well I've read that they were a good brand,alot of people use that brand with sucess, but I don't know from personal exp. I've only used full sized HP DVD-R (like in my pics above) but hey! They were on sale at staples LOL! I mean I was going go mini-dvd until I started thinking about $.
I read a few threads where people were saying to use +r .
I just got the Scummvm emulator working from SD card on my cube.

I never had any luck using Nero to burn GC games. So I use IMGBurn, and it works great. Under the settings tab you can make it see both .ISO and .GCM , thus you don't have to rename them.... Dolphin would run them fine because computers don't discriminate between PAL and NTSC signals.
but if you're downloading backups, go for USA and NTSC not PAL.
hope I didn't confuse you too much
best regards......
You hold down Y. But it doesn't work for all PAL games. PAL Mario Sunshine still booted up in PAL. Hulk Ultimate Destruction gives a black screen when trying to force NTSC mode. But I didn manage to get PAL 1080 Avalanche and Minority Report working great. I wonder if there is a compatibility list for this.
Well, if there is a list somewhere, I haven't found it yet. I know Luigi's Mansion PAL dosen't work with it. It's good to hear that somebody get the force region option to work. I was starting to think that maybe it wasn't real. Just out of curiosity, what brand of TV are you using? I got a crappy $60 Wal-mart , Durabrand which is NTSC 60Hz ONLY.

I got mine from Wal-Mart too but paid a bit more than $60 lol. Its a Phillips though which is better quality that Durabrand.
well what isn't better quality than Durabrand LOL!
I'd really like to get a multi region TV. I used to have an old RCA that would display PAL PS2 games with no prob but I don't have it anymore.
also everyone beware of PAL > NTSC converters for game consoles. I have one for PS2, and when I used it, instead of the b/w rolling screen with no sound, I got a rolling color screen with sound... so I called the place that I ordered it from , and they said that I needed to adjust the vertical hold knob, which I don't have. I even E-Mailed Durabrand. They weren't any help though.........

Basically what I'm asking, if I download action replay and burn it, will it work without having any of the other crap that comes with it?
Yes, it will work just fine. But you're gonna have to have a memory card in slot b. I put my old MC 59 in there cuz I wasn't using it for games anymore due to its pathetic 59 blocks of memory. But it holds a ton of AR codes.
Great. I have 2 memeory cards. I can use my same old mem card 59 as well. I just beat Resident Evil 4 on the computer already and do not feel like starting from scratch again...
