Where to buy a gamebit to open a gamecube?

Been searching on google, but I don't know if any of those online stores are reliable. I saw some on eBay but their description is not really well done and I don't know if they include the gamebits or not. Help me out, thanks!

Buy both sizes, you'll eventually want them both anyway. The bits from here are good quality. I've had mine for years and I use them all the time.

I've bought them from playasia before.

Does that include the tool I have to put the bit on? Or do I have to buy that seperately?

I'm pretty sure they sell one with the bit holder as well, but any standard hex magnetic driver handle will work. I'm sure you could find one of those at a dollar store if you don't have one.

You could always take the ghetto approach and try to use a bic pen Just get one of those clear bic pens made of hard plastic (not the white hollow ones) melt it with a lighter and shove it on the game bit/screw. Leave it there for like 10 seconds, and it'll harden making the end of the pen act as a perfect screw driver.

So far, I got this to work with a snes cart and a gamecube case.

This works. I have done it a few times without much problem. After you get the screws out the first time simply replace them with a standard screw of the same size.

Theres always a risk with this that you will damage the cart, leave broken plastic around the game bit, I have used this method myself, but if you can afford it, gamebits are the way to go, fast and easy.

Agree, Game bits are an inexpensive investment with less risk. Cost about same as swapping those screws out to regular phillips.
