I have a portable gamecube project that I started awhile back and never got around to finishing. At this point I could use the rent money more and just don't have the time to complete it :lol:. It would be a great start for anyone looking to finish the project or just use it for parts. It...

Hello all, I put it off for a long time but I've finally bought myself a Wii U.. So of course the next step is to portablize it into what I'm calling the Wii Z. I've been thinking about the best way to go about this, and I've decided to make a large tablet style console which can be easily...

I need this power connector from a Wii U AC adapter. I can't justify buying a new AC adapter just to salvage the connector. Maybe someone has a broken one they could chop the end off of? Basically I'd just pay shipping costs plus a few bucks for your trouble.

Awhile ago I did a DS mod, converting a broken system into a unit that only plays GBA games. I'm selling it for $30 + Free Shipping. Paypal or Google Wallet preferred. US buyers only. Check out the video, and seriously excuse my voice, it was quiet and terrible back then...

Hey guys, I'm currently building my second GCP and I'm using a component chip with the VGA mod, and a 5" Dalian Good Display. I've been having issues recently with some sort of video interference. I've had interference before, but this is different. They are vertical lines that look like...

I'm looking for some OFFICIAL gamecube controllers in good cosmetic condition. I really only need the plastic buttons to be in good shape, the rest I couldn't care less for, even if the controller is entirely broken. Sure I could buy new gamecube controllers, but that's expensive and a huge...

Original Worklog --> viewtopic.php?f=36&t=12125 Ok, so this GCP has been finished for awhile, but not officially announced. Also I've still been making improvements and recently added new features, so today I can now say it is ENTIRELY, OFFICIALLY AND COMPLETELY FINISHED. First a little...

Anyone have experience buying these batteries off ebay? They're pretty common to find on the site. http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-DC-12V-Port ... 48501b1b97 I've pretty much completed my first GCP, but I want to make an external battery pack to go with it. Now I know these batteries are cheap and...

Doing some controller modding and I'm running into some issues regarding the L and R buttons. I may or may not end up having support for the analog POT function, and for now I am wanting to test it with just the button click, meaning no analog whatsoever. Problem is, some games require the POT...

Wanting to build a portable gamecube but are a complete noob? Do you feel confused by all the bits and pieces of information scattered out there? If you want some general info on where to get started with portable modding, and an approach to modding with and overview of EVERYTHING, you're...

Recently the TI regs used for zenloc's custom regulator have not been available on TI's website as free samples. Instead, you'd end up having to pay around $30 to buy them on digikey or mouser. So I've been looking for a cheaper alternate. Check out these adjustable regs on dealextreme...

I bought an "as is" gamecube off ebay, which was described as not reading discs. I figured it was just a disc drive issue, so since I'm using a wiikey fusion, that wont matter. I tested the gamecube with a working disc drive (with xeno gc) but there still seems to be an issue. When powering on...

I'm just curious about the matter. I've searched all over Google but haven't found any useful guides. I know it's possible because Ashen was selling one here viewtopic.php?f=5&t=6383 I just got a free Wii, so I'm considering adding a trimmed disc drive to my portable gamecube if it's not too...

I'm building a GCP, and today my 6th gamecube motherboard died on me. I'm gonna get some more and was considering buying a lot of "as is" gamecubes on ebay. Some gamecubes are described as having trouble with reading discs, while others wont power on. I'm fairly certain that if a gamecube wont...

I'm considering using these batteries for my GCP http://www.all-battery.com/2Pack11.1V22 ... 39524.aspx. Basically I want to make sure they'll work and supply enough amperage. I'm trying to work out exactly which parts I'm buying and how to connect it all. I'm considering either this charger...

EDIT - Dropping $5 off the price I had this old broken DS with no top screen. So I modified it into a GBA-only machine. I call it the S Lite (courtesy of vskid3, grossaffe, and SS for name contributions), and it's the only console mod I've ever finished. Sure it's not the greatest looking, or...

Edit - Dropped the price by $5 Trying to sell some things recently so I can buy parts and finally finish my portable gamecube. I have a PS1 screen that I've trimmed on the top and right side and also applied the LED mod. I must note that the fuse has blown and been bridged over, but other than...

I have a 2006 NTSC Wii motherboard that was shorted out somehow during an attempt to make a portable Wii. It's a mostly unmodified board, besides the right side being trimmed and the power port being removed. When plugged in, the LED light is red. When powered on, the light will only turn green...

I've been working on a portable gamecube, and recently my custom regulator has apparently broken. The voltage lines have increased in voltage, which fried one of my motherboards. I've confirmed that the regulator was working fine for a long time with correct voltages for the 1.9v, 3.3v, and 5v...

Don't really need help with anything, but I'm just curious about other people's modding experience. On average, how many GC motherboards would you say someone making their first portable will fry before finally building it? How long does a typical first portable take? I've been trying to build...
