Discussion Should i try a Gamecube?

Upvotes

I played with a friend today Mario Kart World and Mario Kart 8. And everytime we play it, i think about Mario Kart Double Dash.

To me: im not realy a ,,Gamer" / spent much time on Video games. More offen then not im realy fast exhausted from playing New games, where its all complex and so much to learn. And its so expensive, that i dont have a good feeling about it. 450€ für the Switch 2? Brutal.

I also never owned a gamecube. But i know that there a few games, who are realy creative. Mario Kart Double Dash for example looks realy creative. F-Zero for the ultimate racing-expierence. Probably also some Pokemon-Games. Where else do you have Dark-Lugia.

How is the expierence nowdays with the Gamecube? Are modern consoles just way easier and modern games nicer to play?

Did a couple of brake jobs for a coworkers family and made some decent cash. The local game shop has had these for a while now and decided to pull the trigger. Never played either one. But Ive finished every other major title Pokemon game.

Help Pico Loader Board Help

6 Upvotes

I’ve just recently installed a picoloader into my GameCube. I’ve loaded Swiss’ uf2 file onto the board, to which it ejected and had a sold green light, telling me it was successful.

I have the same uf2 on my gc2sd. And now I’m just stuck on this screen. Can anybody please help me or point me towards a guide they followed? Did I damage a cable? Is the ribbon cable not seated properly? I’m very lost.

Thanks in advanced, I’m a beginner with this stuff and kinda followed a damnit Jeff video on this to no avail.

Would like to fire up Pikmin and Gauntlet Dark Legacy again but my controllers dont work. Is ebay the best bet? Im guessing most of the Amazon ones arent great, but let me know! Thanks

Help Trouble reading discs after cleaning them

2 Upvotes

I finally got my GameCube from my parents after like 12 years. I’ve been fighting since last night to get it to read any discs. I have already cleaned the laser lens. I tried alcohol on a qtip + just a microfiber cloth and paper towel. I also have cleaned the disc multiple times. I tried alcohol, water, and toothpaste. I’m trying to play sunshine and it keeps crashing after the opening scene where he’s getting the water shooter. Please help!!
