The GameCube controller adapter for the Nintendo Switch works natively plugged into the Dock.
A Raspberry Pi Pico with picoboot and either an official SD Card adapter or an SD-Gecko (both go in memory card slot), or an SD2SP2 (goes in serial port 2 on the bottom, doesn't work on DOL-101 GameCube). Requires soldering, but relatively easy.

Have you see the RP2040 based GameCube modchip?
- I installed the Pico Boot mod into my Gamecube. I can now finally boot into Swiss without a disc.

Nintendo 64 Java
There's an open source effort to build one with a Pi Pico: https://github.com/kbeckmann/PicoCart64/tree/develop
I have no clue how tested it is, and README mentions only up to 2MB ROMs, but it is a start.

Another open source flash cartridge based on the RP2040 chip
The main idea is to make the cartridge as simple and cheap as possible. Contrary to Konrad's idea of multiplexed PSRAM chips and two RP2040, I decided to use one SPI flash memory chip and one RP2040. Modern flash chips allow to erase and flash data more than 100,000 times, which is more than enough for home use for many years. Since the RP2040 does not support SPI flash chips larger than 16MB, it was decided to use page mode with page switching through the Extended Address register (EA register).

Raspberry Pico-based 100-Msps logic analyzer
The mentioned N64 cartridge is most likely this project:
https://github.com/kbeckmann/PicoCart64/
The creator [0] tweets about it frequently, in particular this thread [1]. It uses the cool RP2040 Stamp [2] mini-board with FlexyPins [3], a very interesting way of putting putting boards with castellated edges (that's the patterned edge with contacts built right into it) onto a carrier board.
