I got an awesome custom jewel for the Nintendo GameCube from @labfifteenco2176 and I figured it needed a special custom build to make the best of it.
In this video I'll revive a tired black GameCube and restore it with custom paintwork, a modchip based on a Raspberry Pi Pico, an accessible SD card slot to run games directly from the card (with the optical disc drive remaining intact and functional) and this beautiful custom jewel with my channel's yellow branding.
I love how it turned out; it was a fun build too.
