What Sets the robot_retro Power Board Apart
Powered by USB-C PD (Power Delivery)
- Compatible with 12V PD chargers. Most 30W and above USB-C adapters will work, including models from Anker, Dell and uGreen.
- Note, if you have a problem with the GameCube not powering up and only the fan turning on, this is due to the power supply not being 12V compatible.
Recommended: uGreen Nexode Mini 30W for optimal quality and value.
Aesthetic Touch
- Comes with a multi-coloured 3D-printed spacer. Additional colours available via downloadable STL files.
Installation Instructions
See tutorial and reviews from JoeBleeps and below:
- Unscrew the four screws on the bottom of your gamecube (use a 4.5mm gamebit driver). See photo.
- Remove the top lid and unscrew the single power board screw (phillips head). See photo.
- Install the provided 3D-printed spacer. Please note, this is a snug fit and will just snap into place.
- Fit the robot_retro board in the same position as the original and replace the power board screw.
- Reassemble your console.

Awesome power supply, much better than OEM, and very easy to install. Highly recommended.
Top! Easy to install, works great
This worked great and shipped fast. It fit perfectly and was easy to install. But you need a 12v USB-C cord to go with it.
This is an incredible modification for your Gamecube and a credit to Robot Retro. It simply, just works. Easy to install and works without any issues. My Gamecube uses a FlippyDrive, and I also added a Noctua silent fan; since I switched to USB-C power, I’ve seen no impact. Its ace knowing that you have a more efficient power source for your Cube and makes it much easier to transport around, whether that’s out and about, or simply bringing it to a larger living room for some local, multiplayer, Gamecube goodness! I use an UGreen Nexode Air 45w with the matching UGreen USB C power cable.
I re-shelled my Gamecube using a Bitfunx clear blue shell and when I bought this USB-C module, I selected the Ice Blue cover. As you can see in the pictures, it’s not a perfect match, but I’m fine with it; I’ll rarely see the back and when I do, it’s a close enough match that it doesn’t bother me, personally; perhaps if you have access to 3D printing, you could find a closer match.
I’m very happy with this module and will definitely look to upgrade my other retro consoles using modules by Robot Retro.
Fantastic quality from robot retro as always
