Hi, I just registered, I have no knowledge of modding and little funds *that could change rapidly.
I may be interested in making a Wii portable, I have a Wii, but I'm not sure how many layer's it has, I'm not confident in trimming it so I'll either buy a motherboard or I won't trim it as I've heard some people don't.
I have a family member who's into electronics/it but has never touched console parts. I'll watch every video on Shank's page.
The one resource I have is time.
In my wildest imagination, I'd put a Wii motherboard in an old laptop, I don't know if anyone has done that.
I know the best way to start is to try until you succeed but do you have more tips?
I've always been keen on D.I.Y., I've seen the Gboy but you know better than me how buying them isn't easy. The Ashida seems a bit hard, correct me if I'm wrong.
