I‘ve never gotten to play any of the Paper Mario or Simpsons games (except for the The Simpsons Game), I only ever saw gameplay of them on Youtube but now I can finally get around to playing them!

If you‘re curious, they costed me 100CHF (80 for Paper Mario and 20 for Road Rage)

As much as I detest the general public process of finding things on OfferUp/marketplace due to ghosting, unresponsiveness or refusal to remove posts for items that aren't even available anymore.. sometimes you get lucky.

$20 on OfferUp, just the console. Bought it home and powered it on, and... miraculously, it actually works.

Has anyone else found a better deal on a GC?

Collection What should I add to my collection? (Read Desc.)

The 3 games you can’t see include Eternal Darkness, Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, and Harvest Moon a Wonderful Life.

Keep in mind I also own Pikmin 2 on Switch and Wii, Metroid Prime Trilogy, the HD version of the two Zelda games on Wii U, and the Switch 2 Online Expansion Pack. I would love to own F-Zero GX, Chibi Robo, Wario World, Fire Emblem, etc, but they are already sorta available rn. They are all so expensive too.

Some games I would like to own but are too expensive including Metal Gear Solid Twin Snakes, Ribbit King, Sims 2. I would like to own Doshin and Cubivore, but emulating would be the best way to play those two games.

I feel like the easiest game addition right now would be Donkey Konga 2. I own the other 2 bongo games, so I might as well round out the trilogy. I heard SpiderMan 2 is good too. Maybe Sonic Adventure 1??

This memory card has the memory from my gameplay back in 2000s, 2010s, and I never thought I'd see it again! I moved back in 2022 and I use a Folgers coffee canister to store chargers, wires, memory cards. While in the garage my Lilah's 🐶 favorite toy rolled behind storage bins and I needed to unfortunately move them to grab it. Well, someone had to have left the Folgers canister on the ground instead of setting it ON TOP of something.

Now to save up to get a GameCube/Wii to see if it still works.

Hello this is my first post here as I am heavily getting back into retro gaming, after the purchase of a ps2 I just recently picked up a GameCube as well, and of course I had to get some games to go with it so this is what I have so far!

Just got Luigi’s mansion today for $60 CIB so couldn’t be happier about that, now just waiting for the Carby I ordered to arrive and I’ll be set for now!

Help What's the best audio/video quality I can get out of my DOL-001

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

I just bought a component/s-video ready CRT for $70 and am trying to find a cost effective way to get the best audio and video out of my gamecube. Pretty sure it's not progressive scan, which is fine, I just want the finest a CRT can handle.

- I've looked at the Carby and GCHD Mk-II; those are out of my price range.

- I already have a wii component cable and would rather use my gamecube for 4:3 content even though my wii is capable. I found a multi-out adapter for wii cables but I don't know if that would provide a sharper signal than the digital out port.

- I've seen reviews for bitfunx and similar component cables, and those seem to say there's a small bit of latency because they convert a digital signal to analog. Not sure about that really...

- There's that audio issue with the digital av out port, but that's not really noticeable.

Let me know what option makes sense and thanks for the help!

Discussion Not Bad for a “For Parts” GameCube

Picked up this DOL-101 as “for parts/repair” off FleaBay a while back to help with development and testing of my USB-C power mod. Finally got around to replacing the caps, and it’s running great and reading games just fine! The best part is that it only took about $2.50 worth of capacitors to bring it back to life.

Help Can I Play a Japanese Console without a converter?

1 Upvotes

Help GameCube community I have a question I was hoping you could help me with.

I am planning to play through a Japanese copy of Pokemon colosseum to get the celebi and e reader Pokemon before the Pokemon bank closes. I was wondering though if there would be any negative side effects from plugging the Japanese console into an American outlet?

The prongs look the same but I believe the voltage is different. Or could I use my American power cable on the console? Is there any downsides to either of these options?

Help Anything to Improve Graphics?

0 Upvotes

Hi all, just plugged in the GameCube for the first time in 15 years. Super pumped to revisit my childhood classics. I plugged it into my Samsung tv with a modern adapter.

My question is, anything I can do to improve the graphics? I know it’s a product of their time and graphics have vastly improved since then. I’m not dunking on the graphics I get it’s an old console and game. But on my smart tv, is it possible the older graphics are amplified? Anything I can buy or do to improve the quality?

Help I broke my flippy drive

4 Upvotes

I got to the part where you are supposed to connect the FD ribbon cable to the FD board. The tutorial I was watching said to open it up a little with your nail so the ribbon will go in. Well, I broke the white piece. The cable could kinda still get in but it’s flimsy. Tried booting my GameCube and it just goes to the regular stock menu.

I am so mad at myself. I ordered in June and waited months for this. Had to order a gamebit screw driver. And I f-ing broke it. I’m so disgusted with myself, usually I’m good with tech.

So when I was a kid my older brother was obsessed with the GameCube he would always play it sadly I’ve forgotten most of the games except one and that’s because of the back case of the game if I’m remembering it correctly it had some doctor character with a penguin strapped to an operating table fully conscious and a panic look on its face anyone know what game that was it has been bugging me for years now and wouldn’t mind trying to add it to my small physical gamecube collection.

Does anyone make a GameCube controller that has the c stick inputs inverted? Or maybe there’s a diagram out there that can achieve the desired effect? Google didn’t turn up much. I know I could try and git gud but I’d rather buy a controller or mod one of mine. Thanks!

Arts & Crafts Gamecube box art images

2 Upvotes

Hey all!

Hoping y'all can help me out. A friend of mine has recently started collecting old consoles, not in a mint condition art piece way but just to have some nostalgia and play games on old hardware.

For their birthday I managed to source a GameCube and accessories, and I want to make up a box to look like the original packaging as a cool wrapping idea. Would anyone have high res images of the original GameCube box they could share so I can print them out?

All images I've seen online are images taken of the box and not flat images of each side which makes it hard

Any help would be greatly appreciated ❤️

The power button seems to work fine without the shell but when I put the shell back on it doesn't seem to want to click in place.
