If you have a GameCube, and you want to make it awesome, here are the things you need to know about:

Method 1: Datel’s SD Media Launcher. This is by far the easiest method of running homebrew on your GameCube. There is NO hardware modification and only requires Datel’s $20 memory card slot device and an SD card (NOT SDHC) that is 4GBs or less (though if you’re going to run SD Remix off of the memory card using Swiss-GC, make sure it is.

  3. I just bought the Media Launcher and Sd card reader from Datel’s site. It came with a Micro SD card read, so now I’m trying to find a Micro Sd card that’ll work. I had two 4 gigs and neither are being detected even though their site says they accept up to 4GB.

There are several worth looking into.

First, check out this review:GameCube HDMI Plug 'n' Play Reviews (2018)

Top Pick

  • $75 Carby v2 by Insurrection Industries
    • (official store, slower shipping)

All Picks

  • $75 Carby v2 by Insurrection Industries
    • (official store, slower shipping)
  • $150 GCHD Mk-II GameCube HDMI Adapter
    • (ebay link)
  • $90 HDMy Cube
  • $105 HDMy Cube Pro
  • $99 GC Video Plug n Play 3.0 by ZXP

DIY Options

Thanks to the magic of economies of scale,it's not any cheaper to DIY the HDMI adapter than to buy it,but you can.

  • $60 Pluto-IIx XC3S200 HDMI (#6117 pre-programmed with GCVideo 2.4d for Gamecube)
    • (uses the same Xilinx XC3S200A as used in the HDMy Cube)

You may be tempted to follow the GameCube HDMI Hardware Mod Howto,But wait! You totally don't have to desolder the the Digital AV port!!

You can just buy the plug:

  • $12 GameCube Digital AV Port

And, of course, if you think you might ever want to update the software, you'll need these:

  • $2 CH341a USB FPGA Programmer
    • (amazon link)

Cheating: RCA to HDMI

If you're on a tight budget or have the DOL-101 without the Digital AV Port, Runner Up:

  • $9 Gana Composite (blurry analog) to HDMI

GameBoy Player: OSSC / Framemeister

Even newer TVs should support 'standard definition' (SD) 480i and 480p games -because that's what DVDs play at.

However, if you have a really new TV that doesn't support low-resolution 240i and 240pgame modes that you might want for certain games, and especially the GameBoy Player,you may want to invest in one of the 'kitchen sink' video convertersthat support all formats.

  • $160 OSSC
  • $400 Framemeister

... or you may just want to find a nice Trinitron TruFlat CRT on craigslist. :)

Alternatives:

  • $20 CRT TV on Facebook Marketplace (or maybe Craigslist)
  • $9 Gana Composite (blury analog) to HDMI
  • $100 RetroTink-2X

If you want to do the fun and interesting things that the GameCube has to offer,you need to mod it.

  • Homebrew softwares
  • Burned backup ISOs (GCMs)
  • Region free play (not just a switch)

Note: 'Homebrew' is a generic term that collectively refers to any indie software.There is not a specific piece of software called 'Homebrew'.

Top Pick

The most convenient thing to use is probably a memory card that's been modified by someone who already has a memory card manager.

  • $35 Softmodded 'Swiss' Memory Card by RazorLeafAttack is a memory card created with GCMM, and requires either Wind Waker or Smash Bros in order to load (via a game save hack).
    • Wind Waker variant (requires disc)
    • Smash Bros variant (requires disc)

Note: If you make a personal connection with RazorLeafAttack on GitHub or elsewhere,you can cut out the middleman and get a better deal on the card.

Hardware Mods

For this part you'll actually have to open the case and get your hands dirty -and it requires special screwdriver bits.There are a few different toolkit permutations, this is the one I've used for GameCube, N64, and 3DS:

  • $12 Nintendo Tools Kit

The mod chip is a simple ATmega8L flashed with XenoAT (a.k.a. Qoob Lite).

  • $6 Xeno GC Mod Chip

When you get it apart you solder the mod chip directly to the board.You don't need to add hook up wire as the back of the board has only solder mask.

If you use fresh flux with fresh solder and a nice, bigger-is-better bevel tip or chisel tip(not a too-small or conical tip), it's very easy to get right (and clean up if you get wrong).

'Softmod', The Easy Way

  • $35 Softmodded 'Swiss' Memory Card is a memory card created with GCMM, and requires either Wind Waker or Smash Bros in order to load (via a game save hack).
    • Wind Waker variant (requires disc)
    • Smash Bros variant (requires disc)
  • $33 Datel SD Media Launcher (£25.63 including US Shipping)
  • $30 Datel Free Loader allows you to load backup disks easily.
  • $24 Datel Action Replay will allow you to load from SD cards, but you have to type in about 100 hex codes to do it.

As far as I can tell, there's no way to softmod your GameCube without having accessto already-modded Homebrew system.

SD Media Launcher (SD Gecko)

As it turns out, the GameCube memory card can be used to read a normal SD cardvia the SPI bus in the EXI (memory card) slot, or the Serial Port 2 on the bottom.

You could literally bust one open and hand-solder the hook-up wire to the pins...or you can by it for just a few dollars:

  • $3 SD to Serial Port 2 (SD2SP2) (slow or fast shipping)
  • $2 Memory Card Converter (slow shipping)
  • $8 SD Gecko (clone) ('free' prime shipping)

You can use this to play backups and indie games without a mod chipusing...pretty much any of the early versions of the launch title discs (Zelda, Smash Bros, Mario Sunshine, etc),BUT you have to have an authentic copy of one of the 3rd party accessory discs(Action Replay, SD Media Launcher, Free Loader etc).

At first I thought it was an SD card with a proprietary pinout in a larger plastic case,but the pure-SD (<= 2GB, not 4gb+ SDHC/SDXC) functionality was developed for animal crossing.

Also, the SD card must be FAT (as in MS-DOS FAT-16) formatted, not FAT-32.

Since the player hardware is relatively inexpensive, but the discs are rare and quite expensive,you might be better off doing the Mod Chip thing (above) and playing from a backup copy instead.

  • GameCube GameBoy Player (Region Free) (don't pay more for the US version)
  • GameCube GameBoy Startup Disc (NTSC Locked) (but... don't buy it)
    • Game Boy Player Start-Up Disc (USA) (v1.02).gcm (iso)
