After discover the project of @Banjokazooie, and after to release a GameBoy Zero, i must to look this project !
I buy all and i use this topic to share the progress and help others on this fabulous project.
You will understand... I fell in love of this Wii U Gamepad !
-----------------------
I want to use this part. It maintains the buttons PCB in place but i remove all the parts on it.
I use this FFC FPC adapter :

I found the GND on 1/2/3. TV button on 6. Amber led on 11. Red led on 12. Power button on 15. Home button on 16 (19/20 not used, logic)
Impossible to found the 2 blue led. I solder directly on the PCB. All is ok
The support where everything will come graft.
Sorry for bad english
Stay connected

-------------------
I fix the screen's motherboard and the PI3 with Nylon Screw and Epoxy (it's the first time i use this glue) and... it's work. Very solid.
Little bolts and it's ok
I repeat... big thanks @Banjokazooie

Hello
Very little. For the moment, i wait the batteries :

The batteries will take up a lot of space and i still have a lot of things to place, i still do not know how to do it...
I removed the inside of the back of the controller and place a very little detail (but important !

).
And here, all the components (i wait the Jack 5pins)
