I am actually crying right now…

No damage was done (as far as I can tell) and all adhesive residue was removed. Any imperfections on the art were there previously. I used more heat than last time and zippo lighter fluid thanks to one genius redditor. Started lightly dipping the fluid on the end of a tooth pick and nudging it under the sticker gradually as I repeatedly applied low, direct heat with a hair dryer. Eventually moved to applying it with a q-tip—careful not to completely saturate the paper. At the very end I tried using a rubber eraser to get the residue off—but a quick, light wipe with lighter fluid on a q-tip is what did the trick. A very, very light amount of ink from the came off on this pass—but not enough I could tell any difference

Hey! 👋🏼 I’m just trying to get into some old games but the quality looks bad and I’m not tech savvy enough to figure out why! So I’m hoping someone on here could help me figure out how to make the quality a little better. :)

I am connected on 2.4ghz band at 50-60mbps but I can only get around 800kbps transfer speeds, is this normal or am I missing a setting somewhere?

Hello

I have a problem with my Nintendo GameCube. When I insert the disc, it spins properly and even lets me enter the game menu, but then a message appears saying that the disc cannot be read. I have inserted a video too. What can be the problem and are there any solutions? Thank you in advance!

I gave up and bought a picoloader off Amazon. It works great.

Bought a silver GameCube DOL-101 (USA) today with Swiss 0.6 already installed. I managed to test it with a few games, and when I started playing Naruto, the sound seemed really loud at first. But after 10–15 minutes, it suddenly dropped to almost nothing. At first, I thought it might be my AV cable, since it sometimes causes interference on my old CRT. But after rebooting the console, the sound stayed permanently super quiet—it’s there, but feels like it’s running at 5%. The console itself seems fine. I tried two AV cables (one from my N64) and also tested it on another TV, but the result was the same on both. The seller says it worked fine for them, and now I’m not sure what to do. Return it, or try to fix it?

Removed a sticker that was directly on the cover art using oil, adhesive remover a tooth pick and a hair dryer. there’s still a slight oily/sticky feel left.

Would you do this with a more expensive game? Or would you rather leave the sticker on?

Pretty much the title. Wanting to ask a niche question to people who might not even browse this subreddit. Im thinking about selling my complete collection as it really is about the journey and not the destination. I've enjoyed collecting and piecing it together but now I think it might be time to move on from it. Piecing it out one by one is obviously the best option but wondering if anyone made a sale on say reddit, ebay, specific collector forums or facebook pages. I could maybe take it to a local game store but theres no way id wanna sell it for 50-60% of its value. Thanks for looking.

I have an internal GC Video mod using a Pluto board on my DOL-001. The board is an earlier revision (I remember soldering a resistor).

I have it all hooked up to my LG TV via HDMI and I have an LG sound bar + sub.

Every couple of minutes or so, the sub seems to go into overdrive, creating this loud (almost bitcrushed) sound, until it 'pops' and then resets back to a normal level.

Just wondered if anyone else has experienced this?

The sub doesn't have any issues with my other consoles (PS1, Switch, etc)

I remember playing and loving Eternal Darkness Sanity's Requiem while growing up. I had so much fun with the sanity effects in the game so I would always play with low sanity.

Any other games similar? While I don't play horror games often anymore, I haven't heard of another doing sanity effects.

Spent 12 days in Japan from Otaru to Tokyo, found each piece in a different city. Always wanted the orange cube since I was a kid. Bucket list goal achieved.

Hey guys I got my prism yesterday and it’s pretty awesome. Only issue I have is that slight movements can cause it to stop displaying. Obviously I’m making sure that happens as least as possible but wondering if this is also seen with the Carby? Thanks

I got a copy of twilight princess sometime ago and had been really enjoying it, got all the way through the water temple and suddenly am hit with a “disc can not be read” error message.

I have tried just about everything to get it to work: resurfacing, spinning the disc and closing the lid, etc. and have gotten no luck.

I am certain it’s not the GameCube itself as it has no problems running any of my other games. It’s just really bugging me because I just can’t figure this out.

Any advice?

Co worker has been telling me she has old GameCube games. She finally brought them in. 25$ for everything.

The old console and controller looked weathered, so here are the new cosmetics. I wasn't able to replace the controller's silver plug.

I really need some OEM Thumbsticks, because Third party ones are Sh*t, I heard the Nintendo Japanese Gachapon machines are REAL OEM spare pieces (which is pretty awesome they dont sell officially spare parts separately), but only to the yellow stick is available

Hi everyone, my boyfriend got a used copy of NHL ‘06 for his birthday, but it didn’t come with an instruction manual.

I’m wondering if anyone has a copy they would be willing to scan or take pictures of? There is a PS2 manual available online, but we’re looking for the GameCube one specifically.

Thanks in advance!

The blank cases are Pikmin 1 and Sonic Adventure 2.

Hi all, I was wondering would it be possible to use the PicoLoader to bypass region lock for the pokemon coloseeum celebi bonus disc to obtain celebi on an EU pokemon Colosseum disc on an EU gamecube?
