Features and Functionality
The Nintendo GameCube Microphone connects to the console using either of the two Memory Card slots. Near the top of the microphone is a blue button that, while held, allows it to receive vocal inputs that are interpreted by the game. All Nintendo-developed games use the Games Speech SDK developed by ScanSoft for speech recognition.[1]
Copies of Odama were bundled with a Microphone Holder (DOL-025), which allows the microphone to be mounted on the back of a Nintendo GameCube Controller while in use.
