Re: Gamecube won't power on! Bought from Badassconsoles.com

The PayPal dispute took time to process. If you want an apology then I am sincerely sorry for the misunderstanding caused by my actions and stupidity. To be honest I thought I was the one being scammed because my gamecube worked for a day then just shut down and know that I know what the problem is...

Re: Replacing CPU in gamecube

BUT: Games are running faster on a XBOX with higher CPU!!! I own one! 128MB RAm and 1GHZ CPU -> Games are faster then with 733MHZ! I think this would be the same Prob here!!! That's because some games are coded in ways that bump up against the limitations (I'm looking at you, Halo 2). Most GameCube...

But that's only with a $150 composite video cable and the original gc model, right? Or is there a cheaper one one can buy?

Most component cables are $50 less, been in the wrong business.

Re: Installing WKF help

I installed one a Megadrive for someone the other week and it isn't for the feint of heart. First you have to remove the DVD-ROM connector from the motherboard by cutting the top half off and then extracting each of the pins one by one. After that you have the option of sliding the pins back through...

No. That is the end of it and adding qualifications such as that doesn't change I can't plug in my carts which in my eyes is a deficiency.

Let's see , it has a cart slot inside, it plays every N64 game with original hardware.

Yep that makes it a real N64 player.
Can I plug in my carts without taking it apart? Nope.

Same case with the 3DS and being able to run flashcarts. If Nintendo did things right the Wii U side of things is locked down so that the Wii mode won't allow anything to escape.

First time you crack open a cube the thermal pads typically hold the heatsink in place but running the thing 24/7 without the screws is a bad idea.
