Thanks, but it translates to 70 bucks where I come from, not including shipping+handling, and its PAL, so I'd have to use my armax to swap for it first. An NTSC one for a bit cheaper would be sooo much better if anyone knows of one.

I think the site just says PAL because it's a European site. I really REALLY doubt there is a different MDP for one format or another. They should all be universal.

The real problem is getting the disk for your cube that says Max Drive PRO - it has to be the PRO disk. I would guess that any of the max drives that connect to your computer would work, as long as you have the PRO disk.

the link is on page 34 of this thread.

You are going to have to cut & paste the thread.

You do know that this is from a uk store and it's the PAL version, right?

no, you didn't know because you didn't want to read the thread (at 35 pages long, I don't really blame you), but if you had started backwards, maybe you would of seen it. =)

Unfortunetly, us NTSC users are bummed. Have to find a used one on ebay or something similiar.
But with the prices of the mod chips falling, you can pick up a chip that will let you load dols thru a bba.

guess it all depends on what you want the mad drive pro for.

Well to be honest I posted that and ventured, the reason I never seen it before is because its not in a blue url, underlined link, it just blends in with the normal text making it hard to find. Yes its a shame the max drive pro is limited, ebay I have found no luck so far, but meh I was thinking about a chip but I dunno............

Has anybody verified the claim that the so-called "PAL Max Drive Pro" is actually PAL only?

The GC software disk might be a PAL version, but that only means black and white, with rolling screen if you have a 60Hz TV with no screen lock. But it would still be useable, it might just be a pain in the arse until you got used to it.

Personally, I'd think that would still be better than spending who knows how much for a bba + PSO or a mod chip.

okay i've done some scouring .. first I ordered a max drive pro from codejunkies, and received the following:

Your order, ########, has been authorised. Unfortunately, we are awaiting stock for this product. Unfortunately we no longer stock this item

So I kept looking, found a french website that sells them, too bad they don't ship to canada :(

http://www.priceminister.com/offer/buy/4...e-Gamecube.html
(mislabeled?)

I'm awaiting a response from datel and codejunkies.

Gamecube mod chips have dropped in price at a lot of places.
You can get a Xeno for under $10.
I'm going to buy a Ninja Mod & tool, with shipping will be under $25 ($14 for NM, 4 for tool, 5 for shipping)

Would be less if I went for the Xeno or the other one.

Defiently cheaper then getting the datel max drive pro. Of course, you have to install it. Which, if you've done some soldering before, have a steady hand and have patience, it shouldn't be too hard.

Hopefully I won't be eating those words... =)

I'm still planning on making an SD adapter when I can get some decent directions for it.

nyder,
Could you give us some links for these mod chips and some advice on a chip to purchase? With the MD Pro getting harder and harder to find and maybe the support going away some time soon I may actually consider a mod chip. Plus the GAMECUBE is getting replaced by the Wii I'm assuming.

I've been doing a little research on this topic and found this per [url=http://modthatcube.pxn-os.com/main.htm][/url]

You can purchase either the Max Drive Pro or the Action Replay Evo Edition directly from http://www.codejunkies.com. You will notice that both of these items are ?usually? on backorder. Just order the unit and it will be shipped to you shortly as these items ?are always listed on backorder?. There are two versions of the Evo pack in production so make sure the one you purchase includes the "Max Drive Pro" and not the normal "Max Drive".

So from what I getting is that the action replay evo edition will work for this softmod method, only thing is I'm having just as many problems trying to hunt one of these down for the gamecube
