That keychain you threw away actually looked like it might have been real silver. Maybe part of a bracelet or something.

[@wherecoulditgo4677]

It's amazing. Before I started my little channel, everything I bought to fix never worked. Now it seems like everything gets fixed by the mailman.

Thanks for the video. I thought I needed a swiss boot disc, good to know I can throw it on the sd card instead.

Yes a Memory Card 2 SD adapter is very cheap and accessible on amazon nowdays. Picoboot is also very satifying hack to do. I have to warn you its addictive. Im already at my second pico this year.

@@Teknishun yep I ordered a picoboot already. I found my old GameCube in the closet but no games so I decided to order one along with a hdmi converter so it’ll look nice. Honestly can’t wait to check out my old saves. I’ve already modded my switch lite with a picofly as well as a backlit gba so I figured this should be a cake walk. We’ll see if I get the bug to start buying up for parts GameCubes to fix and mod after lol

As soon as you said "pulled out" I knew you were canadian. xD

[@califpv]

What are you talking aboot?

[@IsaacG8]

Couldn't you also have gotten a broken GameCube with a SP2 port and just solder the port back in?

[@TechGuyLife]

Yep, if you had a totally dead gamecube, you could use the donor part
