I remember reading a bit back that it has to be specefic gauge for the wires, is that still correct? I have not encountered that before in any previous mods I have done.
As always on micro electronics, you need keep the wires short as possible and use the thickest wire you can, on this case you should use AWG between 28-32 or enamel ones, they shouldn't be so thick they ripoff your test points or traces on the board.

The flex cable for the CPU have the mosfet on it, you can use directly soldered mosfet or use one of the mods described two pages ago. the important post have some ideas for connecting it also.
Congratulations to all involved - Huge step forward in the scene. China not to happy right now.
i have hwfly V1/v2 cables. i saw only one wire going from it to the RP2040. Which point of the cable do I sodder to RP2040?
I am hesitating to buy hwfly today. I asked the official Chinese merchant about this news and the price of hwfly. The answer was disregard.
swrew the fucking chinese merchant
Is derped. Either one or the other is required. So either a) the flex or b) the mosfet
You use PicoTool, there are some post at start of the thread.
Hold the bootsel button and copy the uf2 file

Hi all! Help is needed. Somehow unsuccessfully put rp2040, blinked blue, then purple and stopped turning on. I checked all the soldering, I didn’t find any problems, I was busy half the night, it didn’t start. As a result, the chip was removed, but now, when turned on, the Nintendo logo appears for only a few seconds, then a black screen and no reaction. When charging is connected, the battery charge indicator also appears for a few seconds and also a black screen, the battery itself is 60% charged. What are the options and assumptions?
I have already designed one but final cost can't compare with widely available rp2040-zero. Just do it for fun and fit inside console easier.
Sounds like something went wrong and you have bricked with I'm guessing a bad boot0 file.
Please post picture of your soldering work.
has anyone seen seeed XIAO rp2040, is this chip also compatible? - Seems it’s hard to buy RP2040-Zero in UK unless anyone has any best places to buy from?
I'm about to create a new thread with information in one place including, firmware, images etc.
How could you easily program it?For those trying to save space and not wanting to remove buttons or the usb port - This should also work,

Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version? -

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
