Gamecube is region locked. Is it modded? Will it even load that Shrek 2?

[@akirafuudou2037]

DkOldies deserves to be criticized if they actually screwed the pooch on this, however, it was in your best interest to actually hook this console up and test it. Actually receiving the wrong console is a pretty big issue. Gamecubes are region-locked and run at a different voltage according to region. Japanese 'Cubes also only have support for one language in the settings--which is Japanese. Therefore, you'd be able to instantly confirm whether or not you actually got the wrong thing or if the console you got was a lazy shell-swap. If it were the latter, that honestly wouldn't be much of an issue compared to them lying and sending a Japanese one instead of a US one.

[@TheRCBuildersPost]

It's astonishing that DK Oldies is still in business

[@chozen5917]

I bought an N64 from there one time.. I paid for the condition to be good with no appearance issues. It came with scuff mark and huge scratch.

The whole point of the stickers is that the company wants to enforce it, so it's fundamentally illegal.

They probably just switched the shell on the GameCube because if they get a broken console traded in they use the shell for other consoles so you could have hooked it up to see if it worked Edit: how do you know that the cords are cheap and bad if you didn’t try them. That brand is good quality

[@stashmerkin9576]

Maybe the discoloration is from cleaning chemicals?

[@akirafuudou2037]

It's not. That type of discoloration is a form of damage to the outer shell, likely sun damage. It's quite common to see when scouring through listings of Gamecube controllers and it's a clear sign that they weren't well taken care of over the years.

[@Gucciyolo]

Why is it bad to buy a Japanese GameCube if it can be converted to play USA games? Asking a genuine question.

[@redx13zero]

You should have really tried the console out they could have physically modded it so I can play American games there's a way to do some soldering so then it accept American games also they could have just swapped out components the board could have been bad on the American one and use the Japanese shell it was a little bit better condition.

[@Tas-maniandevil]

The funny thing is I looked at their website and “acceptable” states- Acceptable systems are in used condition with cosmetic flaws such as chipping, scratching and/or discoloration but fully functional. So you bought a console and controller in “acceptable” condition…so ultimately you got exactly what you paid for. It’s not even hidden the description is right under the console.

There’s no doubt the accessories and game came from DK and maybe the controller but the console is sus. There’s no holo tag that they put on all consoles even if it’s just a wipe down. They also use bubble wrap and paper since those peanuts aren’t too appreciated with PA sales and ship. The “acceptable systems” are often cosmetically flawed but are internally refurbished and warrantied for a month. I’ve bought several things from them and some weren’t perfect but they did make it right in the end so, if this was a indeed a system you purchased from them and didn’t open up the box from the bottom and swap out for the video so it looked unopened, then why not reach out to them and seek a resolution instead of smearing them?
