Pimp them? No, keep them fixed and original.

Jeez, did the previous owner use that GC as a flotation device, in a pool full of pepsi? I never understand how users let their game systems/PC's get to this level of misuse

@nuwavghost Exactly. I know people like to deny that Nintendo consoles are for kids or are a "kiddie console" but the fact of the matter is plenty of kids owed them and used and abused the heck out of them. Same thing with literally any of their other Home consoles and or Portables. ( though I must say if you're getting a ten-year-old a switch you got too much disposable income,yeesh!)

It's always good to know that these old Nintendo work horses can still be used for decades to come. It's always comforting to know that these things can be fixed rather easily and cheaply and continue to work for a long time to come.

Gamecube was actually more powerful than the PS2, with the xbox being the most powerful for that gen. Didnt own a Gamcube till later ( had the PS2 early on) but still, my friends and I always played Melee, Double Dash, Viewtful Joe, Res4, Wind Waker/TP and of course Super Monkey ball as well:)

@khaledalhosani1409

SirReznor yes it was more powerful! I remember trying Batman Vengeance (one of my first game cube purchases) on Game Cube and then seeing it on my friends PS2 and it looked better and somehow smoother (If I recall correctly ) on gamecube. However, some titles like need for speed, Def Jam FFNY had some features cut due to the disk size, sometimes it’s audio files, others textures or details. It’s amazing how Nintendo was able to squeeze every ounce of the console power and disk size. :D

I love it when you open up consoles! It’s very interesting to see how you fix it and I appreciate the explanation of all the important parts. I haven’t had to fix any of my consoles yet, but if I do, I’ll definitely refer to these videos. Also, love the F-Zero X music!

Love this type of stuff! Because of your videos I started to actually tinker, clean, learn and fix old video game stuff that I had. Now I'm hooked into doing this stuff.

Ok, I know the thing has a handle on it, but how do you get enough water damage in a GameCube for it to be broken? Lol

You can leave the metal RF shielding out usually, it's only in there to keep the FCC happy. And it ain't like the GameCube has any actual RF-emitting components.

I have nothing but LOVE for the GameCube! Soooo many good memories with this system - and I own all Nintendo consoles and still have them. Severely underrated by the masses. Also, at time of this comment, this video had 587 👍 and 5 👎... why the hate. This is nothing but a quality video by this man and highly educational!

Love these types of videos, between you and a few others I’ve learned loads of great stuff about my favourite consoles

Mario accidentally shot it with water, and before it stopped working, the GameCube yelled “No!”

I love this type of content. Keep it coming dude!

Imagine the water damage is actually a bad doggies golden shower 😳

Nice! These gamecube related videos are my favorites. Especially when getting the games in the mail!

I’m always in awe of people who are able to do things like this. That’s why I enjoy these videos because it’s borderline sorcery! Plus it had GameCube in the title, there was no way I wasn’t going to watch it

This is awesome! You should do more of this refurbished stuff! Super interesting

I love all this stuff. So cool Jon. Nice work! Do a saturn!

I've always wanted to get into things like this I definitely enjoy these videos. Thanks man!

Awesome restore, brother!! I definitely check out all your videos and find cool tips and tricks all the time. Keep 'em coming!!

Thanks for keeping the music going during the put back together phase with the final look. I didn't want the music to stop lol. I miss my GameCube and games, I wish I still had mine :(

I love your restoration videos! So far this year I've restored an original Xbox and a Game Boy Color. Thank you for the inspiration!

Nice F-Zero X tracks in vid and outro, X and GX are my favorite 64 and GC games. Masterpieces. Great job on the restoration.

I love watching these I watch alot of Tronics fix cause he and you both actually talk us through it and it's nice.

I like the stuff you do with consoles, changing shells, fixing them, doing custom work

Awesome video, that final look is AWESOME!! Very impressive!

I appreciate your repair videos, vastly helpful to the community

you have to respect people that takes the time to properly wrapped up something that they're sending off to someone who bought it from them especially when that item isn't working they still take the time

I like a lot of your vids, but the teardowns/rebuilds/fixes are definitely my favorite.

Thanks for all the fix it videos you make. Because of them I’m able to repair. From someone who has no knowledge what so at all.Mostly recent drift issue for my friends switches.

Love your vids man, makes my day!

I love Spawnwave's projects and console tear downs.

I watch newswave every morning and really enjoy your weekend content!

Hey I’m kinda new here been watching for only a couple months! But I love your videos man keep on keepin on.

Love it dude, I watch all your vids, great content always.

I find these repair videos very interesting. Thanks!

Love all your Gamecube content. Goodluck with your GC collection!

Totally awesome GameCube repair video. I really like these types of videos. I hope to see more

Enjoying them (videos) keep them coming Spawnwave!

Really good Job Jon(SW). Man that GC was beat up badly with that Water Damage. That Starlight Gold Case is looking fantastic, I had the Purple one back when, which was pretty funky and sweet.

Yes! Love these kind of videos!!!! Nice job!

Love these types of videos, keep it up!

Love this kind of content. Your gamecube looks great in that case.

I know I’m late to the party, but keep pushing videos like this. It’s great watching. Oh and please do a budget at the end.

Used GameCube for sale. “Light” water damage. Doesn’t read discs. Well, when you flood the disc motor... Great video!

I'd love to see more videos like this Also, I've been trying to get a gamecube since I only had the ps2 when I was a kid, but every guy I call asking for the cube, it's been sold a few hours or days before my call, it's pretty annoying since those has been really good prices

Love these kinds of videos. Keep it up.

I love these videos! I always want to do it myself but get scared of needing to micro solder

How are there dislikes for this video? Great job as always and this was a really fun watch, thank you!

I really like these videos. Thanks!

Hope to see more of these repairs/ remastering of systems!

Yes SpawnWave, I enjoy the hell out of these videos. Please so many more

They must of dropped this one in the pool😆, great video btw my guy!✊🏼

Seller selling (undisclosed) water-damaged GC to Spawn on ebay: Haha, Gotcha! Spawn fixing said GC on KZread: Haha, Gotcha!

I love your tech videos. Much Respect.

I love the little sound when it boots up a game, i remember my GC becoming faulty and i'd just wait to hear that sound which confirms it has read the game correctly. Sometimes it'd take upwards of 15 minutes to get it running lol

Love these type of video

Your starlight GameCube build turned out Great! 👍

MORE OF THESE PLEASE DUDE ❤️

Awesome video. Love the repair series. Id love to see more. Original XBOX would be cool. I dont see alot of that.

Never cease to amaze me, great video!

I bought myself a GameCube for 23$ 2 years ago and it works flawlessly.

love the big blue music with the put together

I bought a 21 dollar gamecube that apparently didn't read discs. Turns out it actually did.

I'd like to see more videos like this. I love console repair vids.

Amazing videos man. Love to see the passion and knowledge shine through. Question, my GameCube has never been professionally cleaned but is still looking and running like a top. Should I keep on keeping on or look into getting it cleaned? I love this thing and play it monthly, I just wonder how much more it has in it. I can visibly see dust and grim on the fan. I wonder what 20+ years of use has done to it?

I enjoy your repair videos

Cool video tech talk spawn wave

Very cool keep up the good work 👍

Awesome video!

This is nice that you show how to get the laser out. because that's actually a small issue going on with my Gamecube. I doubt this will be read but could you someday do a video on corrupted gamecube memory cards and how to fix them?

The end result looks amazing.
