The Nintendo GameCube is still awesome - Games, Homebrew, Modding and More
the sixth era of home control center has
to be my number one period in gaming from the
strong PlayStation 2 to the genuine arcade
at home nature of the Sega Dreamcast
furthermore, newbie Microsoft with their Xbox
furthermore, its implicit hard drive and on the web
capacities
[Music]
and afterward there was Nintendo the Nintendo
GameCube was delivered in North America
furthermore, Japan in November of 2001 and six
months after the fact in Europe and Australia as
the name proposes the GameCube is a
block molded control center that packs a very
little structure factor
while it's anything but an ideal shape by any
implies it measures 150 by 160 by a
112 millimeters all
around the game key was the first
Nintendo control center to use optical
circles which are the small DVD design
equipped for amassing to 1.5 gigabytes
in size Nintendo was likewise first out of
the entryway to change to the PowerPC
design something that Sony and
Microsoft embraced with the PlayStation 3
also, Xbox 360 separately Nintendo
needed to work on improvement and
use a RISC design so
designers could zero in on making the
best games they could and the Gamecube
conveyed
[Music]
with an amazing dispatch setup of
games including Luigi's Mansion
Tony Hawk master skater 3 Super Monkey Ball
- Rogue Squadron - maverick pioneer and that's just the beginning
the game keeps dispatch setup is
thought about outstanding amongst other ever in video
game history
Nintendo additionally wasn't hesitant to
try different things with the revamps of more seasoned
titles with the great Super Mario
all-stars yet the gamecube took that
idea to a higher level with revamps
of exemplary games including Metal Gear
Strong the Twin Snakes and Resident Evil
hello Wesker where's Chris Jill no you
try not to need to return out there yet
we must discover what was that Chris no
Jill proceed to research anyway in the event that we
glance back at the marketing projections it wasn't
kind on the Gamecube selling just 20
million units overall it was without any problem
beaten by Sony and Microsoft and
eventually the Nintendo GameCube was
suspended in 2007 yet the Nintendo
Wii took a significant part of the GameCubes
engineering and advancement and added
movement controls to it and as we probably are aware
that was a raving success
it's an extraordinary opportunity to return to the
Nintendo GameCube with such a lot of force and
execution in a little structure
factor and obviously we will take
a gander at modding the gadget and truly
draw out some new elements that you may
not know about so we should go on and
investigate and see what makes the
gamecube still wonderful in 2019
while his regulator innovation had been
around for a long time before the
Gamecube the Nintendo wavebird anyway
was the primary standard remote
regulator for a control center framework that set
the norm for people in the future
requiring two twofold a batteries the
wavebird utilize radio recurrence
transmission or RF for its correspondence
the collector interfaces with a regulator
port and gives a channel determination
dial to coordinate with its recurrence with the
regulator this implied that different wave
birds can be utilized together with no
crosstalk or impedance
[Music]
despite the fact that at the time it might have appeared
like an inconsequential component the Gamecube
was the primary framework to have an advanced
AV out port it wasn't until the
PlayStation 3 delivered in 2006 five
a long time after the GameCube that included
a HDMI port for computerized AV out this is
simply one more illustration of Nintendo's
advancement and ground breaking the
computerized AV yield permitted the utilization for
segment links which are very
costly to buy because of the low
creation numbers yet in 2019 there are
a few HDMI arrangements that can be
used, for example, the vehicle B for $75 or
more costly an on GC HDMI to incredible for
gaming on an advanced showcase or in any event, for
live streaming Nintendo was rarely apprehensive
to explore different avenues regarding imitating and
in reverse similarity thoughts the super
Gameboy on the Super Nintendo was a
fringe that permitted the utilization of Game
Kid games on the Super Nintendo that
same thought was applied to the Gamecube in
the type of the Game Boy player a
equipment add-on that fits under the
Gamecube and associates with the equal
port it empowers Game Boy Game Boy Color
furthermore, Game Boy Advance cartridges to be
played it likewise requires a boot up circle
to utilize the gadget the actual equipment is
almost indistinguishable from a Game Boy Advance
what's more, there is no imitating utilized like
other 6th era frameworks at the
time the Nintendo GameCube was
locale locked
presently overall the vast majority of us most likely
haven't managed this issue as it was
a gentle inconvenience, best case scenario, yet in the event that you
ventured out abroad to Japan for instance
