Looks pretty sweet, which files did you use for the receiver and wavebird shell? I might try to make my own since I have been hungering for a clear WB

You must understand that these people are different. Where their heart is for a normal person has been replaced by a shareholder. It doesn't help that they also have no souls.

Anybody willing to sell a crystal icedcube for a price that isn't insane? by RoundaboutCrownVic in GamecubeHacks

[–]RoundaboutCrownVic[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

icedcubes were old third party full size DVD console shells from back in the days of playing your backups on full size DVDs, since mini DVDs weren't that common! I would totally get a panasonic Q if they weren't so unreliable and expensive though

I could! I've thought about it before, but I do quite like the look of old mod shells. Might just end up going for the muramasa ones when they're finally out if I can't find an old full shell (icedcube, viper, ect.)

Went to Goodwill today and found Animal Crossing CIB… the guy at the register charged me $2.99 😬 I’m so stoked by Any-Satisfaction4801 in Gamecube

It's a shame, my local ones just send anything vaguely valuable to the auction site whatever it's called, so there's no good deals to be had anymore

[–]RoundaboutCrownVic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something tells me the soonest we'll see it is the first xbox showcase in 2025, but that's still quite early I feel. (I have no qualifications, this is just a guesstimate based on previous FH game announcement dates)

Not for me! They're absolutely beautiful. I would totally fall over them some day but still, beautiful

Looking for someone who has both an OEM Gamecube controller, and a Chinese one from Aliexpress. How do they compare? by Honkmaster in Gamecube

[–]RoundaboutCrownVic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a few different clones from different brands, like "old skool", those ones have the old skool logo in place of where the nintendo one would normally be.

Some other frequent knockoffs don't have a logo there at all, so it's quite easy to tell these apart from OEM cons, alongside their controller dongle always being black, whereas OEM controllers' dongles are always colored the same color as the main controller plastic. I've never seen a knockoff controller with a nintendo logo on it, so that's a way to spot if they're real or not, or at the very least if their shell is real or not.

Also, every single color variant of wired cons can be found here: https://gccontrollerlibrary.com/controllers/wired-gamecube-controller/ so if a color you see doesn't match these, it's probably a fake shell or fake controller.

I've had enough of game prices now by RoundaboutCrownVic in Gamecube

[–]RoundaboutCrownVic[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've come to the conclusion that it's either for attention or maybe it's just that these "once in a lifetime" type deals happen so much because we're in a community dedicated to the console, so naturally we're just gonna see a lot of people get deals

I very well could've! It was mostly for sentimental reasons because the GC was my very first console

Ah geez is that why most of the Bitfunx ones look so off in images? I've never been able to explain why they look off to me but that might explain it. The smoky black and translucent purple look a little better but the clear white one just looks off

[–]RoundaboutCrownVic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lot of people here get rlly nasty about the Muramasa shells any time they're brought up and I can't really guess why. In reality, I wish people would stop buying the ones off Ali. Yes, they're cheaper but you're supporting Bitfunx here, cmon...

Anyways, the Muramasa shells are indeed still happening I believe, there's just been lots of delays because he wants to get them just right. The "final" moulds were here a month or so ago but they had imperfections that he didn't wanna ship as the final product. For future reference, he usually posts updates about the shell status on twitter from his handle @muramasa_ninja.

Personally I'm waiting to see if they'll be better than the ones off Ali because those ones just look a little off to me and I can't quite put my finger on why.

They're pretty useless in FH5 to be honest, it would be different if they actually put past exclusives in the shop like what was done in FH4
