Gus, my dog pissed on my cube, and now it wont turn on, and when it does nothing is shown, what can I do? (Anyone mention house training I will castrate you, he got nervous that dumb ****!) Please help!
take it apart, clean up the piss, dry it off naturally for a week and try again. don't try using it with dog piss and stuff on it, you'll end up shorting it.
^Do what lorquis said and use rubbing alcohol to clean/rinse it. the rubbing alcohol will evaporate really quickly and not leave behind any parts that'd short your machine out.
Oh my god this had me laughing my A** of for minutes... Sad thing, but hey it's just a nintendo try what the others have suggested.
OMG thats a classic! Ok, I need a serious note here to make this post not seem like spam...: Let it dry off in the airing cupboard for a week and buy some air freshener.
I had someone spill beer on an xbox controller once...I just took it to pieces and dried it off with a warm hairdryer, which worked fine . <A88>
Yeah..the silliest thing you can do is try turning it on straight away If you've already done that, and it's definetly dry now...and it still won't work...you probably b0rked it by turning it on whilst it was still wet...
If you can't find a proper bit to opening your Gamecube, use the melted pen trick. Take the ink and metal tip out of a plastic pen, light it on fire, then jam it down onto the torq head until it hardens and you'll have your self a $0.15 torq head for Nintendo consoles. If it breaks, just melt it again and repeat.
Blahaahha, funniest thread I've read in a while. Anyway, my advice would be to clean it out with some solvents (isopropyl alcohol is good) and then try it, although, the fact that you tried to turn it on while the piss was soaking in probabily didn't help. Maybe you should try some disciplinary techniques like throwing it down the stairs or something..
You sure it wasnt your piss, perhaps got a bit lazy, or you sleep walked and took a quick one on it? hmmm? Just dry it out, and if that doesnt work, buy another, they're not that expensive...
If it never works again you could make a video of you smacking the crap out of your cube with a flaming sledgehammer in a public place. Then get some webspace, smother it in adverts and post the video. Quick couple of $$$ and minor internet celebrity status.
I think it wasn't your dog actually.... I think you were just that desperate for a Wii and couldn't wait!
Oh come on, it was begging to be said... and someone had to say it... and I'm in the mood for lowering the tone!
do you know how to do anything else? As has been said, take it apart, clean and dry. If it still doesnt work then hard luck.
