Whats up with that update -SuperTed-

Or has anybody else tried this yet. Has there been any progress with that modchip that's being developed?

Nope...Nothing yet,I think the modchip won't be out until 2005.I haven't heard any progress from it or anything yet,but I am sure there is hidden truth to the modchip for the GameCube we don't know about.

Extracting the bootcode wasn't as easy as it sounds.
Now making a multisession ISO with both bootcodes implented is a real pain in the....

So no luck so far.

But like I said, if I tried a burned disc on my GC I'll tell if it works.

Just wondering around

MAN...by that time GC will be obsolete, then thier would be no point in modding the GC.

OH well...I guess ill wait till the new GC comes out and see if that one can be moded

Like this version of GC.

If the next GC will be harder to mod then will be no hope since no one can mod this version of GC.

I doubt the new one is gonna be easier since the drive inside of it has Nintendo and the Sega team working on it.I am sure they have some double braded code in there where it is hard to boot a backup from.I think Nintendo has gone downhill and Sony and Microsoft are gonna be at the top.The reason why I think this is the reason for games.I don't think Nintendo is making enough games.It takes them maybe 3 or 4 times longer to produce a game,and on the other hand Sony is making games quick as hell.The Xbox has probably the best graphics since it has a nvidia graphics card in it.I couldn't really say where to start with finding out how to crack a system,but it should start with the drive inside of it.Then it should start with the motherboard of it.After that it should be test and discover I would say.

I think the nvidia chip beats it.I have a Xbox and I have a GameCube also.The graphics coming from the Xbox are way better than the GameCube,no lie.It might not look proven,but it is.The gamecube want to stick with the cartoon appearance too much,so in my oppinion the Xbox has beaten them.Nintendo hasn't proven there graphics yet is what I am saying.

It may WHUP any console game graphics, but that wouldn't get me to buy a GC if I didn't already have one (by the way it's collecting dust...literally)

Blah!!!geestar20 is right the games out right now for the GC do not have the graphics the new Zelda has and the Resident Evil 4 game.I think once those games comes out then it might make a difference,but right now the GameCube is really not putting anything out that is worth investing in the system.I also seen Nintendo selling the DS system which is the portable system selling for 150 dollars.I don't really get why a portable system is gonna cost more than a actual console system.The graphics on the new portable system are not that much improved from the gameboy advanced,and I think the Sony PSP has got that beat also.I really don't know where Nintendo is gonna end up in the next couple of years,but right now it isn't looking good at all.

I'd love to see microsoft make a hand held. It could have windows and apps, that'd rock.

Yeah, and it could crash five times daily and it could have straps so you could wear it as a backpack.

the microsoft hand held has been out for a long time.. its called any pocketpc you grab ;)

as for the nintendo's graphics sucking... sure they aren't always REALISTIC graphics, but come on.. the gameplay is where it counts and i havent found many PS2 games or Xbox games for that matter that have kept my interest as long as nintendo ones... GTA3 just made me want to puke, i was a hardcore GTA and GTA 2 fan and then they went 3d assness that i really didnt like...

halo 2? fable? too little too late... sony is only still around because they're soo loose on the development kit for the ps2.. they let almost any and every developer get their grubs on it, and it shows.. theres like 9000 games that suck, and a good 200 that are good (yes i'm an anti-PS2 person but i do know some games are good so i'll be generous lol) you dont find that in the gamecube section, they've stuck to the traditional sports, kids, parties, and nintendo 1st party games that are almost a gauranteed good game.

pikmin 2 is a REALLY fun game if you havent played it (dust off your cube, press that pretty little open button and throw in pikmin 2... its not a bad game)

now sony's psp, i don't think will take over the portable gaming scene, for the price of it (estimated at 300$ retail from the start opposed to the 150$ for the DS) you could get a DS with nice fun games for a portable and then you could buy a dvd player that plays dvds/mp3s/vcds and you'd still have a good 50$ chump change to spare. the only thing the psp might be able to stay around for is because it has those multimedia functions i dont think its going to make a big hit in the portable department because those games are really just ps2 games in disguise which i dont think would be good hand helds...

yeah sorry bout the long reply :) please super ted get some good news for us !

a pocketpc is not a handheld console doofus. and i meant made by microsoft not a pocket pc, they are not made by microsoft as the x-box is they are made by electronics companys and have windows installed onto them.

the gamecube chip wasn't meant to be more powerful than the xbox video chip... essentially, in PC terms the xbox is about equal to a geforce 4 (not the mx :P ) and the gamecube is roughly somewhere around the older Radeon 8500 or so?

ArtX had finished the work on the GC chip BEFORE ATi aquired them and put them to work on the new radeon lines... anyway, it doesn't matter. Nintendo basically messed everything up with their tight development policy on the N64, and they sorta changed that with the gamecube.. they're still making progress but they have to rely on their large 1st party game library to sell consoles.

and Sony doesn't actually make very many (any at all?) games themselves, per se.. it's mostly technically 2nd party development. ANYWAY, Nintendo's definitely made some bad judgement calls, but they're learning (albeit slowly, but surely) from their mistakes and won't be going anywhere anytime soon.. they still make a decent chunk of change.

So back to the topic at hand, good luck superted :D

calling me a doofus as you say hand held console... yes... consoles and hand helds ARE not nearly the same

and i was joking about the pocketpc remark, but by your confusing handhelds (such as the gameboy's, gamegears, n-gage, all that fun stuff) with consoles (ps2, jaguar, n64, dreamcast and what have you) you might as well call the pocketpc a handheld.. its operating system is from microsoft which practically makes them just as useful as any other microsoft product. oh did i mention theres also games for them? so there you go, you got yourself a handheld gaming device lol

and THATS why pocketpc is a handheld by microsoft...

oh and microsoft doesnt make any hardware in the xbox either so uhm whats the difference between a pocketpc and the xbox? not a whole hell of a lot except who produces and distributes them...


kthxbye

Actually the xbox video is basically a Geforce3 ti-500 slightly ramped up. Its not nearly as fast as a Geforce4!!! Its a 233MHz custom chip named XGPU, developed by Microsoft and nVIDIA and it was based on the GF3 Ti core.
