>>12145682No one cares about official you cuck. Use your fucking tools for what they are.
>>12145689Dont call him a cuck!
>>12145689Ok, then I'll play gamecube on my computer
>>12145721based
>>12145721How will you comfymaxx on a couch or bed?
>>12145783Connect computer to tv
>>12145783>he doesn't have a HTPC/emulation machine connected to his living room TVngmi
>>12145665The Q is a meme. It's just a GameCube and a DVD player shoehorned into the same box. Literally just a standard GameCube motherboard sandwiched with one for the DVD player. No interaction between the two sides or special functionality. Super lame compared to the PSX.
>>12145665>Is this THE most luxurious way to play the GameCube?Once upon a time maybe. The Wavebird is still essential, and the console needs to be DOL-001 (with the digital video-out port), but any DOL-001 will do. Get a gcvideo adapter for 480p hdmi-out. I use retro-bit prism, but there are others. Install an ODE. I use GCLoader, but there are others. Use memcard emulation in Swiss.Now it's comfy.
>>12145826Yep the slot in drive makes it a ps3 slim before it even existed sry the phatt one wuzit
Interestingly, the Panasonic Q only supports component output for games, not DVD playback. No doubt some DVD cabal bullshit because they thought letting people watch a DVD at higher quality would let people make more bootlegs.
>>12145665>Is this THE most luxurious way to play the redit?ftfy
>>12145682It’s region locked to Japanese without mods too.
>>12145682Cry more. Wii is the answer.
>>12145826>it's a meme, it only does exactly what you want it to do without any extra fluffok fag
>>12145985>MUST. DEFEND. NINTENDO!!!
>>12145985It doesn't though. I want it to do everything at maximum quality through one set of cables. Because it can't, and cost more than buying a better DVD player separately, no one bought the Q
>>12145669>Blurrier analog video outputretard zoomer
>>12145665There is no “luxurious” way to play the Brapcube, cubie. Everything from its dogshit library to lackluster controller is squalid. It’s a platform specifically targeted at poorfag Latinx to pick up from the bargain bin at shartmart so they can join the 6th gen with the cheapest and lowest quality option.
>>12146095i agree with your assessment 100%. even the smoll discs seem like an antipiracy effort designed for the third world.
>>12145665Not even close>>12145826Why do children lie like this? Just pull absolute bullshit out of their ass as "proof" of their other bullshit. All you proved is that you're an underage liar who's never even seen the insides of a Q.>>12145870>Interestingly, the Panasonic Q only supports component output for gamesBut it doesn't support component out for games. It outputs digital and needs an additional device to convert that to component.
>>12145783laptop+controller in my bed is plenty comfy. and is also my only setup cause I dont have a desk
>>12146010>no one bought the QNo one bought the Q, who was as poor as you.
>>12145665Why do you need a dvd player? It's a fucking game console. Also we live in an era of digital media with far greater quality. Why bother with using this for DVD's?
>>12146139I already had a better DVD player though. Mom got it because she's gay for Neo. And I had an Xbox and PC drives. There was no reason for me to import a Q just for a worse DVD player than the ones I already had. I was also a child and wouldn't have known how.
>>12146139A region unlocked Q was <$300Anyone with a McJob who cared enough could have bought one.
>>12145994Damn, one of the strongest cases of conceding I have seen in a while
>>12146139>Be me>Have PS2 and Gamecube>PS2 is already our DVD player, don't need any other DVD player for a good while>Didn't need Gamecube to play DVDsDVD playback was honestly a mistake for home consoles.
>>12146130>Why do children lie like this? Just pull absolute bullshit out of their ass as "proof" of their other bullshit. All you proved is that you're an underage liar who's never even seen the insides of a Q.I don't know, why do you do that? The Q uses a standard GameCube motherboard like any other GameCube. This is extensively fucking documented online, you worthless sack of shit. Specifically it uses the DOL-CPU-10 variant like other early NTSC GameCubes, with the only difference being to the video output components so that the DVD player half of the device can share them. Kill yourself, you retarded piece of shit.
