Anybody recommend a site where I can get some screws for the case? of if you have some to give away i'll pay the shipping costs.

I have the originals for my case but it seems i have stripped the heads a lil and it doesnt tighten all the way

Thanks

I recommend just getting normal screws with the same size head and a similar length at home depot. I took my gamecube screw to home depot and did just that. They were much better than the screws that came with the case.

Did the same as somegamer went to the nearset hardware store and bought phillipes head same length and size. Easier to get back into your GC if you need to in the future.

Well, if you did not buy the the screw bit like me and bought a new case for your gamecube you have no choice but to get screws with a phillips head or similar. The new gamecube cases are not threaded so you when you first put the screw in you're actually threading the screw hole for the first time. Without the screw bit (I used the bic pen method to remove the screws) there was no way I could provide enough force to thread the holes in a brand new gamecube case without a standard screw and a standard screwdriver.
