it looks like the top-side has a slot right smack in the middle that looks kinda like a SD shape (rectangle with a corner clipped). could that be a connector that's just not populated?

Ok, now, with the tables that makes sense.

in the first case, you're using the pinout from the GC side, and in the other, the pinout from the Wii side... that's why i was confused...

And of course: like they said... awesome!

Those pinouts are of the top AND bottom of the motherboard. Which is why one goes one way and the other looks backwards. There are also 2 sets of top and bottom pictures. One set for the original GC pinout and one set for the Wii Drive Adaptation. look at the picture labelled "Gamecube Origina...

the pinout picture for the drive on the mobo seems to have a mistake on the pinout numbers. one of the pictures (it shows the serial number of the mobo) has the numbering going from left to right, and a couple pictures down, the same picture has the same numbering going from right to left. I think t...

Here's the thing. Call it bad communication I suppose. The wife and I have had a holiday scheduled for June to go to the beach since like last year some time.

wow, nice, you got to see it in real life :) i wish i had a chance to actually hold it (to figure out the weight), and play it (to see how fast it's playing when playing locally on the screen...) either way, i'm fairly certiain i'll be saving my money for when this sucker gets released. it was impr...

for those interested, i snap'ed that picture today: http://korigan.net/wiiu_photo.jpg that should give you an idea of the size... sadly, the lines where somewhere around 4 to 6 hours to get to see it, and i wasn't willing to wait that long to get my hands on it for 2 minutes... too many things at E3...

34 here. and you know what, i've been playing stuff for 30 years, and i'm not stoping anytime soon!

The wording is ambiguous. It could either mean that the controller can't be used without the console. (You can't buy just the controller...and still play games.) Or, it could mean as stated in the article. i am curious as to how they handle multiple screen. obviously, output from the console can be...

Thanks for the links. So does anyone know what Brakken is doing these days? I've always enjoyed tehskeen for its reporting of scene news.

I upgraded my motherboard to this http://www.msi.com/product/mb/P67A-C43--B3-.html and now qoob is not recognized :( It seems to be a problem specific to the usb controller on the board - I've tried a bunch of different settings in the bios but nothing helped. The qoob still works fine on other PCs...

it simply means that the drive is having trouble identifying the content of the disk (and calibrating the laser would fix that -- turn the pot to make it work...)
