This Swiss team just posted another release, focusing on specific game enhancements and adding the ability to launch the Game Boy Player startup disc from an SD card. Of course, no one with SD launch access would want to use the GBP disc over the Game Boy Interface software, however being able to launch GBP […]
A new version of the GCVideo firmware was released that fixes the audio bug that resulted in reduced volume even when volume was set to 255 in the OSD. Certainly not something people without programmers should be worrying about, but if you have the ability to update and don’t mind nerding out, might as well give […]
Update: One more: https://github.com/emukidid/swiss-gc/releases The Swiss team has been hard at work updating their software, with three four updates in the previous weeks! For anyone unfamiliar with the software, the most common use is for launching games with forced video modes, such as forcing a 480i game to run in 480p. Swiss can be used with […]
Insurrection Industries has just teased a custom GameCube component video cable that utilizes their high-quality Digital Port connector. As it’s based off the latest version of GCVideoLite, it’s assumed that the cables will perform identically to the official Nintendo GC component cables and connect the same as well: Their cables get component video from […]

The main page lists the adapter as “lag-free”, but that’s hard to believe considering you first have to convert the controllers […]

Someone on the AssemblerGames forum found a similar prototype a […]
Unseen just published a firmware update for all GCVideo devices (analog, digital, dual, Wii, etc) that addresses a chroma bug: https://github.com/ikorb/gcvideo/releases From what I gathered, the bug happens when GCVideo converts from the GC’s native signal format of YCbCr to RGB. Component video output was unaffected. Extrems demonstrated this via screenshots on his page: https://www.gc-forever.com/wiki/index.php?title=Game_Boy_Interface/High-Fidelity_Edition#Video_quality Unfortunately, […]
Nintendo will release rebranded Smash Bros. GC pads with a Switch logo on the box to coincide with the new Smash Bros. game releasing on November 16th. A new version of the multitap will be available on December 7th, but there’s no confirmation if it will be USB or wireless. My guess is this is just […]
