just awesome!

That is really just a thing of beauty. Very nice work man.

wow. realy great work.

oh. my. gosh.

WANT

Will buy one for sure!

Fantastic!!! Very nicely designed pcb. I'll be buying a couple from you if the price is right. When are you going to produce them?

Great work kennyycc. Really hope you do make some more, I would definitely have a couple.

I'll install a WODE & then a Wiikey Fusion using this and take pics shortly (within the next week)

so this will work with a wii drive, too?

of course

Could anyone please explain to me in more detail what the shorting wire on the main wode board is for?

@emu_kidid: Any more news on when or if these adapters will be available? I've got everything I need now to install the Wode and was wondering if it's worth waiting for one of these adapters or to just try and solder directley to the FPC cable.

going to try installing one of these today if I can get the energy to do it.

need need need
if you produce them, let me know.

ps @ kennyycc: is the mainboard arrived?
should be there

ya sm4rty...Received...the board working. Thanks alot.

kennyycc, I have half installed the board, don't worry I haven't disappeared, just been very busy

Will update on progress in approx 30hrs

Hello,

I wish you order 6 pieces
What is the process to order?

Where i can buy one?

So I finally installed it, and I'm having issues with getting a Wiikey Fusion working. It blinks and blinks but I get the "Error the disc could not be read" message. All my switches are correct too. No difference with a 1.9v/GND switch. I noticed when I put the lid switch to closed and I haven't hit the GND/1.9v switch I get "Reading disc" flashing rapidly back to "Please insert a Gamecube Disc".

I've double checked all my points and they're solid, only thing I haven't checked is if the pin mappings are correct on the board itself. Also, the on board 3.3v wasn't very reliable so I wired it up directly. Neat little adapter if I could get it working right!

8. Sept 2011 to 31. Jan 2012 in 30 hrs - nice!

/me thinks emu_kidid has coded a time travel app for the GC and is not telling us

Awesome work! Love it

i want one when is this going into production?

There was discussion on IRC about making some of these boards but they do require the user to solder very precise points on the mainboard. Further discussion can be found here for an easier plug and play adapter alternative which "might" be available soon. Notice the word "might"
