    Bought a GC Wavebird Reciever and it won't work

    So my controller works fine. My issue is that the OEM reciever I bought doesn't work. Using a multimeter, is seems the dial is receiving power. However, the power indicator will not turn on. Has anyone dealt with this and can I fix it? My particular reciever is a DOL-005 with the RF receiver...

    [Oppinion] What was Nintendo's "golden generation"?

    Yeah I grew up with a DS Lite. When it crapped the bed, I got a 3DS and that was an AMAZING system! It was classy, portable, powerful, snappy, and so much fun!

    GCN Grand Theft Auto III / Vice City on GameCube

    Wow sort of surprised this post got slept on forever. I'd kill to play Vice City on my GameCube tbh. And yeah, the GC is far superior to the PS2. It's got better GPU tech, a much better CPU... seems like it should run. I think it's an issue of how much work it'd take to actually get it compiling...

    Hardware Misc GCN "Super GameCube" project of mine.

    Okay, I might sound really dumb for asking about this considering my Wii does this and my Wii U even better, and my Raspberry Pi even better, and my gaming PC any better, but hear me out... Can I get some really specific mods to beef up my GameCube? I'd like to overclock my processor, and...
