GC Turbo

a passion project for a modular gamecube console, customizable in nearly every way!

Any Major Updates On Github @ https://github.com/GCTurbo/GameCube-Turbo

for this project you'll need:

• A working gamecube dol-101 motherboard (with SP1 & SP2 REMOVED), working fan AND controller port pcb
• A Soldering setup (preferably one that also has a heat gun attatchment; electric solder sucker HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR PORT REMOVAL.)
• Both Momentary & Latching 19mm Ring Led Buttons (Arcade styles) [Listed Below]
• Gamecube dol-001 lid jewel or acrylic disk (listed below)
• M2, M3, M4 size screws mostly 6-10mm along with matching metal threaded heat inserts otherwise you'll have broken plastic. (Both listed below)
• (4) Main screws in the bottom are 30-35mm M3 screws, there are (4) M3 nuts that need to be placed internally while the "Top half" is printing, without those nuts you will have nothing to tighten into.
• mag lid uses (8) 5x2.8mm magnets to keep it closed and shut.
• PLA+
• Extra Long Metric Hex Screwdrivers (listed below)

Power board can be original or upgraded to USB-C.
Video-out can be original analogue multi-out Or upgraded to HDMI w/Bitfunx Or Pluto-II

You’ll need to make your own power distribution board (basically a mini power extension) with the protoboard listed below cut into chunks along with the reset button jumps. Also the power distribution board mount is screwed in from underneath memory card slot A with two 20mm M2 screws (DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.)

Tolerances might be a little tight; this is about as far as I'm willing to take this project, so if there's anything missing that you feel like building or adding on by all means help build this project into your own!
