PicoBoot

This is a long awaited IPL replacement modchip for Nintendo GameCube. It's open source, cheap and easy to install.

Difference from the original Picoboot

webhdx's PicoBoot: https://github.com/webhdx/PicoBoot doesn't support boards other than the official Raspberry Pi Pico. This repository enables the led support on RP2040 Zero board.

Features

  • it's open source
  • uses Raspberry RP2040 microcontroller powered RP2040 Zero board
  • very easy installation, only 5 wires to solder
  • programmable via USB cable, without any drivers and programs
  • automatically boots any DOL app of your choice
  • uses "IPL injection" approach superior to mods like XenoGC
