Apparently, now that there's the first four-wire modchip for GameCube, it's possible to run homebrew without going through Phantasy Star Online.

We're sure that the recent Homebrew developments (like GC-Linux) on GC will take advantage of the Viper GC's ability to run code directly from flash memory, instead of the current BroadBand Adaptor/Phantasy Star Online + Loader solution, leading to rapid development of the GC Scene.

So they think people would rather spend X amount of time to program a flashmemory over a parallell cable instead of just sending the program over an ethernet cable directly to the GC?
Or did I miss something completly?

Phantasy Star and Network Adaptor not needed.
