Keep in mind that the open source design that was meant to be cheap would be at least 2 times more expensive with Serial Port 1 due to complexity of the design to make it sit firmly in the slot.

No problem. The short version is for rollback you need to store copies of the match state in RAM. So every frame, the game is saving a snapshot of the RAM values used by the match. These snapshots are what is actually "rolled back" to when it needs to go back to a known good frame if it guesses wrong. This gets more complex the more variables there are in the match, and Melee is complex due to the fact that it has to track items, stage animations, etc. Modern games can account for this RAM usage, but on GameCube Melee is using pretty much all the RAM. So there's not enough space to put those previous frames to roll back to. Slippi can do it because you have to run it on a PC, and since the GameCube only had 24MB of RAM there's plenty of spare RAM on modern PCs to brute force saving frames to roll back to. @@PERSONALEEMG

Just the thought of online Double Dash has me salivating!

There was also this old project known as GCARS that loaded in patches to allow a few more games to be played online on an actual GameCube, including Super Smash Bros Melee, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, and Starfox Assault, Super Monkey Ball 2. I’ve never tried it myself, but I’ve seen videos of it seemingly working. Hopefully, those can be looked into and improved upon with fully modded versions and added in-game connection setup menus.

This is absolutely amazing! I love seeing what the GC community can do, and bringing internet to not only more people but also to games that never had it is absolutely amazing!

OMG! This and Flippy drive (WHEN?!) I do a Four Swords set up at one convention I help with, but if I could do a Double Dash setup as an alternative at some point or even at a couple other conventions that Four Swords wasn't popular at, I think people would go nuts for it! I was hoping Flippy drives would be for sale by now, so I could use them for the Gameboy Player at said convention. I Absolutely love the fact that people are still making Game Cubes relevant. And I just joined their discord looking to see if Swiss will work on the flippy drives, and yes! So the potential is awesome!

Yeah, THE big con for me is that this uses Serial Port 2. Some people have DOL-001s that lack Serial Port 2, and DOL-101s pretty much all lack it completely. Meanwhile my SP1 is completely empty and unused, and I have no reason to put an M.2 Loader in there as I have a GC Loader HW2. I'd love a broadband adapter replacement that goes in SP1. I LOVE the concept of expanding GameCube with online support patches though. I could just imagine a sophisticated online matchmaking feature being added to Mario Kart: DD that matches MK Wii's (as opposed to direct connection), for example. Nintendont on the Wii is also capable of emulating the Broadband Adapter support using Wi-Fi, so the overall accessibility of GameCube Online should improve with time.

Saturday Tito?? 😂. Always look forward to your videos 👍

Could something similar be done for the dreamcast? Do you think that you could do an all in one dreampi and broadband adapter?

This is a pretty cool idea, but I need the SD2SP2 for my setup, so I probably won't be going for this until they release a version that allows it to function alongside it. Glad to see that the GC modding community is still thriving though!

Having learned my lesson by not having the Dreamcast BBA, I snatched a GC one when they were still readily available. Same with the DC Vga cable, so I paid $15 on sale for the GC Component cable when I could. I'd love to see one of these for the Dcreamcast.

The Price is great, it does what the real Broadband adapter do but with more "homebrewish" stuff, the only downside imo, it's this ETH2GC use the Serial Port 2 and not the Serial Port 1. So all user that use the SD2SP2 have to found another way to use Swiss. Maybe a Serial Port 1 version can be make later, and I suppose it's also because the community have better knowledge of how the Serial Port 2 work. After saw that, I thinking that a new Broadband adapter can be do for the Dreamcast as a replacement of the Original Broadband adapter that expensive to, but I think the projet need more stuff, to do incompatibility with games that only work with Modem and not with Broadband !

The required cable depends on the specific hardware. It will probably require the same cable type as the original BBA or an old PC. Realistically it doesn't matter because most modern equipment auto-adapts to the cable type. If your setup has a network switch from the past 20 years either cable will be fine.

