hi im 13 years old and new to this forum. Im really interested in burning .iso' to disc and playing them in my gamecube. i dont have any chips or mods. can i still do it? ive been trying to get answers but come up empty-handed so would you please explain everything Step-By-Step and in lamens terms,so i can understand it.Im only 13 after all. Do i need to "mod" it and if so how. do i need phantasy star to backup my games? someone help me please.thanks in advance
First of all you need to mod your Gamecube. I recommend you buy the Viper GC chip from www.divineo.com. On the other hand,your only 13 and you have to solder the chip on the Gamecube board...I suggest you go see a professional.It will cost you about 100$ to get your Gamecube modded...Once done it will be easy to backup and copy games.
thanks. gee 100 bucks! thats the only way to do it there arnt any alternatives? why will it cost so much if the chips only $40? are sony or fuji dvd-rs okay to use? can i just get my dad to solder it? so do i need to flash it? whats that? sorry for all the questions.
If you get your chip installed by an installer your cube will not get messed up. If your dad knows how to solder it will not be hard for him. He can find instructions for doing so online. Good Luck!- I wish my console would have been modded when i was 13! that rocks!
Cowmoo: a modchip is NOT required to play backed up games. It is however the best method overall. You can do a soft mod using programs like Anaconda or GCOS. What you'll need PSO BBA adapter (for ripping your games) Action Replay + official Nintendo 59 memory card or Max drive Pro The only downside with the softmode is play back of all games is not 100%. Where as with a Viper or Qoob modchip pretty much everything works perfectly. http://modthatcube.pxn-os.com/main.htm That site should have all the info you'll need on the different methods. -DG
