i bought a faulty gamecube for reasons that i was planning to fix. but on opening it i found what looked like a botched Picoboot mod
and it appears sooooo many people have botched that mod and destroyed gamecubes that the creator now has a warning on his page about not attempting it it made me real nervous to try it, which is silly because i've been modding for years and done way more complicated and stupider shit, but still.... dead gamecubes ): anyway it was really easy and worked first go 👍
(dont try this at home kids)

How much do you charge for adding Picoboot to a gamecube DOL-001 console?
That would be P500 without the Picoboot itself just the labor

#ZableFable #InnerBagRealm #MonsterBag #IfZableHadToPlayByTheRulesToEachRealm #Househuntedgame #JohnDoegame #ZableTableFableFacts
If Zable had to play the Househuntedgame normally and their apartment was delayed this character would be a little mad be would calmly ask for the company to take their time to get the problem solved.
What the bag inside would look like but it would be a monster bag.
The link to the backpack image.

The bag would be small but could fit the character in there but would also have a early 2000s room inside with a bathroom in it.
This ridiculously huge backpack turned our reporter into a great big baby【Photos】 | SoraNews24 -Japan News-
This character would rest up in their inner bag realm inside of the monster backpack and play on their early 2000s cellphone but mainly composer.
The song will be references to past games similar to this or a original sounding one.

What the inner bag realm looks like but has inflatable furniture with posters from popular shows for Realm 12 on the walls with a sega dreamcast and gamecube inside.

The song will be references to past games similar to this or a original sounding one.
Zable when the randomly realm jump to other worlds be like then randomly falling on someone or hitting something on the way there be like.

If Zable randomly realm jumped to the Uncanny Valley this character would probably land on John Doe in the do you think he is cute message is there, maybe accidently realm jump in a Realtor's housebody then try to get out, or realm jump in Doe's trash hoarder house.
Janet is Zable's robo sloth translator and when the character is in the inner bag realm she will watch over the bag in case someone just picks it up. Janet will attack the person with harsh soundwaves to get you to leave or a song that will make you sleep. Maybe make police noises or alarm sounds and will fight you back. Zable needs Janet to communicate with the language the person from different realms from Shiften to a even ground language. If it's sign language then Janet will try her best to sign back.

