modchips are largely used to circumvent copy protection, which infringes copyright in many legislations. other forms of moddding, such as portabilization, do not violate the copyright laws as no intellectual property is touched.

making a homebrew cartridge is a great effort because of all the devices that need to be present (RAM for ROM storage, a BIOS for accessing the card and transferring an initial loader to the RAM bank, SRAM for save games, optionally various accessories for special cartridges), which makes it much ...

Get a replacement top for full size DVDs? (note that doesnt mean you will be able to play DVDs)

<a href="http://www.mpaa.org/piracy_FederalLaw.asp">this</a> may allow you to play dvds

No modchip links. Take it down before a mod tells you to and "warns" you...
How I just love it when people ...

that design was how they SHOULD be on the joystick. I have no idea about the sub-circuit wiring.
A voltage divider is a series of resistors that allows a fraction of the voltage to lead an input. It IS basically the whole thing I drew.
yes, the box is a resistor, it is the European symbol for one ...

I'm a student, not an engineer. However, I believe the most difficult part will be positioning the buttons where the stick used to be. The actual placement of wiring is a non-issue. However, a fuse, if placed, should go between the +3.3V lane and the positive terminal of the voltage dividers. It ...

As a potentiometer used in a joystick usually is used as a voltage divider consisting of two resistors (the part between + and out and the part between - and out) for which the ratio of the resistors is the value detected, one should be able to substitute a pair of resistors with buttons to short ...

triwing is for GBA/DS and accessories.
Also for GC controllers, I believe.
Allegedly the Wii aswell, but I can't confirm that.
I can confirm that the Wii uses a triwing screw

edit: Wii controllers, that is. the only screws i've seen on the console itself are phillips.
beneath the feet, some ...

The one and only strap for the DS is the one which came with the original DS anyway. Every single other one sucks as it lacks the thumb plate.

Wii understands USB keyboards on the Internet channel and the GC-Linux port, as well as the message board. So that could be added. Also, storage for wiimotes.

how did you get it so damn huge? is that black thing a car battery?

They seem to have decided on an ATA interface now:

I know Nintendo makes them with plastic, I just wanted to know whether that really works well.

So these Nintendo connectors (which are used with different casing in the GameBoys and the 'Cube as well) are nothing more than a strip of PCB at the jack side?

most PC monitors do not accept TV frequencies.
TV capture cards usually has a delay that is too high for decent gaming.
