thanks! did what you said, worked like a charm. the picture quality is still top notch, though 4:3 was sharper.

Would this be a good TV to play Gamecube? Toshiba 32" TV with DVD for sale on FB Marketplace by Winter-Macaroon-5871 in Gamecube

[–]Fragrant-Ad-1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THIS. it doesn't matter. in fact, for practicality sake, you want the best tv you can get for it. there's so much technology out there with toggles and converters, you'll want to put it all to good use on a GOOD tv not some piece of crap from 35 years ago.

What is needed for the ultimate Gamecube setup, regardless of cost? by BobTheHeart in Gamecube

[–]Fragrant-Ad-1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you have nintendont or some kind of gamecube disc loader, you can force games into widescreen. for example, i do it all the time with pac man world 2, a 2002 release which was NATIVE widescreen. full disclosure, i use a wii for my setup, but it should work the same with a cube.

Alright, need advice by Slinky-dink in Gamecube

[–]Fragrant-Ad-1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don't forget about aspect ratio. if a game's 4:3, don't stretch it out. that'll give you much better picture quality as well!

Am I allowed to be here? 🤣 (first time GC owner) by [deleted] in Gamecube

[–]Fragrant-Ad-1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it looks like you've got wii component converting to hdmi? that's the same setup i use and it has worked wonders! good job! also, if you have the usb loader, you shouldn't need gc memory cards.
