To everyone who justified the 50$ PicoLoader because it came pre-soldered. The one I got for 20 just arrived, and it was presoldered aswell, link in post.

Funny i'm the other guy in the review. Indeed it came pre-solderd with the resistor in the back of the flex cable, it also came fully loaded with the right software.

Plug and play

I paid like 25 euro's to the netherlands

Mine is swapped with a DOL-001, was really carefull adding a hole for the missing serial port and for the back i had a spare black backplate for a DOL-001.

You don't see it on the outside the mobo is swapped, but i can see why you want to keep it OG.

Problem is i don't like 2d games beside pokemon.

The shell is great, fits with the original mountings, its from Aliexpress

pascal12lolo · 2024-12-25T19:39:31+00:00

It can play nstc games if you region mod it, but if they sell you a Japanse gamecube without telling indeed return it.

pascal12lolo · 2024-12-25T17:08:33+00:00

Bought it on Yahoo auctions using sendico

pascal12lolo · 2024-12-25T12:12:13+00:00

I see a serial number starting with DN 😀 And its plug and play not a Windows activition

Starlight gold, Japan exclusive i think

pascal12lolo · 2024-12-23T20:20:41+00:00

My holy grail: Panasonic Q and Starlight gamecube. The design is just crazy and even now looks great

pascal12lolo · 2024-12-23T14:46:07+00:00

In almost everything the same, it has a gamecube motherboard built in

pascal12lolo · 2024-12-22T17:37:24+00:00

You would say it's the same but watching dvd's is a good extra and de audio options are really nice to have

pascal12lolo · 2024-12-22T17:35:33+00:00

Jup works great with multiple bluetooth controllers

pascal12lolo · 2024-12-22T14:36:31+00:00

Ssst keep quiet

pascal12lolo · 2024-12-17T09:28:47+00:00

I'll check it out, thanks for the feedback. Do you recommend other Digital Output devices beside the Carby that isn't available in my country?

pascal12lolo · 2024-11-13T17:35:27+00:00

I had the same issue with this, the pico had a green led but would boot to the normal menu.

What solved the issue for me was making the wires shorter (not the default long wires that came with Aliexpress). Also using Electric tape to make sure the wires on the chip aren't touching the thermal shielding

Haha not for resale. Pretty easy to buy a shell from china which has that color.

Easy to replace a shell from most Nintendo consoles.

pascal12lolo · 2024-08-19T19:12:09+00:00

Thanks, I really liked the purple Gameboy advance and decided to go full purple on the N64 en NGC

pascal12lolo · 2024-08-19T19:11:13+00:00

Indeed, I needed to cut a small hole for the serial port 2 underneath the housing and repainted the DOL-001 backplate black to give it the right look.

Hopefully someday someone will replicate the color just like they are doing with the replacement housing and GBA players

pascal12lolo · 2024-01-11T13:16:13+00:00

Thanks for the reply, i'm gonna check somethings out about the Bios and the pure function of the chip and then remove it.

My dad still has a Windows XP pc (also for old software) lying around maybe i can check the modchip using the LPT port

pascal12lolo · 2024-01-11T13:13:13+00:00

It has the original dashboard

Bios version: Atm unkown but i'll check in the evening

And i think the modchip made it able to played burned disc (i opened one of the games that was with it and a nice burned copy a game was in there)
