Questions
How big is the GameCube PCB?
It measures 173 × 231.6 mm and has 4 copper layers, 0.36 mm thick.
What parts does the GameCube use?
175 parts, built around the WS2812B. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the GameCube KiCad files?
From the ARCStudioLtd/GamesCube repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is GameCube.kicad_pcb and its schematic GameCube.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the GameCube design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ARCStudioLtd before reusing the design.