It might be a question more related to swith than to this adapter: Does the combination of this new adapter and swith offer more or the same functionality than swith and the original adapter?

Awesome to see this come to market. I hope to see a Dreamcast version in the future.

I'm not particularly confident in my own capabilities with soldering and modding and I'm kinda broke, so the fact that i have a newer revision of the DOL-001 which doesnt have the serial port necessary for this mod is a huge blow. Makes me feel like I wasted my time with this particular GameCube being modded, since the convenience of this mod for ripping my own games. I'll have to wait for the M.2 loader to be able to load Swiss and for this project to be able to be utilized via the memory card slot before I can get the whole thing working close to optimally, and even then, it'll look likely far less clean than an original DOL-001 with the full kit. I'm not mad at Extrems or WebHDX or anything here, i just didn't know what was going on with my own GameCube til my friend who did the modding for me showed me what was up with my model. To quote a great show, "That's rough, buddy."

Tito one of my two gamecubes is having trouble reading discs, do you know any good options to fix or replace parts for that? From what I read online it sounds like the laser is getting weak

turns out i have the DOL-001 USA model with the AV port and without the Serial Port 2's socket installed in the motherboard. what the heck can i do to fix this, since the motherboard still has the solder holes for the SP2?

Will flippy drive be able to run swiss to combine with this for a plug in play solderless experience? Or would i still need something else to run swiss to emulate the broadband adapter?

Great!! Now we just need those WaveBird receiver cheap replacements. 🙏

Do these features and enhancements in Swiss function with the official broadband adaptor?

Is there a reason why they went with SP2 for the port instead of SP1 like the original adapter used? Or is that just because of the M.2 loader that's still being worked on?

3:49 - Personally, I wouldn't modify either, and just use some sort of standoff, like washers or pieces of rubber, to make a tiny gap between the GBP and GC.

Wow incredible. My dream for this is online multiplayer being added to the GameCube Mario parties

whatever happened to the m.2 loader that was teased almost a year ago?

Obvs this is amazing and I'm totally getting one. but I would have thought they would have gone for a WIFI adapter over an Ethernet connection? Thoughts?

Currently I have a SD2SP2 that holds all of my settings for Swiss and am loading Swiss through my GC-Loader. Am I going to be required to switch to a memory card adapter (a fine solution since I've got a Memcard) or is there a feature that's been added to Swiss that I've missed?

My biggest con is that it doesn't look like a stock Gamecube anymore and I don't ever buy mods that change the aesthetic for my consoles. I wish they gave an option that would route the RJ45 plug through the broadband section of console so it doesn't ruin the aesthetics.

I wonder if they could add support for wifi enabled microcontrollers like the pico w so you could do this stuff over wifi.

whats the difference between the sidecar and lite? is it just form factor or did i miss that part of the video

this should use SP1 as that is only used by the official adapter, no need to save it for something else, this would also retain the SD2SP2 functionality

What is the difference between the light and sidecar versions? Like what can the side car do that the lite cant?

Dang, I didn't realize the BBA was that expensive! I've had one for ages to netboot homenrew back in the day. We've come so far!

great video as always, btw i think a con is the fact that you have throw away the sp2sd if you have one already...

the downsiode i see is that version uses the SP2 connector, and mine is already in use with the SD2SP2 adapter

The cons are that both versions take up space on the *side* of the Gamecube (would be nice to have it on the back). Also that it takes up the SP2 slot so you can’t have an SD card there. But I absolutely LOVE that this is a thing. I have BBA’s for all my Gamecubes and I’ve been missing online support in the homebrew scene. Hoping this will spark a flame on that front😄

The con is that it uses the serial port which I already use for an extra SD card. Wake me up when they come out with an adapter that fits in the expansion port that the OG adapter fits in. :)

Why did they make it for the serial 2 port instead of the serial 1 port like the og?
