I'm building a GCP, and today my 6th gamecube motherboard died on me. I'm gonna get some more and was considering buying a lot of "as is" gamecubes on ebay. Some gamecubes are described as having trouble with reading discs, while others wont power on. I'm fairly certain that if a gamecube wont read discs, then it's only an issue with the disc drive, which wont matter since I'm using a wiikey fusion.
However, if a gamecube wont power on at all, would it be accurate to assume that only the regulator is at fault? (maybe due to a power surge/burned fuse). In that case, I could just replace the regulator or use a custom one.
Basically what's the most likely issue for a gamecube to not power on? I'd like to figure out my chances of it being repairable.
