Pico Cartridge Controller

a game controller with a raspberrry pi pico chip. 6 buttons, and a slot that reads cartridges. Cartridges are just USB storage sticks in a square shape.
No design changes were made; the project is still empty because no ACUs are currently available for AI execution.
Remaining work:
  • Define the Raspberry Pi Pico/Pico W choice and USB-host support for reading cartridge storage.
  • Specify the cartridge’s USB connector, square mechanical format, insertion alignment, and retention.
  • Add six buttons, power circuitry, USB protection, and programming/debug access.
  • Capture and verify the schematic, then design the PCB outline and cartridge slot.
Once ACUs are available, I can build this from the schematic through PCB layout.
Use Pico USB host
Choose cartridge connector
Add button inputs
