The Triforce is an arcade system board developed jointly by Namco, Sega, and Nintendo, with the first games appearing in 2002. The name "Triforce" is a reference to Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda series of games, and symbolized the three companies' involvement in the project. The system hardware consists of a retail GameCube board, with a microcontroller-based "Media Board", which connects to a GD-ROM drive or a NAND cart reader. As with most arcade systems, each Triforce game has its own custom peripherals and functions.
The main Dolphin branch cannot currently play Triforce games. See the forum and the Triforce Branch for details about development.
