Xplorer64 + Raspberry Pi Comms

Thinking about the lonely Xplorer64 I have had in the corner of my office for the past 11 months, I thought it time it got some attention.

See above. You can upload your homebrew code to an Xplorer64 using a raspberry pi kinda like so..

I’m using a raspberry pi for its gpio to do the pin twiddling. Xplorer protocol on the N64 version of the cart is broadly the same as the PSX version.

I’ve setup a GitHub repo with the details and the code will be up shortly when it’s more polished.

I’ve done some test code using the amazing N64 Assembly tutorials by Peter Lemon (krom) and had it running via the Xplorer.

Thanks on this to to Tim Schuerewegen, krom and Martin “nocash” Korth for his psx-spex doc
