This console has the following modifications installed:

Pluto IIx HDMI Board w/ GCVideo v3.1 – Replaces the digital port's native component output with HDMI. Outputs in color-rich, brilliant 16x9 480p, on any computer monitor or flat screen television. Includes internal menus for line-doubling, scanlines, and more. Menu is accessible by holding L + R + X + Y for 3 seconds. Navigate GCVideo menu with X + Y.

GCVideo-DVI v3.1:

GCVideo DVI interfaces from the signals on the Digital Video Port of the Gamecube to a DVI video signal. It targets a few FPGA boards specially developed for it by third parties as well as the Pluto IIx HDMI FPGA board from KNJN, which is only recommended for development purposes and not for end-users.

Features

• direct digital video output with no analog intermediate for best quality

• optional linedoubler to convert 240p/288p/480i/576i modes to 480p/576p

• optional scanline overlay with selectable strength hybrid factor

• SPDIF digital audio output

• user-friendly on-screen configuration

• on-screen menus controlled with a Gamecube controller or an IR remote control

• (certain boards only) auxillary analog video output

Limitations

• Linedoubling of 480i/576i modes looks very ugly. If your display accepts these modes directly, it is recommended to not use linedoubling for them.

• The primary target of the project is the DVI output, the analog output (if available) is purely a "bonus feature". Some DVI output settings may disable certain analog output options.

• Although GCVideo tries to make the output signal as standards-compliant as possible, some homebrew software uses video parameters that are too far away from normal video standards to correct them. Such homebrew software may not work with some displays.

• GCVideo does not attempt to read the capabilities of the display, so it is possible to set the output to something that the display does not support, resulting in a corrupted or no picture.

Picoboot Mod – A Raspberry Pi Pico is pre-flashed with Picoboot, soldered, wrapped, and installed into the console, allowing it to boot directly into Swiss or from the optical drive at power on. An SD2SP2 is necessary to store Swiss and your games library.

Raspberry Pi Pico

The Raspberry Pi Pico series is a range of tiny, fast, and versatile boards built using RP2040, the flagship microcontroller chip designed by Raspberry Pi in the UK

RP2040

Designed by Raspberry Pi, RP2040 features a dual-core Arm Cortex-M0+ processor with 264kB internal RAM and support for up to 16MB of off-chip flash. A wide range of flexible I/O options includes I2C, SPI, and - uniquely - Programmable I/O (PIO). These support endless possible applications for this small and affordable package.

3.5mm Gold-Plated Audio Jack – Added to the rear I/O of the console, allowing for external audio, headphones, or Bluetooth transmitters.

Sliding Region Switch – Alternates console region from NTSC-U to NTSC-J and back. Changes console menu text from English to Japanese and back. Allows console to recognize memory cards initially formatted in either region.

Battery Holder Mod – Replaceable battery holder and new CR2032 are added to the controller port PCB, assuring another 20 years of life for the system clock battery.

Custom BLUE LEDs – We replace your factory power LED. We also add LEDs to the wells of your controller port PCB, illuminating them.

Backlit LED Fan Upgrade – Replaces the OEM GameCube fan with a German made Noiseblocker BlackSilent 14dB, 50mm upgrade. A glow-in-the-dark 3D printed bracket is made, and a wiring adapter is created. LEDs are installed to illuminate the fan assembly from within the console during power on.

NB-BlackSilent Fan XS-1 50mm

One of the most popular and best sold Ultra-Silent-Classic-Design fans since 2005. Constantly developed and enhanced.

• developed in Germany

• silent NB-NanoSLI® bearing NEW!

• silent NB-EKA P2 Drive NEW!

• Makrolon® rotor with anti-dust technology

• reinforced fibreglass PBT-frame

• 50 cm cable with high-quality textile sheath

• NB-slics for vibration-free assembly

SD2SP2 – Micro SD card reader installed into Serial Port 2, for use with Swiss and various other interface programs. Necessary for use with Picoboot.

The SD2SP2 PCB allows a microSD card to plug into Serial Port 2 on your GameCube.

SD2SP2 is supported by the latest Swiss update from Extrems and Emukidid.

*Before purchasing please ensure your GameCube has a Serial Port 2 port and that you are able to launch the latest software above.

*SD card is not included. The SD card needs to be formatted FAT32 and the maximum size supported by Swiss is 2TB.

*Manufactured with PCB thickness of 1.2mm and enig plating.

Recapped Optical Drive – Sometimes the optical drive can fail, causing the console to stop reading disc media. Replacing the capacitors on the optical drive PCB fixes this problem and ensures another few decades of use before requiring another service. 

Will ship in USPS Medium Flat Rate Box with insurance and tracking number.
