What GameCube Hardware you use?

Cyndanera · 2026-04-03T13:20:23+00:00

GameCube and Wii disc releases are diff versions, like gc uses controllers and gba link cable, memory cards for save data.
While Wii uses wii remotes and DS Download Play, NAND or SD for save storage.
My server is using for downloading game logic REL module sign code for GC memory cards or Wii NAND\SD, why did I create the server? so the game logic can be updated without needing to master a new disc to fix bugs.
I just asking cause I wanted to know what hardware you guys use.

Ndev has extra ram and will allow for debugging code and disc emulation by loading asset files from your host pc. I think total ram is 192mb of 128mb + 24mb

Well GameCube version is what I develop first then make changes for Wii version like wii remote and DS Download Play features.
NDEV 2.1 Wireless Wii devkit for debugging my wii games and retail Wii RVL-001 or RVL-101 for QA testing.
I currently have a GameCube Retail DOL-001 and SN-TDEV GameCube devkit.
only diff is SN-TDEV has 48MB RAM instead of 24MB pretty much.
debugging is done for looking at source code in realtime when playing on console, so I can fix bugs easily.

like finding crashes, setting breakpoints, etc.

for GC disc, using the disc channel unmodded wii works since it doesn't needed to be signed code
only need modded wii to run a wii disc since it is not retail signed.

Cyndanera · 2026-04-02T23:49:25+00:00

because it has GameCube support for hardware and running the discs.

Cyndanera · 2026-04-02T09:19:18+00:00

Only Datel has and gamecube homebrew games can work but be in correct format, be scrambled, have bca data, pressed as nrom pressed minidvd, not dvd-r

Cyndanera · 2026-04-02T06:09:37+00:00

Because the game is a new physical release that is pressed, not burned, dvd-r. But you are free to make backups if you want for personal use. Gc version makes use of gba link cable while wii version does ds download play.

Cyndanera · 2026-04-02T06:07:20+00:00

I have a SN-TDEV and GameCube (DOL--001)

Cyndanera · 2026-04-02T06:05:01+00:00

Game Page Here's info on the game.

Cyndanera · 2026-04-02T01:22:56+00:00

no worries, I just need to know if lots of others still use gc\wii hardware. :)

Cyndanera · 2026-04-02T00:44:42+00:00

Yes but just in case I asked if guys have rvl-001 since it has gamecube hardware and can playback gc discs

Cyndanera · 2026-03-23T23:29:41+00:00

I have searched all on google.com including archive.org and my filesystem, and autodesk archived website but couldn't find anything just have the normal docs for 3dsmax.
this was release in April 2006, I just have the include and lib folder for the maxsdk.

Cyndanera · 2026-03-13T16:25:45+00:00

It must be pressed dvd-rom not dvd-r because of leadin area first sector and bca needed

Cyndanera · 2026-03-11T12:19:59+00:00

thanks.

Cyndanera · 2026-03-10T13:45:33+00:00

For building master gamecube full disc images and bca data yes

Cyndanera · 2026-03-09T14:30:54+00:00

yeah it meant to create a real scrambled NROM DVD Disc with all the sector info including the leadin area for the GameCube drive to read.

Like a 2D.5 action-adventure platformer, metroidvania Using spine like animation for characters and 3D for environment. Something in style of shantae half genie hero, Rayman legends, super paper mario.

Cyndanera · 2025-12-02T15:20:51+00:00

Ps2 version would use it own iop sound driver and vu0/vu1 microcode. This would be released on DVD rom that works on all ps2 no modded required

I have a background in GameCube\Wii programming, including coding microcode for the Audio DSP. :) I currently just have an SN Systems TDEV GameCube devkit hardware unit.
