FlipperMCE: Open Source GameCube Memory Card

https://retrorgb.com/flippermce-open-source-gamecube-memory-card.html

Let’s talk about the GameCube memory card that’s basically a hacker’s dream: Meet FlipperMCE—open source, affordable, and delightfully unpolished.

Tito from Macho Nacho Productions just dropped a video showcasing this DIY-friendly memory card for your GameCube. No retail store yet, but if you’ve got a soldering iron and a taste for tinkering, the GitHub files are live. Or, if you’d rather not become a circuit board wizard, PCBWay will print and ship you 5+ units—perfect for a group of friends who miss saving their Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker saves in 2004.

It’s not as slick as the MemcardPro GC (no fancy LCD screen or pre-loaded firmware), but that’s kinda the point. You get full access to the code, total customization, and a lower price tag. Think of it as the “open source Linux” of memory cards—less polished, more power.

For retro gamers who like knowing exactly what’s running inside their gear? This is your jam.

For everyone else? Maybe wait until someone sells it on eBay… but where’s the fun in that?

Grab the files. Solder some bits. Save your N64-style saves like a true purist.
