Re: I wanna purchase a GCp
Theres a lot more to a GCp than just a GC and screen. You need a controller, casing, misc materials, and a battery and charger (if you want).
If you build a GCp yourself (and already have all the tools), expect to pay at least $150 for parts. If you want someone else to build it, expect to pay at least $250, probably $400 if you want a good looking one with batteries.

Re: I wanna purchase a GCp
Your 'work' total will be $200 at least by itself. And no $20 battery is going to run a Gamecube.TechScreen19 wrote:So anyone interested? I think $ tops it.
* $23 GameCube
* $57 PS1 Screen
* $50 Work
* $30 Casing
* $20 Tools
* $20 Batteries
So that makes $200. (23+57+50+30+20+20=200)
A "deal" would be $400, but expect more in the range of $500-$600, especially if you do want a good-looking one.

Re: I wanna purchase a GCp
Change work to like $270 and you'll have the price for an ok gcp. And you'll be getting a really good deal.
Of course, I'm sure it would take more then $270 of work to get a gc and ps1 screen to run off a $20 battery.
Wow, no wonder new members are afraid. We're killing this guy.
