I was just wondering if there are any mods for any systems out there to effectively convert a retail console into a debugging unit for use by their respective SDKs (Wii->RVT Unit, PS2 Retail -> Test/Tool, GameCube->TDEV, etc..) Also, I don't mean like rebug, I mean like having a legit test or debug unit sans the extra ports. I'm mainly curious about the PS2 but other consoles intrigue me. If there aren't, then I'm sorry to have been a waste of time, but I'm desperately looking for a cost efficient hardware debugging solution (as I'm broker than broke right now) ray:
XBox's just need to have 64mb worth of ram soldered in and a debug BIOS either flashed to the TSOP or to a modchip. Pretty easy. I've finished soldering in 32mb of the 64 in an XBox but before I finish I need to pop in a modchip and see if the XBox can recognize what I've put in so far. Doesn't FRAG so that's a plus.
