Pretty sure pizza time made up half the monthly earnings of the restaurant in its last few months and it was only every 2 weeks.
It depends on the gender you pick.
Just realised I wrote underground twice/o\
reTHAWed is for American wasteland
Sadly never heard of any mods for the console versions :c
There's a few others for other games but these are the most active ones afaik
Not rom hacks but there's mods for a bunch of the PC ports.
Main ones are thug pro which is basically everything from all the games ported into the underground 2 engine with a focus on freeplay and multiplayer.
Then there's reTHAWed which is similar but for underground 2 but more casual focused.
I won't lie seeing this was most of the motivation behind my post c:
Idk this is easier
At least I assume GCU's Bluetooth side is handled the same as proGCC with passing inputs across from the rp2040 to the esp32 side.
Oh yeah I do get that, I'm just kind of thinking out loud on here of approaches in my head.
Also if you were gonna make a Wii back end for GC ultimate you would be looking to make it work on ESP32 so getting it on those would be a common goal for both ideas.
It'd be a really dumb approach to this but I do have an old RPi3 in a drawer collecting dust, this could be bodged into a very over engineered and power hungry adapter.
Won't lie at least from a quick scan much of how this doing what it's doing is going over my head.
I get functionally what it's doing but I don't think I have the knowledge to port this work elsewhere.
It sounds like the simplest approach in my head but yeah a proper back end in HOJA would be cool.
From some digging I'm not finding anything for connecting to a Wii either.
Everyone wants to use a Wii remote for DIY stuff but not make one...
Not an expert at the software side of this but I've managed to make stuff like this work in the past.
I could definitely wire up a GCC port to a pico W and 3D print a little shell though.
Wanted to make the ultimate TO box for turning on wiis a while ago and I think being able to control the system menu would be a neat edition too.
If any libraries exist to connect a pico W to a Wii I think it wouldn't be too hard for me to make a GCC to Wii adapter with some spare parts lying around.
Tbf I have some random old esp32s lying around as well idk if the old joybus arduino library can run on those though. Never tried it.
I've made the decision to lower Project D's venue fee to £15 from £20. Sign up already!

This is cool to see implemented but also oh god no please don't release this /o\
As someone who's run a bunch of netplay tournaments I know this would spiral out of control.
ProjectD Project Plus tournament happening on 17/05/2025 in Birmingham in the UK on the 17th of May
UK P+ is back with the biggest tournament since NotFete back in 2023!!!
Happening May 17th in Birmingham! Featuring both Melee and Rivals 2 side brackets!
More info at start.gg/ProjectD
Because of scheduling you may only sign up to melee OR rivals, not both! If this changes I'll post an update.
