How can I make authentic chiptune sound via waveform generator?

(using google translator, so sorry for mistakes)
Hello everyone!
I'm trying to create a VST plugin for composing authentic chiptune music. But the main problem I've encountered is that the Waveform Generator uses (as far as I understand) a regular synthesizer, which isn't really suitable for authentic chiptune.
I think I heard that you can adjust a certain parameter that, roughly speaking, makes the "ladder" waveform rather than smooth.
For better understanding, I'll leave a link to a YouTube video where the waveform I'm trying to achieve is shown at 0:54 and 3:46. If you help me, it would be very kind of you.

Hey, i can figure that out in a few hours, i guess i can write a quick and dirty custom c++ node for bitcrushing and downsampling. Send me a dm if you like !
EDIT
This is what i can offer
Already playing SMB Theme haha

@Ben-Catman I send you a DM. Can you help me pls?

Tbh I also wanted too add waveform editor (just like Namco163 NES add-on). Rn trying figure out how to done it. But if you have any ideas how to do it, you can post your assumptions.

you need to be more specific on what you want to achieve? i am glad to help, as this community has also helped me a lot, but i need more information?
Btw shall i do a written tutorial on how to combine c++ nodes with your project ? Would the community be interested in that ?

more useful documentation is always welcome.
Maybe use an Air windows C++ FX as your example...
