These Raspberry Pi Pico based loaders let the console load Swiss, the open-source GameCube homebrew loader, from an SD card at boot. The range includes the solderless Makeo Picoloader and the bare Picoboot board, with options for both DOL-001 and DOL-101 consoles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePicoboot or Picoloader: which one do you need?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePicoboot is a bare Raspberry Pi Pico. It needs to be flashed with the Picoboot firmware and soldered into the GameCube, either with discrete wiring or with a Helder Game Tech quick-solder flex cable. It is the lower cost route and suits buyers who are comfortable with a soldering iron.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Makeo Picoloader is a pre-flashed, drop-in version of the same idea. It does not require soldering and is the easier option for buyers who want a clean install without console soldering. Both give the same end result once installed: the GameCube can load Swiss from SD card when the console powers on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGameCube compatibility: DOL-001 and DOL-101\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePicoboot and the Makeo Picoloader fit both common GameCube revisions:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDOL-001:\u003c\/strong\u003e the original revision with the Digital AV Out port on the back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDOL-101:\u003c\/strong\u003e the later revision with the Digital AV Out port removed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are taking the soldered route, the Helder Game Tech quick-solder flex cable is revision specific.
