The GameCube - BumblebeeCody - 07-07-2012 07:14 AM

When the GameCube was released there were initially 3 GameCube ports in the arse of the console.

One port for the GameCube Gameboy Advance player

And the other port for the GameCube modem attachment

The last port was never used in the GameCubes lifespan and was later removed on later GameCube models

It's rumoured that the other unused port was for a possible RAM increase or Memory increase.

No, I actually did not know what the other slot with the 2 spots was for. I knew one, because I used the game boy adapter a few times.

What was that modern gamecube thing (Or Gamecube Modern as the post says) anyways?

Modern? It says Modem, dude. It's to let you connect your GameCube online. Only a few games supported it like Skys of Arcadia

What? It greatly enhances the GUI of a console

Holding the "Z" Button on the Gamecube's startup plays an alternative start-up song.
Holding "Z" on four Gamecube controllers plays yet another alternative start-up song!

From how far away I sit from my computer screen (it's most likely further away from you), Modern and Modem look almost identical. Sorry.

Plus, your text is smaller. So, that doesn't help either.

I deleted system32 just so I could post this. Totally increased my megahurtz. Thanks, MaxMyPC dot com!

Um, I'm not sure if it is relevant, but my Gamecube has three ports. I got the system at it's initial release I believe. I'm not sure if the third one is the rumored port.

*Off topic*
I tried that but it maxed out my CPU. Fortunately, I downloaded "Registry Cleaner Pro xXx QuickScopez 2014" and it cleaned up all my visual basic.

Through the Internet of course. I just downloaded more RAM so now my crossfire GPUS can access the ROM faster Smile
