Thanks man! I tried them but they didnt work for me. I just used regular old sticks in the end, couldnt be bothered figuring out why they didnt work :P Maybe someone else can give them a go.

Closed up another WiiSPii I had lying around for 3 years yesterday. After some issues with the analog triggers I’ve managed to flash them properly thanks to Aurelio straight from the GC configurator. Case cost me my left nut from PCBway but it is dyed acrylic. I opted for shielded wire this...

Red is sold! Orange, blue and aluminum red still available.

Hi all, I have some completed Retro Lite CM4s in funtastic colors for sale. These are all completed units (everything has been tested) and all you need to do is drop in your CM4 to get them working. I'm selling each of them for $550 + shipping ($600 for the metal edition). All come with a PD...

I finally finished my Retro Lite CM4 shadowbox! I always liked the concept of displaying exploded game consoles on the walls as art. I think a vertical explosion would have looked way cooler but obviously that’s impossible to do thanks to gravity. I had too many of these lying around and people...

AUD? You are aware of how PayPal works, right? They ship globally.

By the way, the amount of GPU performance increase (literally 2-3 fold) required to run GC/Wii/PS2 titles on a Pi 4 is insane. The VideoCore GPU on the Pi 4 is so old by today's standards, is built on a very old node and it caps out its GPU clock speed of 900Mhz at an absolute maximum. Even...

You just upload the zip file in the PCB section of the GitHub under the CAD directory (those labeled with Gerbers). No timeline on the build guide right now unfortunately as I’m quite busy but hopefully in the next month or so I’ll release it.

Hi there, 1. There is no real easy way to do this unfortunately. The BOM is on the GitHub and some parts you may have to hand solder like the USB2422 and TPS82085 which are both out of stock. You can get the board working without them but it requires some hand wiring. Reach out to makerfabs as...

Wow! It’s commendable that you were able to get this working let alone in the short time frame you did. I’m excited for what’s to come! Do you plan on building a fully integrated portable/your own spin on the PS2 slim? I hope you also go back to your CM4 portable at some point too, whenever...

The grub screws go through the top half of the case and press up against the part of the hinge that doesn’t rotate, to make sure they don’t fall out. There’s one on each side, one per hinge. There’s no grub screws inside of the screen halves. If you look at the CAD files you’ll see how it has...

Dock is now partially working - for those who want to try it themselves, code base available here, written in C and Python. Still a work in progress but should be done in the next couple of weeks. Right now it only displays Pi stats and a basic combined image + a splashscreen, but I have plans...

This is fantastic stuff, I especially like the heatspreader idea. That PCB looks gorgeous. Best of luck with the BGAs too!

Difficulty wise in terms of assembly it’s very easy, mostly drop in with only soldering of the speakers required. It becomes a lot more complicated if you’re doing the assembly of the PCBs but that’s no different to assembling any other bare board - you just need a stencil, a steady hand and a...

The Retro Lite CM4 is open source now for anyone who wants to build one - CM4 availability is supposed to improve in a few months, so thought it would be good timing to release it: https://github.com/StonedEdge/Retro-Lite-CM4 A written build guide/part sourcing guide will come in the coming...

We used two grub screws to hold them in place through the base of the hinge. It was quite a tight fit but I never had any issues with the use of grub screws.
