"Networking Gamecubes"

There really is something about a lan party environment that makes me excited about this. I have hosted 4 in the last year, but they are usually extremely difficult to set up. I have had to call hotels to book conference rooms, call pc renters, get food set up, it is insane. I mean having 64 guys in a room is fun as hell, but having 16 guys at this level of work is something I will gladly take.

You could you possibly use a wireless ether connections, though it would cost a heep of money.... Like from your real broadband modem, you would have a wireless router attached. Then you would have a wireless connection from your wireless router to a wireless usb network adapter and then convert it to an ethernet cable and plug it in your gamecube. Lastly, do the same for the other gamecubes! Volaa! Wireless Gamcube Networking!
here's a link showing Computer wireless networking.....look for the small wireless usb network adapter
Wireless usb network adapter
But I don't know exactly how the Nintendo's Broadband adapter works so....maybe my idea could work or maybe not.

Er... What's the point of having a LAN if you're going to play on 3' LCDs?? That doesn't seem like any fun, considering a 27' could house a 4 player splitscreen, with bigger individual windows. Seems like a bad idea.
Mingesium:
think bigger. 30 players in F-Zero. 8 karts in Mario Kart. The fact that other players can't see your screen. There are many pluses for LAN.
Stimutacs Addict:
could the GCN handle 30 racers in F-zero? That sounds ludicrous
