G-Boy: Wii / GameCube Portable DIY Kit
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 พ.ค. 2024
- Modders have been building Wii Portables for years. But now, for the first time ever, talented members of the community have created a kit to make building a portable more accessible than ever. This is the story of the Gboy kit.
UPDATE:
Unfortunately, the BitBuilt Store has shut down, and the Gboy kit has been discontinued. But all is not lost!
Gman, Aurelio and I started a new storefront called "4 Layer Tech" where we sell improved versions of all the boards you need to make your own Wii portable! 4layertech.com/

-----Recommended Tools------
-IRONS-
Hakko 888D - amzn.to/3aDdSZa
The most popular and recommended iron in the community. Used to be the iron I used til I upgraded to the much more expensive Hakko 951. Tips are inexpensive and there are a huge variety
TS-80 - amzn.to/2Y5Japi
Supposedly a great iron, recommended by several of my friends, but I've personally never used it. USB C powered. Recommend purchasing a chisel tip as well.
-Rotary Tool-
Tool - amzn.to/2VCt3ha
For cutting the board. I have the harbor freight one, but this looks to be the exact same one but re-branded. Has served me great for years. Please wear safety glasses.
Cutoff Wheels - amzn.to/355nM4G
A cheaper dremel (rotary tool) is perfect, but I highly recommend getting nicer cutoff wheels. I've purchased a ton of different cutoff wheels, and these ez lock ones have always performed the best for me
-Multimeters-
Neoteck - amzn.to/2Y5X3DU
Entry level meter. Auto ranging. Should do the job
Fluke 117 - amzn.to/2VVLRHb
My personal multimeter, if you want something fancier.
-Hand Tools-
Screwdrivers
Basic - amzn.to/2S81ESa
Complete kit - amzn.to/2Y4ohdZ
I love my ifixit kit to death. I have like 4 of them. They can open anything. But the simple 3 pack should do the trick.
Flush cutters - amzn.to/355kv5u
Had these since 2014
Wire strippers - amzn.to/2KuHw8u
Magical tool. Never going back to manual wire strippers
Helping hand
Cheap (will do the job) - amzn.to/3cGrFQe
Durable (will last) - amzn.to/2VF3QTr
Holds things. Useful if you only have 2 arms
Tweezers:
Cheap (will do the job) - amzn.to/2KAoihW
Durable (will last) - amzn.to/3cYwhRQ
Tiny fingers. Like using cheat codes. Don't abuse your tweezers. They aren't pry tools.
-Supplies-
22 awg stranded wire - amzn.to/3cSGMq5
Use this for power. Perfect thickness for power in portables. Multiple colors lets you color coat voltage lines. Stranded keeps it from breaking inside the insulation and driving you crazy
34 awg magnet wire - amzn.to/3bEILOl
Use this for all your data lines. The enamel coating protects it from shorting. Make sure to tin it properly.
Solder (Kester 63/37)
Spool (recommended) - amzn.to/3bEJ2AR
Tube (not very much) - amzn.to/2S8XAkq
The good stuff. Leaded solder makes everything easier, and your joints better. Not any more dangerous than lead free solder, just don't eat it. 63/37 is the ideal ratio. Thinner is better
Flux - amzn.to/2Y2N7uM
Kester 951. Great flux. Soldering without flux is like washing dishes without soap. It just makes everything work soooooo much easier.
Solder braid - amzn.to/2KALEEa
For fixing small oopsies. Solder braid is like an eraser. Good eraser erases. Bad eraser just schemers stuff all over your work. Good solder braid is worth it.
Solder Sucker - amzn.to/3axp21K
For fixing big oopsies. You don't need a nice one, cheapest one you can find will do. This is the one I found.

*Hits Blunt*
What if they mod a home console psp
The problem: The Nintendo Switch is sold out almost everywhere
The Solution: lets make our own switch
This is far better
@@MARCM0DE It really isn't
@@lookatmynose9788 If it has the Gamecube library and the Virtual Console then it is def better than the Switch if you already own any other gaming console.
@@lookatmynose9788 it really is.

