XenoGC + SD2SP2

I only had a XenoGC at first but I kept getting read errors even after replacing the lens (I tried tweaking the pot, etc). Thankfully, I never had a problem booting discs, only playing them for more than 15 minutes, so it was perfect for SD2SP2 since booting up Swiss only takes a few seconds.

Also, I was surprised at how cheap SD2SP2s are.

No, we did bought it and we were really disappointment with it then we sell it in about a year or so after purchased it. And using Dolphin Emulator instead. Sorry but Game Cube was a horrible system just like Wii and Wii U. I had Wii too. Decided not to buy Wii U when it was released. Learned our lesson. Just saying. :)

My first one is modded with a QOOB, a full-size case, an homemade SD reader and a SD2SP2.
I have 2 other ones modded with a WKF, one is modded with a MEGA3 (enables YUV and S/PDIF)

First one I had not, second one I bought 2 years ago yes. Xeno modchip + SD2SP2 + HDMI Video Output + Full size case icecube + noisekiller Fan + battery replacement with a battery holder.
Maybe I will do some LEDs in the controller ports in the future.

Xeno + SD2SP2 and it's been amazing. Playing custom ISO's on the gamecube is always fun, whether it's a texture mod or a hack pack. And not having to buy super expensive and hard to find discs is a godsend. 128GB sd card? it takes 10 minutes for me to be playin a new game. worthy investment.

    @BigOnYa My dad recently bought a spare Series X off of me, got game pass, and saw Madden '24 on Game Pass, decided to try it out.

    @K3Nv2 He was looking into consoles for his house anyway (for my younger siblings and himself) and I had a spare XSX and Switch I ended up selling him at pretty steep cuts. I would just give them to him, but I did buy them with the intent to sell them... and college is super expensive.
