Despite Nintendont being around for 5 years, fixing many performance issues with Gamecube games there's been a ton of homebrew software and hardware development for the Gamecube. At first it was under the belief that the gamecube provides better image quality, turns out this is a bug fixed in later revision consoles and now with software it's fixed.

Without a doubt a Wii is the best way to play Gamecube games, the only advantage the GC having over it is the game boy player support.

Why is it so many devs worked so hard on the gamecube? Why was all the homebrew pushed for that but nobody mentions the performance advantage of nintendont?

The Wii requires the HDMI mod to have true digital audio output, doesn't it? Aside from that it sounds like you might be right. Is the graphical fix applied to all games using Nintendont or does it require fucking around to work right?

In the settings menu for homebrew like nintendont and usbloadergx, there should be an option for a "480p fix" make sure it's enabled. There you go, perfect component video output.

Even still, assuming you already had a Gamecube, a GBA, and you bought FSA when it launched, you needed to buy three more GBAs and three GC-GBA link cables (FSA came with one bundled already). I don't remember how much the cables retailed for, but I'll be generous and assume $20, and GBA SPs were $100. So you're still spending an additional $360 just to play one game (and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, I guess) multiplayer with three friends, assuming your friends don't have GBAs or link cables of their own. Nintendo are scam artists.

Yeah it was kind of a shitshow. My friend had the game but we never played multiplayer because we didn't have a second cable.
Idk how many people would buy extra GBAs just for this game. It was probably assumed that each kid had their own GBA, you just needed the extra cables.

That's not even where the idea falls apart, its reasonable to think the target audience would all own Gameboys and Gamecubes, it was reasonable to think they'd all own link cables to use other features in solo games. The real problem is that you'd have to assume kids would be ok with only having ONE of the four kids owning the game. Or at least only having one person with the save data.

>>	Anonymous Wed Jul 21 17:04:17 2021 No.7967878 >>7966803 You have to be incredibly simpleminded to ask a question like that. Sometimes trying new stuff falls flat like this did, sometimes it prints money like the DS and Wii.