I love how he just puts googly eyes on everything. I imagine him with just a drawer in his desk dedicated to these things
Hopefully
Maybe he likes banjo kazooie
Imagine the drawer having Googly eyes
creepy
Ikr lol
I'm actually really sad that this kit doesnt exist anymore. Its so damn awesome. And i wouldve build one for me an my brother
Just curious, why does the kit not exist anymore?
nevermind, i read the description
It don't exist cause it dose not work right these guys are not engineers or programmers they just got sick of getting shit for playing with raspberry pies
@@ST3PH3N89 what makes you say that?
@@ST3PH3N89 what?
As an electrical engineer that ended up in an unfulfilling job, this looks like the perfect project to get my passion back.
Go for it :) tell us how it goes
As someone wanting to go for electrical engineering, this hurts to read.
@@MrMoofisAwesome depends on the company you work at and how much you love engineering
@@MrMoofisAwesome honestly same I'm going for Electrical Engineering at college this fall. Maybe I should switch my major 🤔
By cutting and soldering? Seriously?
Just remember this is a guy who made GameCube joycons.
Now I just need to see a combination of the two. A replicable GameCube-controller that also is the Wii, but can still be plugged into another Wii. Would be great for Smash tournaments.
That’s kinda a waste cuz u can use GameCube controllers on any switch game like Fortnite
Cool.
@@1foxyz Look at this dood.
@S C you can literally play gcn, wii and n64 games on this thing, cant do that with a gamecube controller
also, the kit wasnt made by shank, it clearly states in the video it's made by gman
shank just assembeled the kit into a wii
I've been on the outside of the modding community since I was a child and used to read up on Ben hecks guides for modding I gutted my first gc and bought components to make my first gc portable . I failed as I wasn't very knowledgeable and I didn't have the proper skillset yet, but I always looked up to you guys the pillars of the community. To this day I have not made a gc portable yet but I've never given up on wanting to make one and now I feel like absolutely can, thank you shank and literally everyone who poured their time and effort into helping the community become better modders, everything that you guys have done still amazes me to this day. This has inspired me I will be buying this kit and digging out my old components and making myself a wii portable. Ty again 💛
Okay, it's been 10 months. He's doing something crazy, and I'm both incredibly exited and incredibly terrified!
Edit: IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT!!!
Ohhhhhh yeah
or he do a little bit of trolling
I really hope he is still working on this and maybe changing some stuff because I wanted one really badly and now the thing has disappeared off the face of the earth
Lol
A year now
So basically what im getting from this is that if I were to try making a portable, I would end up with broken parts and a burning house, but with this kit, Ill only end up with a bunch of parts that should really be working but Im just too dumb to figure it out oh god why did i think this was a good idea this always happens guess its time to go cry in the corner like usual
BananaBonanza same I wanna do it but I don’t have the money or skill 😭
@Bryan Neblett some tool shops let you rent. maybe you can find a solder to rent
Just fill the shell with solder smh, it’s that easy.
250 likes and this comment's been up for 3 hours.
@BananaBonanza You and me both brother
I love how all of the videos on his portables have him destroying a disk drive in some way
For a 200K subscriber special he just buys a ton of broken wiis and destroys all of the disk drives.
noooo not nice, fully working why he destroy them?
@@jjoosshhb2193 All optical disk drives should die, they are slower than just putting the game on a sd card, USB stick, HDD, or SSD.
From the corpses of his wiis
@@waynes964 Piss off. Physical media is still a huge thing. Optical disc drives still matter.
Everybody gangsta till he dosen't post for a year
What the fuck does that even mean
That he’s probably working on something really cool
Hopefully another version of this
Lol I get it 🤣🤣
Everytime i watch one of these videos, it makes me wanna build my own portable console.
then sell your soul that ought to get you enough spare change to make one of these
@@joeycrump7536 dang that's some inspiring stuff right there

HE'S BACK! THE LEGEND HIMSELF!
i had to do it FIFTH!!
Woah! Let's goo!!!!!
The G-Boy is perfect. It's the culmination of the work of many caring communities, shows the countless hours put into it and the kit, and brought people together to surpass their limitations and create something incredible. I respect it greatly.

Me: Huh this looks pretty interesting I think I’ll check it out
*kit is $325*
Me: *cries in broke*
You could buy 1 and a half brand new switches for that.
Ikr? I thought that it'd even come at least all put together (well, of the parts included, anyway) if they're charging that much. Like hecc ;w;
wtf i wouldve just bought a wii
I'd expect at least a plastic injected case for that price
Not only that but it doesn't include the console itself so you're just buying some plastic and a display (w/ some other things) at a price that is way to high imho
This is amazing! It's really just so interesting that there's a community of people out there who are so creative and able to elevate a hobby we all share to such new heights.
I love how shank puts googly eyes on EVERYTHING
at this point, I'm pretty sure you're single handedly sustaining the googly eye industry 👀
More Shank Mods always makes any sort of quarantine all the better.

