Thats where emulators would come into play the role of "Emulating" the game.. but there are no Gamecube emulators out.. Plus, dont expect one for several Months, maybe years... As for playing them as in a Reguar CD... I wouldnt think so...

But what about opening up the cube, removing the cd drive, and installing it in a regular PC. Has anyone tried that?

I would think that nintendo has modified the drive so that it won't work in a regular pc without some serious modding and hacking. They seem to have worked so hard to prevent illegal copying, it would seem silly to leave something simple like that open.

High speed emulation of the PowerPC CPU is quite difficult. I'll leave it at that.

PowerPC Chips Havent even been emulated for Mac Emu's... SO if someone gets a PowerPC Based Emulator working... it would be a Emu First...

There is a very early PPC emulation in the works...but I'm not sure if the author intends on finishing it. It works far enough to begin to trace some Sega Model 3 games.

Hey, I dont know whether youve seen it or not. But, Ive watched Extendsed Play on TechTV. They showed a new type of gamecube that will play gamecube games and DVD's! the drive is made big enough for DVD's. Maybe if somebody took the drive out of that, it will probably work in a PC better than the original drive (considering the DVD/GC console isnt made by Nintendo). You oughtta try that.

I heard something about Nintendo licensing their tech to dvd player companies or something like that... or was it sega with the dreamcast? Oh well, I did hear about something like this somewhere. I don't sound vague at all do i? :)

Gamecube emulators on the internet are fake or virii. I'm not sure if blaze knows much or anything about the Gamecube.
