    Great work! I was under the assumption you gutted a Wii and put it inside. I'd imagine the architecture of the Wii would be what Nintendo would use to run this. It's compact enough and able to run GCN games as roms perfectly. Maybe that would make more sense financially for them, but either way, yeah, I'd say this is a long ways off regardless. Really fun video!

      That's what I'd assume, too. The Wii mini wasn't _that_ long ago, they likely still have the tools to make broadway and hollywood chips at reasonable prices. (Especially since they could go for a smaller MEM2) Not sure how expensive HDMI out would be, but GC games don't really need upscaling, simplifying the matter.

      They could change some things in the Wii. It requires almost no additional hardware to run Gamecube games. So use the Wii mini as a base and shrink it down. I don't even think it needs to be shrunken that much as it will already be smaller without it's disc drive.

      My thoughts exactly, Nintendo could just reproduce the Wii's CPU, add a sleek and modern interface, add more RAM for better loading, and have about 128 gigs of internal storage for 60 games.
      And vuala, Gamecube Classic

    All Nintendo has to do is dig up their Wii tech from 2006 and repackage it as a Gamecube mini. It's not even emulation so compatibility would be 100%. It has to be cheap enough to pull off in 2018.

    • @CommodoreFan64
      @CommodoreFan64 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The problem with that idea is IBM has stopped producing PowerPC chips used in the GameCube - WiiU, and ATI aka AMD no longer produces the Hollywood line of GPU tech used in those 3 consoles, and to get it cheap enough we would need to emulate on an ARM SOC, but it would need to be some seriously custom Linux code from the ground up to get good performance, and would need to be at least a 64bit octocore ARM SOC with 4GB of RAM.

      Dreamcast actually emulates decently on Android (I have a device called a GPD XD that runs Dreamcast well) so that should make things easier.

    I don't know if you tried this, but you can slow the emulated clock speed of the gamecube processor. This enables games to frame skip and do other tweaks to make games run faster, because it thinks you just have a slow gamecube.

    Considering even the Wii U was basically a rarified GameCube, I wouldn't be terribly surprised if a "classic" take on the system was basically a single-board Wii. They got GameCube miniaturization down to a freaking art.

    This could probably be made with a trimmed down Wii board. The Wii has perfect compatibility with all GameCube titles and can function with a shocking amount of its main board removed, provided essential components are replaced. The front controller ports could use the ports from the top of the Wii. It could also play Wii games as a bonus as long as a sensor bar and wireless module is added. Everything could boot from an SD/MicroSD and run to the TV through Wii component cables. It would require the sacrifice of a functioning Wii or salvaging of one in repairable condition, and a lot of work to fine tune component placement, soldering, cooling, etc, but it would be a cool project with a one of a kind product.

    When I used the Dolphin Emulator on my old Gaming Rig, I used a official WiiU GCN Controller Adapter. (Fully Compatible with Dolphin, and up to 4 controllers to usb.) You can try pluging one of those into a small pc if you want actual GCN hookups for the GCN Mini.

    @MrSlowestD16 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice work. Definitely a nice DIY project that hits the mark of a Mini, IMO. As for potential cost for them to make, you're off a bit with your estimates. A lot of the Switch's cost comes from the screen, joycons, etc. You need to remember that the Nvidia Shield TV uses the same exact TX2 SOC as the Switch yet it costs half the price. That should be able to run Dolphin quite well, but still may have trouble with some titles that just don't emulate well, just like the Switch. But yeah, you could definitely get something out the door running TX2 SoC or similar for $150, and I think if they were to create a Game Cube Mini @ the $150 price point it would sell well. Maybe even the $175 price point with a controller that they source from a 3rd party (opposed to making their own), there's plenty of 3rd party controllers for GC.

    • @freshstat1csnow
      @freshstat1csnow 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      3DS uses entirely different hardware from the GameCube and it's not powerful enough to emulate it. It would be easier to saceifice a broken Wii for its motherboard and some other parts since it's just upgraded GC hardware anyway.

  • @dizzym9554
    @dizzym9554 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    The Switch is a decent comparison point for "the kind of system that might be able to run Dolphin". It's based on the same chipset used in a number of phones that are fully capable of playing a number of games on the Android version of Dolphin, but it would still probably struggle slightly without tweaks, much like your build does.

    • @dizzym9554
      @dizzym9554 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      (Basically what I'm saying is despite your saying you're "no expert", you've got a pretty good handle on the current power of embedded systems as far as emulation. Good video.)
