Since the system was dropped and is obviously in need of professional repair, I would suggest sending it to a Gamecube repair shop. These consoles can be repaired at a reasonable price (as compared to later model game systems) at many reputable shops. A good shop that does this type repair is the NES Repair Shop.

You've only two options. Either have it fixed, or sell it on ebay. Yes, people buy broken Gamecubes for parts, but you won't get much. I would suggest having it fixed. It will provide years of service for a cheap price.

I know exactly what you need...

since it's obvious your son has broken it... i suggest for his birthday upgrading to the Nintendo Wii...
simply ask him how he feels about this to gather a group feeling about the situation.. check with the spouse, if any, in regards to this matter also!

:o) in the end.... happy happy

Why does my Nintendo GameCube keep on showing up an error has occurred on the TV screen in the middle of a game then?
I am guessing that maybe there is something internally wrong with your gamecube console the hardware inside of your gamecube console is having issues then or the fan might not be working anymore so it keeps on showing up an error has occurred and it needs a new fan. If the disc look fine and work on a Wii console then there is something wrong internally with your gamecube console and it needs to be repaired. It would be cheaper to buy another one from Lukie Games or DKOldies or East Starland Games or JJ games or you can buy a Wii and play on a Wii console.

Turns on but wont spin disk
Well we think that the motor inside of the console that spins the disc's is shot now so you should buy a wii because wii's are better than gamecubes are and you can still play gamecube games on a wii too. Because i play gc games on a wii then.

There are not many stores that sell GameCube games anymore because they do not cost much.

You can find them online at reputable stores such as Amazon:

My gamecube does not spin the discs that i put into it and does not read them. Is there something i can do to fix this without having to buy a new one?
One time I ccidently touched the lens in my 10 year old gamecube so now the lens and the laser dont read the discs anymore because it is knocked out of anglement so you could buy a new gamecube now or buy a wii because wii's can still play gamecube disc's too.

My disc wont play on my gamecube, its not my gamecube because it plays other games but the disc plays on my wii.
I have the same problem. The Wii has a better lazer eye on it that can read through more scratches and gunk and smudges and stuff than a gamecube. The gamecubes lazer is alot weaker and more touchy and more likely not to play a scratched disc than a Wii would..

Will the Nintendo Wii control work with the Game Cube games? I can't find a button to play the game. I am trying to play Ratatouille on the Game Cube with a Wii control.
Well that depends if your trying to play gamecube games on the gamecube or the wii?, i assume your doing it on the wii because anyone would know that a wii control wouldn't work on a gamecube, not impossible, just very hard

wii remotes do work with the nintendo wii on wii games and on gamecube games, but it is better if you use a gamecube controller and plug it into the to holes under the flap, pictured below, hopefully.
