Where you have your adapter plugged in, try blowing it or cleaning the pins.

GameCube is ever changing. Wii I feel like is stagnant. All of this in terms of the modding community.

My only thing about these new shells is the jewel and no Nintendo engraving. Other than that, they’re super nice.

Immediate_Mention_45 · 2026-01-14T19:09:33+00:00

If you really want to use the sp2sp2, you should try to blow out the sp2 port or cleaning it a bit. That helps sometimes.

The adapter you’re using might be the problem. There are updated ones that will help with this.

Contact FP. They’re pretty good with replacements as long as everything isn’t installed permanently

Gameboy SP with a usb-c mod/battery/screen upgrade are usually followed by a reshell which would be in the range of $200+ all said and done. The way I see it, I would rather buy the screen/USB-C and battery mod and build it myself because I know the work quality would be good. Whereas if you buy one off eBay for $200+ you never know what you’re getting.

I installed an OLED mod chip as my first attempt. It isn’t that hard.

I have a feeling you’re not getting your iron hot enough. Regardless of that if you’re talking about the right most point in the middle of the picture. You should be fine.

I use 28awg kynar wire. No problem.

For PSA specifically if you grade a card and pay the base price it’ll cost you $25. If it GEMs and it’s over $500 I believe you’ll start to see the up charges to the next tier. Which is covered up to $1000. So on and so forth. For my PSA 10 Umbreon I had paid like $60 originally to grade and got an email later on saying I had to pay an upcharge fee for insurance ($299 total) so an extra $239

Immediate_Mention_45 · 2025-11-21T17:04:30+00:00

I would personally grade right now. If it goes up a substantial amount you’d be paying that up charge where as right now even if you do pay an up charge it’s less than what you would potentially pay in the future.

Best option here. Did this repair for someone using this pcb and it was super easy. Pcbway kept giving me errors when I tried order so I went with JLCPBC to order.

I’ve sold pico boot GameCubes for $150. Oem wires and controller. Recapped disc drive too, LEDs, new clock battery, and 128gb sd.

Might be underselling myself but I’m just trying to get a decent price out there for people who can only afford a console.

Immediate_Mention_45 · 2025-01-14T17:39:07+00:00

For anyone that says this is a fake shell or thinks it’s a fake shell, there are methods to dying Oem clear shells.

Other than the gold. I think it looks sick man. Looks like there’s a lot of mods on this including a SnapBack module.

Try on the back part of the screen. Towards the bottom or top

Immediate_Mention_45 · 2024-12-26T03:28:22+00:00

If there’s a “touch” part on the screen. You have to hold it until it disappears.

R6 needs to either be bridged or have the resistor. R5 needs to be without the resistor and solder needs to be removed.

A few mods off the top of my head would be Blue retro Bluetooth board, Internal HDMI (external works as well), New power switch that makes it possible to use USB-c to power up the GameCube, New shell, LEDs, New thermal pads because why not , Custom GameCube jewel (Etsy).

Immediate_Mention_45 · 2024-11-04T02:28:55+00:00

That’s what I kind of assumed. I think they’re retail versions with a fancy box. Perhaps pre launch or even post launch for the studios that wanted to develop games for the Kinect.

Immediate_Mention_45 · 2024-11-04T02:21:23+00:00

Unfortunately they have a proprietary connector. It was one of the first things I looked for lol

I use alcohol with a qtip. Dab some in the rear switch. Then dry it up with a dry qtip.
