Oh wow! That's a ton of research you've put into this! Your notes and explanations were far better than what I was finding online back then. I kinda gave up on trying to find a solution to the whole Wii U Gamepad capture mod thing back then, but I've recently have been inspired once again because of stuff like the (almost) solder-free HDMI kit for the Gameboy Advance (https://retrogamerepairshop.com/product ... 9770694828).

I had to get a second part time job last summer just so I could pay my bills, so I've had very little time or energy to dedicate to learning PCB design to be able to make my own HDMI kit. That being said, I still have some hope that someone with more time and brains than me will come up with something that works.

Indeed. I've been going over everything and did a little more research over the last few months. I'm gonna try what I've learned on a backup GamePad I bought and I'll let everyone here know how it goes.

Wish me luck.
