see, i love my wavebird, and haven't experienced any type of problems with third party games at all. in fact, i think it works better for games like madden and ikaruga much better than my other controller. another question, is there a gamecube vga box out there to use? i would love to add super monkey ball to my cabinet 8)

you can buy a hacked component cable online that does straight vga but you gotta get them from hong kong

if you got a component cable pick up a transcoder from www.xboxvga.com

get the standalone one plug in the component cables on one end and plug in the vga on the other it looks perfect

yup, a reverse flight stick hack: used the base of the flight stick with the handle of a competiton, tho i had to have the handle fitted by a freind who works in plastics

its not functional at all in non-anolog games but for psone and n64 it handles very nicely

lemme see if i can find a link to the stick i used

As BombProofPlane mentioned, you can get VGA out of the GameCube (native) by using a hacked cable (similar to how the DC works).  You don't need a transcoder.

Now the down side, more than half the GameCube games do not support 480P, Super Monkey Ball being one of them (SMB2 may support it though).

if this is a arcade monitor that shouldn't matter as arcade monitors can sync down to 15khz

i mentioned the transcoder because i didn't think he wanted to buy a cable from hong kong

alright, well, i'll look into that bit... does anyone else think this forum is a really great idea? this'll save half the main forum's "clutter" itself, y'think?

yes in the future it will also make it easier to find past references about repeated console topics unlike searching the cluttered main forum
