Outdated but Used to Stream January 5, 2009

Not so much for playing but I stream gamecube games to my desktop computer and play them through an emulator unless my friends are over.
Sweet deal.

Hey, If you ever had a gamecube game such as Phantasy Star Online, or some other gamecube game with internet play, the Gamecube Broadband Adapter is the best way to go. After I got mine, just plugged it into the router and everything was working fine.
 Does what it's suppposed to do... April 26, 2008

As long as you buy the Gamecube Broadband Adapter knowing what you're getting, it's worth the price of admission. Basically though, aside from Mario Kart Double Dash in LAN mode and Phantasy Star Online (which is only playable now on private servers), you can't do very much with it. There is a program called Warpipe that allows you to play some other games online, but since that requires a PC outside of your Gamecube, that's not something most people will ever use it for. As it is, it does what it's supposed to do, and when it comes to hardware, you can't ask for much more than that.
Great idea! September 26, 2007

The Gamecube Broadband Adaptor is simply an attachment for the GCN to hook up to a network/internet connection to allow multiplayer games to connect to the internet. It's extremely easy to connect to your GCN, easy to find the port to connect LAN cable, and then it's just a matter of playing your game and knowing how to connect abroad.
This adaptor is also able to be used in order to stream ISOs from your PC to be read from your GCN. It takes more than just the adaptor and a GCN, but this is what actually enables the network connectivity needed.