>>12145798>has to turn on computer to play console gamecucked
>>12146095But I liked the controller
>>12146095What is it, 2003 now? Fucking pathetic, my man.
>>12145665If only Nintendo wasn't stupid and up their asses and made the GCN a bit bigger and with a better tray, DVDs would fit perfectly fine (NO, NOT BY GORING IT YOU LITTLE SHIT), therefore wouldn't been an excuse not to make the games better.Nintendo had the perfect compromise between the easy welcoming of the PS2 and the power of the Xbox, and it was the one time they made hardware objectively more powerful then it's biggest competitor in which, the hardware itself wasn't gimped or bottlenecked at all, but the godamn storage media and software was!
>>12146454No one is gonna care about your post.
>>12146735Little discs may have had an anti-piracy aspect to them.
the Q is an overengineered piece of shit.. had one of these a while back and it was a nightmare to take apart/reassemble things. once the DVD half dies, these things are fucking useless because the documentation for these are practically non-existent. you might as well just get a normal GC
>>12145665The wii is the best way because all of the games are free
>>12145689Mods are the opposite of luxurious. A riced out Toyota will never be a BMW.
>>12146771>Nintendo never recovered from their fuckups with the VirtualBoy and the overhyped gimped specs of the N64 while the PSX fucking wreck em.>Did NOT wanted to pay fees to Sony to use their DVD format.Gee I wonder why? (It's not muh piracy you idiots)
>>12145674What's wrong with that?>>12145681That's a shit photoshop. Show me an actual picture of a Wavebird dongle plugged into a Panasonic Q.>>12145721Honestly based.>>12145783NTA but gaming at my desktop is honestly more comfortable for me than trying to game on my TV in bed.
no me
>>12146954You can't actually watch the dvds through the digital out, so using composite defeats the purpose of even having the thing.Also, fuck the wavebird, I'd rather just use a wireless gamecube switch controller with an adapter so I could actually get rumble.Also, the white memory card had a terrible storage capacity, you'd want the black one, this entire argument is terrible I don't know why you didn't think of any of this are you stupid?
>>12146159>Anyone with a McJob who cared enough could have bought one.Underage fag. Anyone who cared about video games back then was a child who wasn't old enough to get a job.
>>12147384g*mers were adults by then. Metal Gear Solid was advertised on ESPN which my kidney stoned 4th grade teacher had on while eating his daily whole pizza from across the street, with half a coke and half a diet coke
>>12146735The mini totally-not-DVDs forced GameCube releases to be games instead of interactive movies, and this has resulted in their having aged much better than the rest of 6rd gen
>>12146735It's better for Nintendo's reputation that their wearable parts not be used for just watching movies. My fat PS3 died because my double divorced (triple married) dad left it running the home screen 24/7, and then someone's grandkid stole it from the back of my car in my condo's garage in a second-ring suburb, which cost a $500 insurance deductable to repair the door destroyed before giving up and smashing a window, for a YLOD PS3. And this was in 2015.Nintendo made correct decisions.
>>12146454>Let me be wrong in detaillmfao
>>12147409no, it made it have a shit library with like 5 games lol. trash like killer7 is as cinematic as you get oh and the fucking awful unskippable cutscenes in shitshine and cringe voice acting, god the shitcube has aged like milk
>>12145665close, but you're also gonna want>pokemon box playing on the q>gcn-gba link cable plugged into the controller port>other side plugged into a gameboy player>gb player plugged into the miyamoto autographed gamecube>sammy keyboard controllerit's more the most luxurious way of playing gba, really
>>12145681The stock receiver is not that big. The tray clears them just fine. I still rather use them on more standard GameCubes though. There are newer receivers that are Bluetooth compatible which are smaller that would be better for the Q.
