gc-forever - Gamecube/Wii Forums

as far as I can tell, you can't get a QOOB, WASP, or WiiKey for less than $50 from anywhere I've seen that still has it, does anyone have any recommendation for a good modchip that will let me autoboot SWISS on my GC? I don't want to rely on the laser forever because that's usually the first thing to go in these older consoles

also, this is just something I'm trying to get, does anyone know of a way to change the gamecube intro with a custom-made one?

You won't find anything unfortunately. Your best bet would be using a xeno to boot Swiss and minimize your laser usage. At least for now...

For the boot animation, you will need an IPL replacement like a Qoob. It's very easy to replace this way.

so probably gonna go with the qoob
there any good guides on how to autoboot with swiss & changing the boot animation?

Not really, you'd have to program it all yourself and figure out how to make it into an IPL.