Really wish this was still available. Its super cool.
What happened?
@@chickennugget6654 it got discontinued
YOU'RE. A. LEGEND.
didn't realize you didn't make it yourself.
doesn't cancel you legend status tho
I swear, I see you every time some impressive portable is created.
I can already see myself throwing it while playing Wii Sports
😂
@DeAngelo Gore Damn bro you missed the joke, oh well.
@DeAngelo Gore If you were smart you'd know this is a joke
That's a good point. How are motion controls handled?
How do we add a safety strap
0:37 I love the “yes it runs doom please stop asking” here
You are awesome btw ;) I love your videos and projects (WiiVision is still my favourite)
So sad to see such an amazing project only be available for two years.
When your Wii portable costs more than the Wii home console, at launch.
but it certainly is much more affordable than one you could get five years ago!
Will considering you're getting every Nintendo system in one. It's pretty cheap
Inflation plus portability seems fair
@@Texasmediatv Inflation doesn't apply to products sadly. Old hardware depreciates, not appreciates. $350 is way too much
You also need to add the cost of the tools and other accessories that don’t come with this kit.
I want this _so_ much, but nope I'm not going to be able to do it myself. D:
Maybe one day I'll come across a premade one. =P
Nothing on Ebay yet unfortunately :(
@@haruhirogrimgar6047
Even if, it'd cost at least two times the kit price, let's be honest! =P
@@Kniffel101 $700 is tempting when all else I have to spend my paycheck on is charity and invest in my future (savings.) Sonic Riders on the go is just really tempting...
@@haruhirogrimgar6047 lmao
@@Kniffel101 Check out the bitbuilt forums! There are plenty of really talented modders that would be happy to make a portable for you. If given the right amount. Making a portable requires a decent amount of part finding (although the most experienced builders will likely have them already), as well as many hours of work.
However, asking someone to re-make a project they have already made, without any changes is a surefire way to commission a portable for yourself.
bitbuilt.net/forums/index.php?threads/g-wii-rev-2-build.2882/
I'm 100% certain you could find someone to commission this for you. As it's a pretty easy beginner build. Good luck!
I wish I can give my boy one of your works. Modern and old at the same time. I love your work keep it up man.
bro thank you so much for this video it helped me out alot, Im starting my wiiboy project soon and i cant wait to start.
i love how he always yeets the disk drives
They deserve it
@@ShankMods they really do
@@ShankMods quick question, why are games loaded through usb instead of SD/microsd?
the Wii has a SD card drive does it not? unless that's also slow asf?
9:11 this one ? xd
@@64bitmodels66 Wii supported max 32GB SD card, originally only 2GB. And one game has 4GB. Smash has even 8GB
This just popped up in my recommended. I didn't even know people were making Wii Portables in the first place. This is really cool! Maybe if I had the money I'd buy this and try it out.
Me too
Thanks for the video, I really wanted to make a portable and was looking for something to start off with.
Your editing is gold.
0:37 “Yes it runs Doom, please stop asking.”
Can it run Crysis?
🤣
Alex S I WAS JUST ABOUTTA MAKE THAT JOKE😂
Can It Run Doom?
Can it run Club Penguin?
The last time I was this early, the wii was just released
oh yeah yeah
Ewan Scott The last time I was this early my girlfriend was dissatisfied
The only thing I can't afford is your knowledge. You guys are legend.
I LOVED the GBoy rev3: those buttons and the 3DS pad was awesome in my opinion!
It's thinner and you don't risk breaking a stick when travelling
“Oh wow this is really cool, I might try this as a new hobby. I wonder how much they’re selling kits for...” looks at price. Cries in poor.
Assuming you're not joking about a new hobby, model kits are cheaper (to this anyways) and is similar in that you are building something from near scratch. Less emphasis on practicality and electronics, and more on craftsmanship.
I wish I had enough confidence to spend 325$ and risk making one of these but I’m like 90% sure I would screw this up
Me too, I’d love to do it but the amount of saving I’d need to do and the scary part of actually assembling it with not enough knowledge has completely turned me off. One day, just not now :(
You can buy 2 wii's for this prize
@@mustitendo4607 ? You can get a wii for 40-50 dollars
I believe in you
Vite the bullet
Now this is a system I would really like to get my hands on. Being able to play wii and gamecube games on the go is a game changer!
Awesome video I usually ignore the homepage suggestions but I'm glad I didn't this time. Entertaining and funny but still concise and informative big thumbs up :D
Am I about to spend probably more than $400 on a quarantine project I will probably fail? You bet your ass I will. Thanks for showcasing it!
good luck man you got this
@@chromso Thanks
Yeah you have the money...
Propably its only for adults and not for Teenagers like me
@@magicalruin Teenagers can make one for sure, but it's just that you need to have a lot of money and soldering experience.... which i don't have :(
When are you going to make a portable Nintendo Switch?
Haha Very Funny.
and all this time i thought it was already portable...
I have been waiting for this one too ! :D
I’m down for one.
I’m still waiting on that portable ds