what's more, needed to play some restrictive early
titles or needed to exploit
that a cost of games this was not
conceivable to do on a stock GameCube the
GameCube will just not play unique
district plates on your North American
GameCube for instance the uplifting news
anyway is that you can without much of a stretch work
around this without a difficult situation and
utilize a boot plate called a freeloader this
just permits you to play imported games
on your GameCube boot up with the circle
furthermore, place the distinctive area circles
into the drive and you're off and
running you can in any case get free
stacked circles pretty modest nowadays
they are made by D tell the creator of the
activity replay another approach to get area
free games to stack on your GameCube is
to introduce a mod boat the most famous
mod chip that you can get for your
Gamecube today is known as the Zeno GC now
this is a very
modest and simple to get my chip that
you can get on eBay for about $5 and
it's a genuinely simple six wire
mother anybody with middle
binding abilities can get introduced into
their GameCube so we should go on and
introduce the Zeno GC mod chip into our
gamecube and show you what it's fit
of so this is the Zeno GC mod chip it's
a genuinely easy to introduce gadget yet
there's a couple of things to know about
above all else you need to open up your
gamecube to do this you need a
tri wing screw driver with a four point
five millimeter bit simply unscrew all
four screws from under the gamecube
turn it upstanding and lift the case off it
should confess all now the
next thing you need to do is unclip the
front regulator port cover from the
case then with the Phillips head
screwdriver eliminate the two screws on the
circuit board to isolate the regulator
port cover on the left half of the
Gamecube there's two screws holding the
power connector fan get together unscrew
those then at the front of the gamecube
with a little Phillips head screw driver
eliminate the two metal sections currently go
around the metal protecting and eliminate
every one of the excess screws with a
Phillips head screwdriver there ought to
be 12 in absolute presently just lift the drive
component yet don't constrain it ought to
give way and separate effectively from the
fundamental get together the modchip will go on the
underside of the CD system so we need
to flip around the drive and with a
little Phillips head screwdriver eliminate
every one of the screws holding the metal
protecting
so before we may anything the first
thing we need to do is ensure this
laser since we will turn
this drive get together topsy turvy we don't
need the laser to push on to the
piece of wood here I essentially get a piece
of paper and tape it down to ensure the
laser as referenced we will be
dealing with the underside of the board
presently to introduce the Zeno GC you have two
choices
the first is the no wire technique where
you just fit the mo chip in the
right situation on the board making
sure you line up each of the six pins and essentially
patch into place the issue with this
strategy anyway is numerous if not most Zeno
GCS you purchase from eBay are clones and
efficiently made and there is no
ensure that every one of the focuses are even
going to arrange so if so
you can basically utilize a customary six
wire strategy however I will roll the
dice and attempt the no wire strategy and see
in the event that it works
[Music]
not the cleanest work I've at any point done yet
I test each point with a multimeter and
I'm quite sure this will work one
of the course things about the Panasonic
Q which is the Japanese early GameCube
equipment and DVD combo that was
grown only by Panasonic in
Japan is that the regulator ports are
all enlightened now the cool part is you
can play out precisely the same mod onto your
GameCube and it's a genuinely inconsequential and
straightforward mod to do somebody that has
fledgling to middle patching
abilities can do this reasonably effortlessly let me
show you how it's finished
this may include is introducing four
shaded LEDs of your decision into the
four regulator ports the easiest way
to do this is to eliminate the security
tabs of every one of the four ports by utilizing
a couple of tweezers and pushing them up
from inside the regulator connector
then, at that point cut them away do this for each
regulator port now the motivation behind why we
need to do this is to take into consideration the LED
coating to enter the regulator port
else it will not look excellent at this point
the following thing we need to do to
append LED lights to this board we have
to recognize a +5 volt source and a
ground now the uplifting news is this may
has been done numerous often previously and
on every one of the control focuses as you can
see we have control port one two three
what's more, four this specific pin here is +5
what's more, this is your ground for the first
regulator this is +5 and this is ground
