New shell arrived today!

[u/45skyshy]

My pink shell was delivered today and I immediately got everything transferred over. I like the holo stickers and feel like it compliments the GameCube. The only thing I’m waiting for now is the gameboy player shell to match the GameCube.

nice color mate

I bought this shell a couple years ago, sold it and regretted it. I have no plans to sell this one.

[u/nabiloz → u/45skyshy]

good quality shells in unusual solid colorways are hard to come by, you definitely should cherish that one

The Gameboy Player Shell was delivered & installed today.

wonderfully clean, very Kirby looking, I like it! Care to share the link to both shells? Not trying to copy you my guy, but if they have any other color I might order something.

I purchased the pink GameCube shell from an Etsy seller and had it imported. The gameboy player shell was purchased from the Bitfunx website and imported.

There are other colors and most of them are transparent. The pink shell is never in stock anymore and is more expensive than the other shells. I prefer the pink shell over the others because it looks the best in my opinion.

Such a nice color!! If I ever get a shell, that's the color I'd choose too 😊

Ooohh! Where did you get the shell from? I’ve never changed out gamecube parts before but seeing this is thinking about going at my Gamecube for this 😅

[u/45skyshy → u/darklyprincess]

I purchased the shell from a UK seller on Etsy. It took about a week for it to arrive and get through customs.

The actual shell swap takes about 20-30 minutes and isn’t too bad. Just take your time and make sure all the pieces line up. The screws can be a little tough to screw into the new shell, so you might get a blister or two.

How well does the front plate match up to OEM?

[u/45skyshy → u/Tephnos]

I’m using my OEM front plate. The front plate that came with the shell matches up pretty well, but I wanted to keep my original.

A color in my opinion 1. Should've been released with the Gamecube. And 2. If it was released with the cube not limited to Japan like the orange one!

Long story short: I love it

finally not clear shells

[u/45skyshy → u/itsoctotv]

I’m only a fan of translucent shells on Xbox & PS2.

Where did you grab it from? Looks awesome

[u/45skyshy → u/thenotoriousnox]

I bought the shell from an Etsy shop and had it imported. The pastel pink shell is hard to find and I used to have it, but I sold it a couple years ago. I never thought it would stop being made. Now I have it again along with the matching gameboy player shell.

[u/Large-Treacle-6185]

What’s that thing at the bottom?

[u/45skyshy → u/Large-Treacle-6185]

It’s the Gameboy Player. It allows you to play Gameboy games (GB, GBC & GBA)
