converters for the power...
Hi, I'm going to try to design my case before my parts come in but I can't find the dimensions of a trimmed (or untrimmed for that matter) Wii motherboard. Please help.
I know I've asked quite a bit of questions however, I was wondering about how much power a portable Wii would consume with a 5 inch (diagonally) screen with everything else usually in a portable like a Wii and fan etc.
I have desoldered U9 (after my attempts at desoldering U10 were unsuccessful), but one of the legs broke off (on the side with two legs). Is it worth trying to solder to the point where the leg broke off from, or should I move on to taking the U10 off another Wii motherboard?
Basically - Is a...
There are two pads across from each other (for resistors) with the label R2R9 - the rest of the pads are labeled R1-R16 (except R2 and R9). My question is: do I solder both R2 and R9 to those pads? What does it mean?
Soon, from now to summer, I plan to build my Wii Portable. It will have a 4.3" av Screen, video out through HDMI (for compatibility), GameCube buttons/ L and R, 3ds sliders, Sterio speakers and 3.5mm jack (using UAmp), 4 GameCube controller inputs, USB C charging, USB A game data and more...
I feel like it's about time I start a worklog, I've been putting it off for a bit.
I've gotten almost all of the parts I need, i'm just missing the case and audio amp (sort of).
I recently trimmed my Wii and relocated bluetooth/A10 (i'll attach photos)
Theres a few things i'm unsure of,
I...
I've already made my first dumb mistake on my road to making a portable. When I try to open up a channel from the Wii menu it will boot and work for maybe minute, then crashes and gives me this error message:
"An error has occurred. Press the Eject Button, remove the Game Disc, and turn the...
Hi,
I am currently reverse engineering the Wii's stock case to create a "Wii Slim".
The project mainly consists of modifiable OpenSCAD files, so that i can easily change the height of the entire case and 3D-print a smaller one that better uses the space freed up by removing broken disk drives...
Now I'm sure this is a very dumb question, but where do I solder to relocate motherboard items?
I should probably explain what I'm talking about. I'm trying to trim down a Wii motherboard that I ripped (Carefully took out) out of a Wii, so I've read "The Definitive Wii Trimming Guide" about ten...
So I've just begun building a portable Wii, nothing fancy though. Here are some of the parts/features (I tried to reuse components where I could):
1 port charge and play (Red Board + 2s1p 18650 Cells)
4-layer (RVL-101) Wii board
4.3" LCD monitor
PTH08080 voltage regulators
GC+ based...
Hello everybody
I apologize for my bad English
This is my first project of a portable wii.
I was undecided whether to call it wiiasy or simplywii, in the end I chose wiiasy.
Wiiasy because it is a project born to be as simple and easy as possible.
Starting from the design of the case which is...
Hey! So I checked out the wii trimming guide and have a general idea of how to make a wii portable (looked at a work log) but some forums about the specifics of certain parts of the process (mainly wiring and where everything connects to) would be useful as I have very little electronic...
The question is very delicate, the portable wii that I see on this page have 4 batteries and recommend a voltage of 14.4v for the battery to last longer, but that is the voltage of the 4 discharged, the charged voltage is 16.8 wii supports that voltage ?