With tax in Germany price is higher than a new switch
When you think you look for used switch with cfw and you load like these wii boy games from internet hell why are the costs so high
This is the geeky version of “I made a diamond ring out of this rusty nut and bolt” all you need is a rusty nut and bolt...... and 10k worth of specialty tools and knowledge
Danarchy3 and a rusty nut and bolt they’re charging 10k for
Oh come on, The kit is extremely overpriced but the tools used are fairly common for anyone even remotely handy the tools you can get for half the price of the kit if you buy half nice tools.
@@kylepalmer5785 to be fair to the kit, it's probably priced at manufacturing+R&D including time, but not at what I'd pay for it.
while cool, I'd rather get a switch than this kit.
"specialty tools".
It's all about who you want to support with your dollar, Nintendo makes me sick nowadays. The bit built guys are very admirable for putting this much effort out there, if I want a portable, I'll be buying my kit from them.
The inspiration I needed ! Thank you 🙏🏾
You know with how good modders are at converting portables, I really can’t wait for the day we get a while Wii U crammed into its game pad
I’d love to take a crack at this, but I sadly can’t really afford to go around spending $300+ on a kit, and I’m not experienced with homebrew whatsoever! I’ll stick to my console repairing and modifying for now!
Quantum you’re still a step ahead of me, Id like to learn how to repair consoles so i can repair old consoles that need the luv and tlc... cuz what old console can’t use some luv these days...
I’d definitely be interested in purchasing a pre-made G-Boy if that’s ever an option in the future! I just don’t want to risk breaking anything or setting it up incorrectly 😅
Same here
Same but if I think I still might give it a whirl
@@myart358 goodluck! the feeling you get once you finish it will be amazing
Let you know when I put mine on etsy
The kit is already $325. That's already way more than a pre-built would be worth.
I appreciate the appreciation you show
I loved the reference to Surprise4Ben. 2 years later and this is still a masterpiece.
This looks jaw dropping good. The ingenuity of EE people is incredible, and I'm just sitting here with my CS major. I think I handled a soldering only once in my life, and the end result was barely passable. But I digress: excellent work to all involved!
Never taken an EE class in my life. I'm Marketing and Management double major 😅
@@ShankMods Lol, I'm in my fourth year of EE and never learned how to do any of this. I've only soldered one thing once. I understand all of the theory that you talked about, but I need the practical experience of cutting things up and wiring things directly to chips because I've only ever worked with FPGAs, breadboards and springboards. I also need to learn how to do some CAD work.
At first I was thinking oh wow this is cool maybe I could get one of these. Then I saw the price
I mean, he literally needs to buy and tear apart a Wii for this
@@TocoaPuffs good point
@@TocoaPuffs console is Not included, Same as Buttons, Batteries and SD Card. So u buy that for 300ish and a Wii + small parts. So u around 500$
Here’s the problem, it looks like the joysticks included with this are the same shitty drifting ones from the Switch’s Joycons. So it would just be a waste of money anyway
@@charadreemurr445 well, if the sticks themselves are the same, then it’s fine, bc its quite comfortable to hold. It would be a problem if the stick box was the same, bc that’s what causes the drift

I’m definitely looking in to doing this after I mod my first game boy advance
"This dates back almost 7 years"
Yeah, I was hyped the whole time
NEVER FEAR GAMERS BECAUSE SHANK MODS IS HERE
I've been considering getting into this sorta thing for a long time and just haven't put in the effort to even begin understanding all the ins and outs and tools needed but I probably will dive into things eventually and this could be a good start sense I've already got a good understanding of wii homebrew and modding and a basic understanding of how to start on the hardware modding.
Man you are the one who motivated me to do what I do, now I make a living fixing computers and phones, but also i want to mods now!!
Imagine Playing Just Dance 2020 on a Wii Handheld

Heads up, the store for the GBky recently closed so you can no longer buy the shell needed.
Glad TH-cam recommended your channel.
This is so cool I never even thought of MAKING my own gaming device. This has really got me thinking I’m gonna try this. I know nothing about electronics but looks like something I could get into.

