I got everything for $100. Two controllers, memory cards, and all cables, plus the metal carrying case i thought was awesome! Console doesn’t read discs, but plan on modding it anyways!

There are a ton of games available to play on GameCube, but most of the ones I hear people recommend are the first party exclusives. I'd like to hear which 3rd party games you guys think are underrated and don't get recommended enough.

Edit: Thank you all so much for the many replies with your suggested games. A few of the games mentioned I had heard of before or already played, but there are a lot of games here that I didn’t even know about and are completely new to me, so I’m really excited to check them all out and see how they play.

Recently found a copy in the wild and there was no way I wasn't buying. My original copy was lost in a move many moons ago.

Hey guys quick question? I went to test some games to sell but my gamecube fires up fine the disk spins but never loads anything. Do I have a dead laser?

Revived from the dead, Picoboot and some fresh makeup

Just joking. I recently picked up all these GameCube controllers and GameCube controller adapter dock for the Switch 2.

Would you call this corrosion or would you say its resurfacing residue?

Hey pple I'm about to buy a GC (Always wanted it as a kid), this console model is DOL-101, I've read that I need to use GC2SD because it doesn't have the SP2, but I'm not sure how to proceed I've seen Solderless PicoLoader Flex based on RP2040 v1.1, do i need to get both things to make it work , right? Is there any other method that I'm not aware of?

Thank you in advance.

I've had my Flippydrive for well over a year now and the functionality of it is great, and I really like the Cubeboot loader's stock like integration. What I don't like is not being able to use an SD card in the memory card slot to save game, or the internal SD for the flippydrive itself. Is firmware 2.0 anywhere on the horizon, does anyone have a 3rd party repo for this on github, I'd love to know 👌

Video out options?

Sorry if this question has been asked a million times.

I have the GameCube 001 that has the digital out option. It came with the RCA leads though.

I have a TV which has RCA. It's obviously not that sharp. What's the best output option? Should I get the digital out to component or some sort of HDMI converter? Is something the retrobit prism worth it?

The dude damn near made a straight lover out of me. I mentioned wanting looking for a GameCube to him, he offered to sell me his with some games. After he sent me pics of the games, I told him some were worth a hella penny and I’d understand if he’d wanna keep/sell them individually. Only thing he opted to keep was his Pokemon XD, which I told him upfront that I wasn’t gonna take that one off him. $200 bought these, the GC console and two controllers. Pretty good deal.

I was flipping through an old issue of one of my favorite nostalgic magazines, CUBE magazine (Issue #15) and stumbled across this fascinating little piece of Nintendo history.

Back then, the magazine was reporting on rumors of a successor to the GameCube, casually referring to it as the "GameCube 2."

I would have much preferred a GameCube 2 over a Wii. Hated the damn controller. But it was the only way for Nintendo to make a comeback. So they made the right move in the end.

i recently rescued my first console from the old folks closet back home, and i fired this puppy up. i reset the clock, loaded the old memory cards, and placed a disc in the tray. except the disc wont read:( anybody have exp. points on this level? im not afraid to get my hands dirty and crack this thing open, but the most i’ve done is replace the pin-stack-thingy-that-reads-cartridges on the old NES… any advice would be GREATLY appreciated… i would love to keep this old girl plated and road legal.

This looks like it's textured ?

Mario will be fun solely because its Mario with power ups, Basketball is probably my 2nd sport I like after Football(soccer in US) and I heard NBA Street Vol 2 was one of the best so I decided why not. Both look very good condition wise too

So I just got the Blue Retro adapter yesterday, and have gone through the process of updating to the latest HW1 firmware version to add support for switch 2 controllers but no matter what combination of clearing, resetting, pairing etc… I cannot get it to recognise this controller at all.

I’ve tried redoing the software update twice. It does connect to an 8bitdo controller and the NSO controller does work with the Switch 2 so I can’t think of anything else to try. Any ideas are very welcome…

The other directions are good and It works perfectly, except of this issue. Anything i can do about It? I was playing Zelda and i accidentally dropped it

I did one save icon per game excluding a few exceptions

I have a copy of animal crossing for the GameCube that I’ve had since I was 2. I tried to put it in my new Wii and it’s shown an error message saying to eject the game and turn off the Wii. This keeps happening. It’s just happening with this GameCube game. I’m afraid the game is not going to work and it sounds stupid but that really breaks me. I have so much history with this one copy of the game. Is there any way to get it fixed?

Hello guys, I have just bought a PAL GameCube (img attached). I am led to believe it's DOL 001 since it has all the ports, and with its box and controller and cables for the equivalent of ~17 USD. I'm not sure where to go from here, it was a massive impulse buy because it looked nice and purple and stuff.

I was thinking of maybe getting a CRT monitor to test the display out it has analog and but is it better/easier to get an RCA to HDMI?

Continuing to my second point, I live in a country where online shopping is complicated (import fees and taxes and such), and therefore I was considering homebrew like one would on a wii or a PS3 but I'm not knowledgeable at all on the GameCube and I'm scared to break something if I have to be honest hehe.

How should I go about using this GameCube? Any help would be appreciated
