Is it possible for a Gamecube to be so old that it causes input lag?
I was trying to play Melee today and noticed it on all my controllers. It's not huge but it's clearly there, which is kind of an issue because for some reason I don't have everything unlocked and I still have to do the Showdown.

Gamecubes still work? What is this witchery

All of my old shit does. This seems to be the only one I'm having any sort of problem with.
Well, except the clock on my Dreamcast, but I know how to fix that.

Input lag is determined by your tv.
Replace it.

this, its display latency. set your tv to game mode or just use your monitor or some shit

No, that would be like physically impossible. The game would start running slow before that.
Get a CRT if you want to play melee. No exceptions.

Not really. You can use a game mode lcd or led tv-
They don't lag anymore, unless you use an old one.

This. Any LED/LCD display worth its salt has low input lag.

I've been thinking of getting a CRT for my much older shit anyway so I'll probably do that.
I don't seem to have a "game mode" on this big Vizio HDTV anyway.
Blow on the cartridge

Nah son. All it does is eliminate the post processing effects.For one, crt's will always, scientifically have lower latency than an lcd. Two, it still takes time to upscale a 480p image to 720p.
Op, assumng your playing on an crt, then it could 3rd party controller or incredibly shitty 3rd party AV cables. Dont fault the gamecube, it aint do you no harm ;-;

They objectively do still lag, sometimes multiple frames worth. CRTs are the only way to guarantee having no detectable input lag for precision gaming.
>>332792053
Are you really saying you can notices a 3ms latency? cause my monitor has that and I can't notice shit.
>>332792446
it's not so much about noticing it, it's moreso that in a game as fastpaced as melee minimizing the delay between inputs and actions is crucial
>>332789101
there is literally no such thing as input lag
stop spreading this meme

it's the upscaling that causes most of the lag on older consoles. it has to convert the resolution before it displays it. if you're using hdmi you will probably notice a lot less or none at all.
if you are using a standard definition console then you're probably getting ~100ms lag, which will make a huge difference when playing a game like melee.

Wow, that sucked. Work on your bait.
