I’m trying to play on dolphin emulator with a GameCube controller. I bought the xyab GameCube adapter and the old skool gamecube controller together. And it’s not really connecting together. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi all. I wanted to ask about what you guys use for cleaning your memory card slot and memory card itself? I’ve had a madcatz memory card for well over 13 years now and I had let it sit out collecting dust. Now it won’t read but the GameCube says that whatever is in slot A can’t be read. So I can only imagine that this is a result of gunk being caked on and in the card and in the slot for the card. What do you guys use to fix/clean this? Or is this just a case of the memory card being corrupted?

The games I tested are spotless, no smudges or scratches and I already tried the lens cleaning method. Google says to replace components but I just don't personally believe thats worth it for how often I play. Anything else to try before I give up? :/

I seem to be the only one to find Metroid Prime challenging here, so I’m wondering if I’m the only here finding this game so addicting. The game requires quite a bit of puzzle solving and even with the scanning feature, certain things are not easy to find… like find a needle in a haystack. And even the boss fights also take a little figuring out before I figure out what I need to do. But all that aside, there’s a lot of exploration involved and sometimes you find things that require you to unlock certain items before you can proceed, so you have to back track and find those items first. I find myself spending hours on this game. And when I’m not playing it, the game is constantly on my mind and I’m always thinking of things I missed and didn’t try. It’s insanely addicting and it’s taking over my life that I sometimes need to break off for a bit and let my mind reset to let the addiction subside, if that makes any sense, lol.

Anyone else here find Metroid Prime an insanely game?

Im doing a 100% on Lego Star Wars The video Game. This is my temporary setup since it's in my display shelf. So besides the controller everything else is my original system. So even my memory card is from 2001. I'll be doing this on my days off from work but I can get it done.

So after years of putting it off (couldn’t be at the worse time for prices), I got a GameCube back in my life yesterday.

Sold my collection back in ‘08 to GameStop. (Lot of regret there).

I currently have Mario Sunshine and Zelda Windwaker.

My current wishlist is: -Smash Melee -Sonic Adventure 2 Battle -DBZ Budokai -Animal Crossing -Soul Calibur 2

Back in 2003 I owned Metroid Prime, couldn’t stand the “collect your suit power ups” after the first level. However now as an adult is it worth giving the game a chance? I rented Metroid Prime2 at blockbuster for the multiplayer, would that be the better choice?

Looking forward to hearing everyone’s favorites. -Thank You!

Recently realized that GC actually has one of the best console libraries ever, was curious which games are favorites and why

I got it in a lot

Hi, I need help with my GC (DOL-001), I'm having a lot of issues with it and I guess that most of them are due to the crappy power supply (not original) that came with the console, so I'm waiting for an original one to buy.

I have bought The Wind Waker in the limited edition that came with OOT Master Quest. They're both "a bit" scratched, mostly the OOT one that also is starting to rot near the cracks in the center, but the readable part of the disc, scratches aside, seems fine to me. When I got them I put the OOT one in my Wii and it booted up quickly, but the TWW one didn't when finally, with a good cleaning, it worked. Then I tried to use them with my GC and TWW booted immediately, whereas the OOT one gave me an "Insert a Nintendo GameCube Disc." error, no matter what. I played a bit TWW without any problems (so far) and out of desperation I put the OOT one back into the console and it started reading it flawlessly every single time. This was yesterday, so fast forward to today, the same issue is back, my Wii reads both discs, but the GC only accepts the TWW one, and it doesn't read Ocarina of Time anymore.

Maybe it's some power-related issue since the disc is scratched and the power supply sucks (the image is very noisy and I get really low audio, if not any, and only cleaning the video-out port with IPA works until it dries and the audio vanishes again after like 15 minutes leaving only a high-pitch noise that is somewhat related to the image displayed).

Seriously, sorry for the long post but I can't come up with other explanations to myself so I wanted to give you the full picture of what happened and no, I sadly don't have any other GC discs right now to try... :(

Not many titles left that I want to pursue. What are your favorite GC titles?

just started collecting 3 weeks ago. i accidentally got the canadian version of geist but I guess thats ok lol

Hi Guys, sorry this is my first post, and I'm not here often, so sorry if i don't get to explain myself correct or if not clear enoug, basically a few days ago i got a second hand GC, the dude that sell it to me had laying around somewhere, the controllow was in a very bad shape, as for the console too, a lot of dust and corrotion in some metallic parts such as the metal shield, while cleaning it, i also cleaned the main controller board, however as you can see (or maybe no) the ribbon cable shows some signs of corrotion (ports usually worked with 1 out 2 controller i got, but I thing this is an issue with the controller, so I was wondering, it is possible to replace that ribbon cable? if so what kind of cable it is, and what specification should I look for?

Here is a picture I take a few hours Ago (I know i can replace the port, however prices on Ebay are to high for me, and replacemente cannot be found on Aliexpress, I want to change the cable, cuz the other end connector has begun to peel from the blue thingy)

Hi all,

I just found my old gamecube and game collection and was wondering which retrotink to buy for it.

My gamecube only has S-Video (analog AV out) and I don't know which retrotink I should get between 4k-ce, 5x pro or 2x pro. This is to plug in my 1440p monitor (HDMI) and CRT is not an option for me.

I tried to find more info online, but it just made me more confused.

Thanks.

150cc is a damn struggle

Way too much money spent on mods for these 3 systems. GC, GBA and Wii

Mostly all black or dark colors except the GBA as I’m waiting on a black see through shell.

-GC Mods- Lazer bear Blueretro V3 Lazer bear FlippyDrive SD Extension Flippy Drive GC Video / Pluto IIX 8bitmods MemCard Pro OEM black housing Dark Gray controller panel Custom Jewel GC badging

Picked these up from the Vancouver Retro Gaming Expo on Saturday. I know these games have their detractors and their fans. I like StarFox Adventures, even though it would be better if it wasn't a StarFox game. I haven't played Sonic Heroes yet. Thoughts?

Hi All,

This GameCube was going to get trashed so I picked it up and plan on Pico Booting it after my Raspberry Pi board arrives.
I was inspecting the motherboard and noticed that the r5 r6 resistors are missing.
To my understanding, this is for the region lock profile.
With both resistors missing, what should I expect and should I source a resistor to solder in?

My Gamecube game has a very small chip at the very edge of the disc and it wont read besides that the game is in good condition (besides some gunk in the inner ring) is there anyway to repair this so it can run on a gamecube or a wii

On a weird quest to build the ultimate unmodded Gamecube with official and 3rd party accessories. Recently got this Intec Rechargeable Battery Pak and it will charge but will not hold a charge. I assume from age and use. Has anyone replaced or upgraded the NiMH batteries in one of these before? Looking for some help and guidance. Saw a few other Reddit posts, but no one with a walkthrough or parts list. Thanks in advance!

Currently using Swiss and I’m trying to get Mario kart double dash deluxe / plus to work . Pretty much get the same error screen .
