Nobody bit. :'(

For the surface mount caps, you can grab them firmly with a pair of pliers (You will squish it), and while pushing down, give it a twist. This breaks off the leads and allows you to remove the bulk of the cap before removing the legs with a soldering iron and cleaning the pads with wick. You...

The gamecube scene has been having a rough go at it lately from what I can tell, but I'll push out a few reachers for you.

I'm not convinced image hosting at MR is a thing (it hasn't been in the past) I'm also not willing to find a definitive answer to that right now.
