Raspberry Pi Pico can be use for Nintendo GAMECUBE
Recently it was reported that the tiny control board Raspberry Pi Pico launched a new version with Wi-Fi. Maybe most netizens who don’t engage in makers and handicraft projects will be curious about what use this small board is for? It is amazing to know that it can be used to magically modify Nintendo’s GAMECUBE (NGC) game console.
Although Nintendo NGC was defeated in the host war with the PS2, it is a game console produced by the old master manufacturing of the game console market after all. In fact, NGC still has a lot of fun games. The non-mainstream 9cm disc was used on NGC, which greatly affected the circulation.
However, the era of NGC’s transformation is relatively old now. For some NGCs that have not been modified, it may be difficult to find chips available today, so a developer thought of using Raspberry Pi Pico to replace those magic chips, and got a project called PicoBoot. Compared with the previous modified chip, it is an open-source project, supports subsequent upgrades, is also compatible with Swiss boot tools, and retains booting from genuine discs, supports GBA player, etc.
