To purchase an SD Card to GameCube Memory Card adapter. Look for "Swiss Boot Loader and Homebrew Utility Tool on Nintendo Gamecube Memory Card 251". eBay user kingkodongo is a seller from Japan who I bought from. The Wind Waker save exploit is fastest to load and requires the least button presses (but it's not the only way, if you don't have the game). To purchase a GameCube Memory Card with a hacked game save and Swiss on it. There are proponents for the Datel Media Launcher, so it’s worth looking into which you’d prefer. I’ll be detailing the hacked game save method for launching Swiss, as that’s the method I went with. The first thing to address is that you can't use homebrew or launch Swiss without already having a hacked Memory Card (or Datel Media Launcher). I got a lot of the information here, so you can read that for various other methods of getting homebrew and Swiss on your system. I won't bore you with all the dead-ends and tribulations of my journey, but will instead make this more of a step-by-step process for newbs so the information is out there and easy to digest. Second point of attack - getting homebrew and the GameBoy Interface onto your console! Anyhoo more info on RGB and Sync types can be found here.

This makes sense now I think about it, as RGB SCART is an analogue signal, prone to interference and it's also a port that went unused on my TV for years. Putting the vacuum cleaner in there on max before then firing some compressed air into the port fixed the issue entirely (there, now it's online and someone can find this post to help them). It took me ages to pin down that it was the TV port and not the cables that were the issue, seeing as no-one else on the 'net seemed to have the same problem. Worth writing here is that the RGB SCART input on my TV was prone to flickering and annoying image banding from various sources. They are merely there for those using Monitors or video set-ups that play nicer with the CSYNC signal method. Any GameCube cables that claim to use the arguably superior "CSYNC" method are just separating the existing Sync signal into its own channel and do not improve quality. While this is arguably the RGB signal most prone to interference, good cable shielding should give you a nice clean image.

Plugging in that bad boy made an instant difference even using the standard GameBoy Player Software disc - I could actually see individual pixels for once! Blurry as they may be.Īnother thing to note about RGB video signal is the type of "Sync" your cable uses, without going into too much depth here - the GameCube can only output Sync on Luma via RGB SCART (and only the PAL GameCube at that). These are the best stock signal outputs you can get before shelling out for a Component Cable. Only the PAL GameCubes can output RGB natively, while NTSC GameCubes can instead output S-Video, so be careful of what your system actually is capable of.

Plus my Samsung SQ04 1080p TV has an RGB SCART input, so I knew I'd be groovy in that regard. (This is going to get in-depth, so look for the different headings in bold).Īs I have PAL GameCube ( and I'm a reasonable person) I didn't feel the need to splash out on the notoriously expensive Component Cables, so I opted for the " GC RGB SCART (PAL) PACKAPUNCH PRO" cable from .uk. So I thought I'd post my findings/journey in one place. I imagine a lot of people who start down this path from scratch will have - a GameCube, a GameBoy Player and a Widescreen LCD HDTV.

This is meant to be an absolute beginners guide, from square one.

Plus a lot of set-up guides for the Swiss Homebrew Launcher and GameBoy Interface assume that the user has a GameCube Component Cable and is able to output digital 480p video (all analogue outputs on all stock GameCubes are limited to 480i and below).

Like many of you I'm sure, I've delved into GameCube softmodding to get the cleanest picture quality for the GameBoy Player, as the default software is not only blurry, but it also has uneven pixel scaling.Īs I'm also sure most of you here are aware, all the information on the matter is either scattered across the 'net or just plain not there - leaving the majority of us to fend for ourselves with trial and error. Edit: Thanks to Extrems for clarification on a lot of this - I've adjusted the original post to avoid any misinformation.
