I saw this picture of a Gamecube prototype on this article from IGN today : psp.ign.com/articles/116/1160915p1.html Is that a real prototype? I have not seen that until that IGN article.
@omgpwn666 Ive seen lots of different prototypes and there really only seems to be three sort of variations, there is this one, there is a vertical tower and there is one that looks more like a GC but is red and has lots of different bits to it. I have no idea what the hell that thing is on IGN lol
@omgpwn666 HAHA, my mate who this dolphin belongs too has another 2 or 3 now so i'm going to do another video when he next gets a chance to bring one or more of them over.
Surprisingly, the Gamecube had 3D Circuitry for developers who had wanted to implement 3D into their games. But I guess that wasn't promoted and was just left there. Now, we have the 3DS. For all we know, the Wii may have 3D circuitry- considering the recent test Nintendo R&D did with Mario Kart Wii in 3D.
Great review buddy! That thing is just so awesome, and maybe if he ever got it to work there would be some crazy unreleased Zelda or Mario. The thing would go for thousands lol :P
@911BONEZ Haha thanks man, it is pretty sweet! My mates managed to find a few leads on some carts for it so hopefully have it a bit more operational next time!
@SomeSortaGamer Not a great deal, though I know there are a heck of alot out there. Ive seen a handful for the xbox and the Dreamcast but there not something you get to see all that often unfortunately!
what's kind of cool is i have a couple of papers that came from dreamcast game for product registration, and for "what other consoles you have" it has the Nintendo dolphin written down. Guess Nintendo told everyone that's what it was called before it came out or something/
@noideac That sounds pretty cool, I know exactly the sort of leaflet things you mean, i'll have to check out some of the older ones I have knocking about!
@Kefka44 If only! When I was editing the video, the first image I put in of the apple power cube dissapeard in the timeline and I couldn't find it. So i just presumed it hadn't pasted properly. Then after the videos finished compressing what pops up! My bad!
That's a sweet looking system, and thanks for sharing. That Dolphin logo looks pretty cool, and your friend is very lucky to have one of these. Cracked me up at the begining when you said you got this and the Nintendo WCC for free. lol Nice work.
@Gamester81 Thanks mate! Yeah its an amazing system and was really good of my friend to bring it over! Glad I gave you a bit of a chuckle! The dolphin logo is really cool, im pretty sure it's hidden around places in Delfino Plaza in super mario sunshine, i'm sure a mate of mine said theres some hidden in one of the zelda games too!
Excellent review mate! and you certainly had me going at the beginning as well lol! and i'm also with you if they had of called it the dolphin it wouldn't have sold! and lol at the rainbow fairy dust name. i've Fav this video! :D
@Chipsturs Thanks a lot mate! It's a little worrying that while I was editing the gamecube image to be the "Rainbow Fairy dust" model, I actually started to think it looked good! lost a few man points on that one!
@retrogamerSam I know I only realised after the final edit lol. The first Image of the Apple Cube seemed to dissapear during editing, so I had to add another. Now I know what happened to the first one at least!
