Used. Tested and working. Reads discs correctly. This is a Japanese NTSC-J system, but it can play both NTSC-J (Japan) and NTSC-U/C (North America) games. It is not compatible with PAL-region games. Please note: the serial numbers on the console and the instruction manual do not match. Faulty capacitors have been replaced.
The console shows scuffs and minor scratches from normal use. The area around the nameplate also shows scuffs and scratches. The controller shows scuffs and a few minor scratches.
Includes a genuine Nintendo power adapter, official cable(s), the instruction manual, and two additional paperwork inserts. The box shows wear such as scuffs, scratches, corner wear, creases, peeling, and bends.
What We Did Before This Ships
Every console we sell is opened up and serviced by hand.
We don't just confirm it powers on — we look inside.
This unit was fully disassembled and cleaned internally; dust was removed from all components.
All boards and electrical contacts were cleaned with ethanol and a fast-drying, residue-free electronics cleaner to remove oxidation and residue.
Moving mechanical parts were lubricated with a light application of silicone grease for smooth, quiet operation. (We do not apply grease to electrical contacts — they are cleaned only.)
Electrolytic capacitors are replaced only when there is visible corrosion or leakage — nothing more, nothing less. For console families known for capacitor failure, a full recap is performed as standard.
If a console cannot be properly restored, we do not sell it.
After reassembly, the unit is tested with an actual game: video, sound, and controller input are all confirmed.
Before we seal the box, we power the console on one more time and confirm it is still working.
Every console includes 30 days of support after it reaches you.
A note on power: this console uses Japan's 100V standard. Buyers in North America (120V) are advised to use a step-down transformer or a multi-voltage power supply; buyers in Europe (230V) will require a step-down transformer to use an original 100V adapter safely.
A note on region: This is a Japanese Nintendo GameCube. The console's IPL ROM enforces a regional restriction — North American and PAL discs will not boot on this unit without a hardware modification or a third-party bypass disc (such as Datel FreeLoader).
If anything here isn't covered, just ask — questions are always welcome.
