Well, I was talking to my friend about GC emulating, and I came up with a stupid idea of fusing a gamecube into a pc. We did this on AIM, so there are a lot of short (and stupid) posts in the middle. This is long.

18:00] TiCbeast: all comps come with an extra HD space
[18:00] Melonman64: yeah...
[18:00] TiCbeast: we put the GC HD in teh empty spot
[18:00] Melonman64: hmm
[18:00] TiCbeast: all we need to do is wire an adapter
[18:00] Melonman64: but the other components are used to read the game
[18:01] TiCbeast: thats where the emulator comes into play
[18:02] TiCbeast: we just need a way to connect the emulator info to the GC hardrive
[18:03] TiCbeast: because the GC HD only has info on spinnin the disk
[18:03] Melonman64: but... OH!
[18:03] Melonman64: the emulator only does half the work!
[18:03] TiCbeast: yeah
[18:03] TiCbeast: cause we can't hook the whole GC up to the pc


Well, is this just some half-baked idea, or could it work?

Oh. My. God. My friend is a genius. He is so stupid most of the time. Then, out of the blue, this. Wow, I need to congratulate him.

You fiend.
darn right

the problem with hooking up the GC HD to the PC is the adapter type. nintendo isn't nice enough to use a simiar type of adapter to the ones found in PCs

what i'm saying is the little wire thingy that connects the HD to the motherboard would be a different size than the one in the CG
