    Hello everyone.

    Does anybody know a way to play N64 roms on a gamecube without a broadband adapter?

    Make sure you have hidden files enabled. Get phoenix, go to the tab that says loaders and click the top drop down menu to nintendo 64. Choose rom and click load. PSOLoad will try to load it, now go to the folder where the phoenix exe is located and there will be a hidden file called n64.iso. Copy and paste this to the desktop then rename it "*.gcm" and there you go.

    You can get Phoenix @ maxconsole.com

    You will need these two OCX's in same folder as phoenix for it to run.

    COMCTL32.OCX (http://www.ascentive.com/support/new/images/lib/COMCTL32.OCX)

    and

    MSWINSCK.OCX (http://www.ascentive.com/support/new/images/lib/MSWINSCK.OCX)

    Thx, I'll give it a try with phoenix 2.5. So with the multi-game option in the new Cobra 1.1 I can put several games on a DVD and then boot them. Am I right?

    @ Quezacotl: At least credit my work when you use it. I compiled that list from the list that Nintendo put with the emulator, and user input

    Super Mario 64 works, and you have to patch a lot of the roms to get them working. Get the patches at dextrose.com

    @ koteshi: Yes you can put as many as you want (that will fit) with the multiboot option. Just change the extension to iso, and burn!