@Frax Yes, a 3D printer lets you do loads more stuff than Lego bricks, but some people just want to build stuff out of Lego, and I see no reason why they shouldn't.
@@BrightSpark it's easier to use than setting up an emulator but why would you pay the same price as the switch for something that can't run any newer games, plus you could just get a switch lite for much cheaper.
@@se.224 it's on Google play
This video is really comprehensive!
Well this is quite interesting to hear. I am now officially hopeful for a handheld mod of a Wii U as well. I can't wait to try this product when the time comes.
I’m gonna sound like a boomer here, but it’s just crazy to think that tech can be so small now. I mean a Wii and a GameCube combined into one hand held portable.
Yep. doesn't take much at all to run wii or gamecube games.
ClarkLikesCats yep he said in the video
@@Prince_Dracula yes is a fucking word.
It’s not even miniaturized tech. They just cut away unnecessary parts of the board.
HE HAS RETURNED!
Dude this is so cool I have a Wii with a wrecked video connection so this is awesome to find
At first i thought this project was made by using new and improved hardware . But when you said it uses original wii hardware i was amazed! This thing would have blown my mind in 2006 when the original wii was released. There was nothing like it.
Raspberry Pi’s watching this video be like
👁👄👁
Raspberries are horrible at wii games kinda tuff
not really a fair comparison as the wii is a purpose built gaming machine.
4:35 scared the shit out of me I legit thought someone was behind me
One of the many things I love about shank: his googly eye obsession.
This guy is super clever and funny. Brilliant channel.
i love how you put googly eyes in every cable XD
This is incredible! My Wii's disc drive is busted, so this is a tempting option to mess around with, but I'll have to give it some thought, since it'll be a significant investment to also get all the necessary tools.
Thank you so much for highlighting this and thanks so much to GMan and the rest of the community for making this!
Why don’t you just mod your current Wii and play games that way? definitely a cheaper route for your situation. Nevertheless it still seems like a fun project.
@@Chris-no8yb, oh, I already have modded it, it's just tempting to make it portable because I love my Switch. I have a Wii U as well, so not all is lost when it comes to playing my Wii games.
I guess the one thing I'd want more from this project is the ability to "dock" and output the picture to my TV so I can play that way too... But I'm getting way ahead of myself thinking of all that XD
@@podracer35 Docking is nowhere near impossible, but you just have to know what you're doing. I don't know if there's room in there to do it but on my Wii Portable, it'll have 4 GC ports, HDMI out, a radio, an MP3 player, 4 18650 batteries with a removable backing like the Switch that'll have 8 18650 batteries (with a stand because it will be heavy), a TV antenna, an Android TV box, and a mobile hotspot. These will be stripped to bare bones, and I'm making my own case, but hey if you know what you're doing, there's an example of what you can do.
@@legomaniac588 Your Wii Portable sounds more like a Tv + built in wii lol.
@oxygen potassium I haven't made the case yet, as I want to order all the parts then make it as small as possible (since the size will be fairly large) but I expect it to be around the size of Jefflongo's Wii Portable. As you can imagine it will be nowhere near as portable as this.
Edit: It will also have Bluetooth audio.
The only problem I'm encountering is how to get 4 different voltages managed with one switch.
Before other people go down the rabbit-hole - tldr; This kit is no longer available, if you search you can get the PCBs (maybe) but nothing else afaik. :(
This is the coolest thing I've ever seen!!!
*Makes a portable wii*
Nintendo: *Wants to know your location*

Man, that looks so dang fun, I honestly love how it looks, saw Gman’s vid too about the Rev 3, it’s incredibly tempting to want to buy all the soldering necessities and take a crack at this as well. Awesome video as always
Thanks!
While this is an ‘old’ video, and I’m no engineer, this was incredibly fascinating to wtach and learn about. Holy crap
This is the second video of yours I've watched, I hadn't subbed yet, but the googly eyes on the usb and then smashing the usb connector into the front of the case had me laughing my ass off, clicked subscribe straight after that. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
One of the rare times TH-cam recommends something that just blows my mind. I'm currently studying energy and electrical technology and I feel obligated to attempt this lol. Great video btw
I’ve been slowly dipping my toes into modding for a little while now. So far I’ve done a few RGB output mods and put a backlit screen in a GBA. I’ve wanted to try portablizing since your wiivision video, this kit is fist thing that has really made me feel like I can do it. I have a kit on order and am planning to make it my project for this summer.
Nice!
Damn that kind game at 1:20 brings back good memories, glad I still have my gamecube!
its been almost a year.. he's working on something really big
I bought a mini-console kit when I was 10 and I broke it trying to build it, so I've been nervous to try out new electrical stuff. With this, I might be interested in trying it again. Great video!
You consistently amaze me, and remind me to chase the things I love. Thank you, and rock on
Hands down, if he starts selling these things I'll buy RIGHT AWAY!
There is a kit
This is amazing! I wish I had enough confidence with hardware to pull off making one myself 😅
