What is the Triforce Arcade System?

The Triforce was an arcade system board developed jointly by Nintendo, Sega, and Namco. The name 'Triforce' references Nintendo's iconic symbol and the three-way partnership.

Why is it so cool? Because the hardware is practically identical to the Nintendo GameCube! This means that with a modded Wii (which has built-in GameCube hardware), we can run these arcade classics natively without emulation, resulting in perfect performance.
