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.
- Raspberry pi Everdrive ?

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
There is a driver and firmware for sigrok for using the PI Pico that was posted to Hackaday a while back. It hasn't been merged upstream yet but I got it up and running today just fine building it from source. https://github.com/pico-coder/sigrok-pico
