# PicoPAC
|
|
Flashcart for Videopac / Odyssey 2 based on Wilco2009 Videopac-microSD card project
|
|
Based on SD card by Wilco2009: https://github.com/wilco2009/Videopac-micro-SD-Cart , my greetings for his fantastic job!
|
|
|
|
Since now, tested only on a G7400 (so i didn't test the exROM games too), but i'll test with other Videopac asap.

PicoPAC is a multicart DIY yourself based on cheap "PURPLE" Raspberry Pi Pico clone, easy to build and not expensive.
|
|
**WARNING!** "purple" Pico has not the same pinout of original Raspberry "green" ones, you MUST use the clone or you may damage your hardware.
|
|
|
|
**NOTE** filename are "fixed" and hardcoded in firmware to match the "selectgame.bin" menu. You should find all the ROM with matching filenames following this site https://rene-g7400.datatex.nl/
|
|
Please don't forget to upload the here provided "selectgame.bin" file in flash!!!!

Kicad project and gerbers files for the pcb are in the PCB folder, you need only a diode and a push buttons for resetting the cart if needed or want restart.
|
|
Add you pico clone, and flash the firmware ".uf2" in the Pico by connecting it while pressing button on Pico and drop it in the opened windows on PC.
|
|
After flashed with firmware, and every time you have to change your ROMS repository, you can simply connect the Pico to PC and drag&drop "BIN" files into.
|
|
But remember that only games already in menu will be seen by the cart.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Even if the diode should protect your console, **DO NOT CONNECT PICO WHILE INSERTED IN A POWERED ON CONSOLE!**
