Bump, or I dunno.
For some reason, I had an account and I don't recall signing up? Maybe it was a few years ago, I forgot.
Anyhow, is this project still alive?
@meneerbeer has been updating it about once a month.
I do wish for more frequent updates or maybe a link to where he is posting frequent updates (if he is).

Thanks for all the interest. The project is certainly still ongoing.
Most of the essential features have been implemented, such as firmware updates, and I only have a few things left to implement. Once that is done I am thinking of doing a small production run so some other people can help test.

Thanks for the update meneerbeer, how many people do you need for testing?

The amount of available test boards is probably going to depend on cost per board and total cost. I have not looked into that yet.

Have you ever thought about making the board and code public? I'd be down for testing, but would also be down for making the board myself.

I cannot wait for this be released. What's the timeline look like? a month? a year? (I cannot find much information or stock for the current way to run homebrew/games off an SD card for Gamecube).

Better off using a Wii and PortabilizeMii (check out bitbuilt forums for more info).

Hopefully we can get an update soon.
I too have no issues soldering and even ordering my own pcb and such for the project if we need to test more.

I'm definitely interested in trying one out once you get some out for testing. What kind of price are we looking at to test?