If it's sign language then Janet will try her best to sign back.
Janet will attack a person by jumping and clinging to the intruder's face/ body then shock them to knock them out but if they are ground based or rubber based then the shock won't work.
Zable if the character was in ending 7 to John Doe would check if their 3 day interview and history learning cycle is up also to check if the crystal realm jumper clicker is flashing green.
Before packing up to realm jump back home would ask John Doe if they want to check out Realm 12 to not leave him alone by himself.
But Zable would let Doe pick a realm return sticker to put anywhere in the uncanny valley that is hard to remove so Zable can scan it to return easily to check up on this realm to see if anything changed.
Zable would walk to the uncanny valley mayor's office to interview him and ask questions about the place.
"Can certain beings from here leave this place or are these people just stuck here?"
Zable would ask John Doe if he wants to realm jump with them and also will ask if Doe wants to be a realm jumper as well so Doe won't be alone.
But when they arrive they need to be sprayed down with disinfectant spray and quarantining together.
Mostly Zable and Doe hanging out playing videogames in the inner bag realm in Zable's mayor mom's house, watching tv/movies, drawing, telling a scary stories, and ordering a cheeseburger pizza.
Doe would try to scare Zable but the character will pretend to be spooked since this character has seen way scarier stuff when realm jumping but kiss his pointed nose, face cheeks, or forehead randomly.
Maybe later introducing John Doe to the Bossman this character works for.
Janet will slowly get used to Doe but still get scared by him and his very existence science wise.
She also will write notes down about his species to keep for later in her mind like a digital journal only she can read unless you hack her to read the journals.
Janet would also try to crack what his real name is in Doe's true tongue since she doesn't believe John Doe is this creature's true name also wanting to learn a new language to save for later.
Alpha would want to interview Doe first before meeting him but each person will have a emotional effect when chatting.
Like if the boss has a scared like emotion when talking then the person interacting will have a reassurance emotion.
He will also want to know what his real name is and maybe use a nickname instead of a real name since John Doe is a too standoffish and mysterious or a joke name to some people or beings to believe.
Also use his dog as the translator partner for realm jumping.
Alpha would probably joke saying you are not unknown or missing you are right Infront of me.
Zable would call Doe Johnathan when working together.
Zericon would watch over Zable and Janet but tends to blend in backgrounds like poster ads, or as objects and animals.
Sometimes shifting into random people like a restaurant worker or pizza delivery person to spy on this special guest to gain info on whether or not to attack.
If this is before YipYop's sitcom curse is lifted then when both character's arrive in Realm 12 there will be a audience crowd applause coming from a random place.
Zable will randomly say a catchphrase against the character's will and they will apologize for it maybe tear up about it then the special guest will do it too.
That's why Zable likes interviewing in other realms since their realm is cursed by another shifter as a joke.
Also Zable seems normal in other realms without saying a catchphrase or a joke like a sitcom character and Zable is not really into sitcom shows since it hits close to home.
Zable is also trying to find a way to defeat YipYop and undo the curse while freeing their realm.
Yipyop's sitcom curse goes beyond the theme song, catchphrases, and sound effects that some characters in realm 12 will be removed or sent to a storage void when not needed.
And changed into different things or monsters under their control.
Also changing genders or forms of certain characters without them knowing while also giving them false memories and mostly using them like playthings since Yipyop was watched at the museum like a show in that ancient lava like amber crystal prison.
Also adding new characters they created like a evil version of Zable and the other realm 12 residents to try to find Fable to destroy that shifter.
The evil version of Zable acts like the normal one but can be a little off and you can tell if you are friends with this character or dating Zable.
Zable would let John Doe play their videogames and will let him wing it but will slowly give him hints if he gets stuck.
If it's a Illbleed like game Zable will just watch Doe's reactions to how weird the game gets then chuckles.
Zable would also point out that every time the character in game gets hit it reminds them of John Doe's fake blood thing if you hit him he bleeds.
Zable would just watch Doe play level 4 and not say a thing during the meat department part but will smirk when John Doe happily starts collecting meat.
Zable would be one of those characters that would follow a Realtor up to their housebody then ask if the house was for rent with money in hand.
While also asking what are the house rules to follow.
Zable would also try to out house pun a Realtor to see if that will let them go or annoy them maybe make the house laugh.
Zable would also try to guess how much the monster house cost with what style of house it is while looking it up in a house magazine.
This character would be curious about the weird quirks each house has.
Zable is 6'2".
Zable would be taking pictures of everything in the Uncanny Valley that interests the character but will ask people or beings if they want to be in a picture after doing a interview with them.
This character would be petting regular guys which the character would call them fluffy little squeaky buddies.
Zable would be shocked to see that a regular guy can be humanoid and would try to record the process out of curiosity.
This character would do side quests to learn the realm's history and culture but may have a feeling people might give the character filler work to do.
Zable's attitude and personality might rub off on to John Doe that he might slowly get Zable's puns or jokes but not by much.
Fankids
---------
If Zable and Maison Talo had a kid then the offspring would be a object head of the house body with the lure cord being like a scarf.
This only if both parties agreed that they want to have kids and both are really in love with each other then Zable needs to Realtor Dna like the business card or a part of the house body eaten will work to make up kids.
Home o sapien is what this species would be called.
John Doe's Fankids would be two Regular Fellas and one Funny Guy.
Zandra and Zeal look more Regular Guy in appearance but are a little off I would call them Regular Fellas.
While Zouglas is a Funny Guy while looking more human like but a little off.
How the Fankids Work
-------------------------
Fable will tell Zable to eat the seed of a seed bearing house or the pollen of a pollinator house to make a Home o sapien.
But the vessel may be embarrassed when watched doing this process and may need privacy.
Later the vessel will either clap their hands or snap to make the offspring appear.
The reason the offspring is weird looking is because Fable with Zable's shifter half is guessing what the other half Dna is mixed with the human Dna.
The offspring can mate with anything it wants but robots and non organic beings maybe a challenge for them but it can happen.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Whenever John Doe enters Zable's uncanny valley apartment I imagine a sitcom sound effects plays with clapping from a unknown place.
Zable would be like while shrug smiling looking at the viewer like a camera is there.
"I wonder who could that be?" "I hope it's the pizza person."
"What sound effects I don't hear anything you must be under the weather or over it am I right."
Videos not mine but links are there.
Sitcom & Crowd Laughter Various Sound FX (youtube.com)
After saying that joke Zable will have on tear roll down the character's cheek like it was a forced joke from the sitcom curse this character has.
John Doe randomly appearing in your apartment gives me Kramer entrance sitcom vibes.
All Kramer's Entrances | Seinfeld (youtube.com)
That's wild that Zable Fable is taller than both Heim and Doe since this character is 6'2 while also at Maison Talo kissing height since he is 6'3.
Doe is 5'8 but can shapeshift.
Heim is 4'11.
John Doe Question's I have
------------------------------
Also wild that John Doe can't bleed in his true form which is interesting to me unless that's not cannon anymore.
I wonder what was the first time he noticed that humans bleed and put that into his fake body to act normal?
And his first set of scars.
Wonder if his eye bleeds when damaged in his Doe ball form?
I know in his human form if you three stooges eye poke his eyes they turn into teeth.
The sequel to Zable Fable's food review after dying once to REALTORs in the loop then seeing any of them watching the character eat be like.
Video not mine but link is there.
[SFM] Taco Bell UK TV Ad (youtube.com)
Zable Fable's Uncanny Valley Cafe Review
"The thick coffee was weird but interesting kind of goopy and the coffee cake was S tier while this pastry had a lot of flavors going on in that dessert."
" The tea was pretty good and the cake pretty while also unique in taste."
" I was disappointed in the ham and cheese croissant sandwich kind of tasted like it was factory made or a normal one I could easily get cheaper which the other food items had something special going on definitely bottom tier. "
"I might thank the staff later with a tip."

