    If you lose your Game Boy disc or want a better home-brew experience, there is a 3rd party solution, but it is a bit involved. You either need to use the Action Replay w/ a SD card or burn a special bootable DVDr. Instructions are here: www.retrorgb.com/gameboyinterface.html

    I think what often gets overlooked as a necessary GameCube accessory is the action replay. Generally you don't consider it an accessory because it's software but the action replay allowed you to do so much more in games that you normally wouldn't be able to do. For example you can play around with test levels in Wind Waker and even unlock debug mode in a few games. Perhaps my favorite was being able to play as Master Hand, Crazy Hand and Giga Bowser in Super Smash Brothers Melee.

    One thing that I think might be worth mentioning in an ultimate GameCube setup is a sound system that supports Dolby Pro Logic II. To be fair, that's not something unique to the GameCube, but I feel that's something you gotta have when playing GameCube games.

    That's purely speculation. Aside from everything else, how is the general public/average reseller going to determinate what's actually "rare" on the Wii? I love the system and the library, but unfortunately, it gets a bad rep these days outside of Wii Sports, Mario Galaxy, Metroid, Kirby and Xenoblade. None of which are rare in the slightest. Wii isn't like these other systems. Neither is Gamecube. There's a reason Ikaruga has never been lower than $50 yet Metal Arms Glitch and Mystic Heroes are far less readily available and only worth $10. No one on a large scale will be looking for games on these systems like with retro stuff. Therea re a ton of limited Wii games that still barely fetch higher than $25 even in an ebay Buy it now. Maybe popular games will rise in price but that's all. I'm already seeing so many scalpers fail with Wii U stuff, it's almost funny. The Wii U games that are actually overtly pricey happen to be garbage you wouldn't actually want to play...

    You don’t need the disc for the GB Player, you can run it using homebrew called GB Interface. You should use GBI anyways, since it corrects most of the flaws of the original software when it comes to timing, image quality, scaling options and lag. Also it’s in active development and just keeps getting better

    I need to check this out after hearing so much about it in the comments. I've always used the original GB Player bootdisc and have never had any problems with input lag even on my 4KTV setup, but the image quality (blurriness) with GBA games does leave a bit to be desired. It just seems to be a bit more blurry than it should, even given the fact its taking such a low res image and blowing it up. I will check this out and compare results. I'm happy with how it is already but if it can be even better that'd be great.

Just a small note, you dont actually need the disc for the gameboy-player on the GC. You can load a file into your memorycard and boot up the gameboy-player, using several different gamecube-games. Keep up the good work :)

    Awesome video as always, Jason. The GameCube has always been one of my favorite consoles and among the 10+ consoles that I personally own and still have set up it's maybe my most cherished, because I have the better part of this setup. I have a black DOL-001, paired with a black Game Boy Player (and disc of course), connected to the TV (55" 4K UHDTV) via the rare component cables (which go for $330+ now) and matched with a black Hori Digital Gamepad (going for $170+ now) and an old Wavebird Controller. The Hori Pad and component cables going for a combined $500 makes this the most valuable console in my collection. Never would have imagined this back when people made fun of the GameCube.

    You actually don’t need the disk. You can get SD media launcher for GameCube and launch homebrew program called game boy interface which is far superior to the official disk because you can play these game boy games in 240p vs 480i/p

    Misleading to say you can’t get the gameboy playing without the Nintendo gameboy player software disc....just get a sd media launcher and use homebrew software which is great as you can force 240p resolution which looks amazing on a crt

    Great video metal Jesus, just got a quick question though, I already put in an order for Zeldaxpros GC plug n play, I see that the one you linked in this video does what seems like the same thing except instead of $100 it's $50 more, I'm trying to get a similar ultimate GameCube setup. Zeldaxpros model is smaller and cheaper and the new 3.0 mini model doesn't fry your GameCube like his 2.0 did. Should I back out and buy this product instead? If so, what makes it better? Since you included this with your ultimate GameCube setup and not zeldas. I would love to hear your thoughts on this. Is it really worth the extra $50 price tag, thanks again for the great vid.

    I don't have ZeldaXpros latest v3.0 HDMI adapter, but I've seen his crash/trip test videos and it looks solid and sturdy. I have no reason to think you wouldn't be just as happy with that at $50 less. However, I do like how the EON is sold through Amazon in case you wanted an easy refund AND it's injected molded with that extra plug for extra sturdiness... Just in case. ;)

I'm gonna stick with ZeldaXpros since it's only $100 and it's half the size and does the same exact thing, I don't see any reason to justify the $50 extra for this one, and plus I might want to get the Panasonic Q that I saw in the video at some point and it looks like EONS won't work with it however ZeldaXpros looks like it will.

    I finally got the incredible game cube player dialed in with the settings to match a around 40 inch widescreen from 07 that had S video hookups. Remember S video hookups from the 90s before component. Definitely an upgrade from standard AV. For the GameCube player to look amazing switch tv to full frame or 4:3 from widescreen then on settings z button option change screen size to full frame, soft filter, border frame 20, and possibly take your tv sharpness level down one or two levels because S video ups the sharpness and brightness and can cause jaggies if sharpness too high.Been enjoying Golden Sun this way with cube analog stick and fat A button. Looking forward to trying others as well. Use to play em on retron 5 in HD but like this even better and more true with the cube controller and analog stick. Thanks for all the passion and insight you share with us in your amazing vids Brother.

It was pretty awesome. I used Commodore 1084 monitors for the Gameboy Player systems and a larger monitor with component video input for the system actually running the game. When I set that up again... I'll use a Wii to run the game, and I'll get more Wavebirds. The tangle of cables from the four systems was a nightmare.
