03.10.2025 08:42 โ ๐ 5 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0If you're wondering what might be next on #FlipperMCE - here's some stuff I'm working on in the background. No ETA yet. This does not mean, that automagically game loading will happen - but it at least is a foundation for it ;)
29.09.2025 14:43 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Oookay... I just received the first batch of production PCBs for #FlipperMCE - and apparently there is an error in the BOM, listing the wrong display connector. I pulled the PCB release files from the repo until I have figured this out.. sorry for the inconvenience ๐
22.09.2025 08:10 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Thanks so much to all beta testers for discovering many bugs before public release โค๏ธ !
BIG BIG thanks to @GameBitFunX to design the case and PCB โค๏ธ !

Sometimes it's just time to release... Like today ๐ After about 6 months of development, I'm proud to present version 1.0 of #FlipperMCE to you.
Now head over to flippermce.github.io to see what this is actually all about โค๏ธ
And as always: I love good Coffee ๐
It just took about 12345 iterations - but I think this bracket should make display adjustment a lot easier๐ #FlipperMCE

It's a prototype unit of the FlipperMCE memory card for the GameCube.

Some more fun with #FlipperMCE Splash Screen ๐ Took some inspiration about how to generate a uf2 file directly from #PicoLoader <3

22.06.2025 17:07 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Lots of testing and bugfixing for the new #GamecubeMCE this weekend - turns out wii is less forgiving than initially thought :D... What do you guys think of this Info output regarding card size and region (W/J) on the display? Too much? Keep it?
22.06.2025 07:02 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Finally after some superb PCB design by seewood and some super mediocre case design by me we finally have a first internal alpha version of our #GameCubeMCE ๐คฃ

08.06.2025 11:55 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Since Nintendo won't give it away, we've decided we will instead. Picked up a few copies to giveaway next week on the site, but as a head start, just make sure you're following and repost this for a chance to win one!
I'll draw a winner at some point on Sunday. Be aware it's a UK code!
Okidoki, now I just need to figure out why input works on dolphin but not on real HW๐คฃ