uhhh i just bought a second gamecube lol
like. my gamecube is a dol-101 which means it doesn't have a digital out port (which means converting it to hdmi is always going to look like shit) and i've wanted to get it modded to add the port but that seems to be impossible at least for the time being (the kits have been sold out for so long and now the one site selling them seems to have taken down the listing. plus on top of that i'd have to have someone do it for me and idk where to go for that either) (from what i can tell getting a modchip added also seems trickier than on a dol-001?)
most of the advice ive seen for this situation is "just get rid of it and get a dol-001" which is uh. not the point. this is my childhood gamecube i want to keep using it. it's also a perfectly good console so it's annoying to see people so eager to just throw them aside
but i looked... and for just $100 i found a dol-001 that was already modded with picoboot (ipl replacement that makes the console boot into whatever you want) and they refurbished it (cleaned all the parts, recapped the motherboard which according to them will extend its life by 25 years). disk drive doesnt work but with picoboot that's kind of unimportant. seller seems to be pretty reliable too, they have almost exclusively good reviews going back to 2016
feels a little redundant to get a second gamecube, especially since i can technically already get a digital signal out of natively run gamecube games on my wii u and wii... it does add that to the game boy player though (also: with picoboot you can set a button to hold to automatically boot into the game boy interface, which btw is the homebrew replacement for the game boy player software that does a better job displaying the games apparently). also been thinking about getting a gba flashcart anyway (ez flash omega definitive edition) to add more to that
also my experience using nintendont on my wii u has been kind of awkward. you have to go all the way into wii mode and the homebrew channel and nintendont and then pick the game (sure, injects are a thing, but i've tried a few and they all black screen, and i've tried everything the devs of the inject program, uwuvci, say to do to make them work--and they also say for some people it just doesn't for some reason and nobody knows why). sometimes i get in there and it gets some kind of error and i have to start all the way over. meanwhile modded gamecube boots into swiss and you pick a game from there and that's it
the drawback is that since you're loading from an sd card (either in a memory card adapter or in a serial port 2 adapter, they're functionally the same) there's compatibility issues since it can't always read from there fast enough to run the game full speed. however there's also something called the M.2 loader coming that'll be able to load the data faster (from the ssd you attach to it). you plug it into serial port 1 (where the broadband adapter would go). but anyway if there are any games that don't run right booted from the sd i could probably just do them on the wii u or wii instead
anyway. my hope is that someday i'll be able to get my original gamecube modded (and then either sell this new one or give it away i suppose?), but it's good to have a backup
and it's not like gamecubes are going to get cheaper, probably, so getting that now is good i guess? like. that's a really good deal .a gamecube that's pre-modded and refurbished and apparently comes with an sd card? (the seller casually mentioned they could include some games if asked. the only way to run games on this one is through an sd card, so those would have to be iso files. on an sd card. if theyre giving me the card already then copying files doesnt cost them anything. so maybe there's a card in there). anyway yeah all that for $100. pretty good i think
well. maybe someday as they become more scarce people won't be so quick to abandon dol-101s and there'll be more resources for modding them
