Nintendo GameCube Clear Translucent/Transparent Shell Console with Region Switch & White LED
This listing is for Nintendo GameCube console that with clear shell and has region flip switch & White power LED.
This console is originally a Japanese console and we added the region flip switch so that you can change region between NTSC-U/C (North America) and NTSC-J (Japan). For changing the region, just flip the flip switch up or down.
Up position is NTSC-J and down position is NTSC-U/C.
You can simply turn on the console with lid open (or without inserting a disc) and see the language of the console menu as well.
Memory Card need to be region specific and you will need two cards (one for US games and one for Japanese games) if you are planning to play in both region. Memory card itself is region free but it needs to be formatted to the exact region. If the region is different, then it will prompt to format to the right region when you go to the memory card screen on the console menu. The data will be erased by formatting so please be careful!!
The top jewel / name plate has a protective clear plastic film that you can peel off.
Backup battery was replaced with replaceable battery holder with a new battery so that you can open the console and replace the battery without soldering skill in the future.
We have replaced a capacitor(s) that is(are) related to the drive unit and also adjusted the laser strength to the optimal setting.