>>12147736actually, looking into this, i can't figure out where it ended uphttps://consolevariations.com/collectibles/nintendo-gamecube-gameplay-2004-miyamoto-consolehttps://old.reddit.com/user/Offline_Ivo
>>12145665Nah, it's actually pic related.
>>12147753Almost completely correct except that the WiiU pro controller on the WiiU is the real way to play GameCube games
>>12147786Absolutely not. The Wii U Pro Controller has diamond-shaped ABXY and doesn't even have analog L and R. It's a bastardization to play GameCube that way. That controller isn't even good for Wii U games because of its poor ergonomics compared to the Switch Pro controller. It's much better to connect the Switch controller to the Wii U via Koopair. The only good thing about that controller is that its battery (which is the same as the Switch Pro controller) lasts longer.
>>12147741Do you ever play games, or do you just take pictures for 4chin dot org? You're in almost every damn thread doing the same kind of pic.
>>12146095>It’s a platform specifically targeted at poorfag LatinxEvery Latinx was playing GTA and DBZ fighting games on PS2, Gamecube was the white geek console
>>12147852never, i didn't know people play games actually
>>12147786>Wii U's shitty upscalingnah
>>12147741Why have four WaveBirds on one GameCube, when you could have one WaveBird on four GameCube? It broadcasts in one direction, so you can control any number of GameCubes with one :OYou could have any number of multiplayer games going at the same time :O :OIt would be interesting to see how deterministic they are OwOAnd this isn't limited to only GameCube games. They could have Game Boy Players for the entire GB/GBC/GBA libraries
>>12146095Oh hey the cubie guy is back.Hey cubie guy!
>>12145665You are absolutely going to need this
>>12147936Since 2023 [1] [2], the poor image quality of the Wii U has been a solved problem. Both Nintendont for GameCube games and USB Loader GX for Wii games introduce the possibility of removing the deflicker filter or even rendering the framebuffer in vWii mode. My recommendation is also to force games to 4:3, since anamorphic widescreen reduces image quality [3]. The result is excellent.[1] https://github.com/wiidev/usbloadergx/releases/tag/v3.0-r1280[2] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzJth1XFCBU[3] https://gist.github.com/vaguerant/eb9c7fba35f118ccb32c5df22b2b0f35
I got a broken one, which i fixed up and modded. It was already modded to play PAL dvd's before i got it, but i added a GC dual HDMI mod and a flippydrive optical drive emulator (mostly so that i could play my PAL games on it). Got a custom backplate to go along with that, and changed some basic stuff like the fan and battery. Also got a 8bitdo wireless kit for the GC controllerIts been a fun (if somewhat frustrating) project, and ive been having fun playing trough the prime games on it. I use it as my primary gamecube at the moment.
>>12145665I'm pretty sure you can connect 4 Gamecubes with 4 GBA Players and 4 TVs together to play games like Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, and The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures. Not to mention a few 4-player GBA games.
>>12148501Sleek, clean, very nice.
>>12147991So you could use one wavebird controller to play all four ports?
>>12145665It screams "upper middle class, trying to act like they have "fuck you" money."
>>12148524thanks. There is just one final touch im waiting on, which is the memcard gc pro.
>>12146095the post is straight coal
>>12147741Gee Billy, your mom lets you have four wavesbirds?
>>12145665the Wavebird is more than just "wireless controller"
>>12148523you would need 4 for four swords, but 5 for four swords adventures
>>12149012how so?
>>12145665Wasn't there a special version of the GameBoy Player for the Panasonic Q?
>>12150221Yes, the original doesn't fit on the Q, so they made a version with a different shell and slightly longer motherboard so the cartridge slot and link port reach the edge of the Q.There are 3D-printed shells for converting the original to fit on the Q, but it comes out kind of scuffed because of the size differences.
>>12150303Forgot the pic.
>>12150303>size difference mnnnghhh
