This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I KNEW I MISSED SOMETHING!

Opening that case and seeing the two discs was mind-blowing at the time. I remember getting stuck and scouring gamefaqs, only to ask on the forums and was told I was stuck on the "hard" path.

Thanks for reminding me, I'll add it :)

Simply put, yes. This reminds me, I have to look into using the GameCube startup animation for booting my computer

I don't know about objectivity being the best. I do remember a video where the dropped that generation off a stairs and was only one that worked, although the lid had to be held down. Also I remember hearing it was both the most powerful of its gen and wasn't sold at a loss.

It was definitely my favorite console. Got into the wii but overtime I grew out of concals and moved onto doing all my gaming on pc.

Back in the web forum days, I joined a gaming one where one bloke had a falling out with his girlfriend and so she picked up his GameCube and hurled it at the wall.

After kicking her the fuck out, he expected to have to buy a new one (GameCube, not girlfriend), only to find very superficial damage to the casing and that it still worked perfectly fine.
