any idea how long i should wait before trying it again?

as long as you possibly can. there's no real true tested time frame to go by but the longer, the better.

take that hair dryer off of it as well. it's best to let it air dry.

my girlfriend spilled her drink all over my ps2 once and i let it sit out on for about three weeks. it fired right up and onto eBay it went.

That is THE worst typing/spelling/grammar I have EVER seen.

blow a normal fan on it for a while. Ok...funny story time. My bro put his cell phone through the wash while it was still on. Naturally, when he took it out it didn't work anymore. My dad had the crazy idea to put the phone in the toaster to dry it out. I tried telling him that would fry(pun intended) the phone, but he didn't believe me. He toasted it at 200 degrees for 30ish minutes and when he took it out and turned it on...it worked!!! It has worked ever since. So, if you don't care about it, you could throw the gamecube in the oven for a while. It might fix it, or it might not...

Just to let you know, ANYTIME you get water on electronics do NOT turn it on to test it. Immediatley unplug it, remove whatever you can and let it air dry. You turn it on, you energize it, it blows. Let it dry, then turn it on. Even thats not fool proof but there is a better chance of salvation doing it that way

agreed, do NOT turn it on right away

my suggestion, although uncommon, would be to:

disassemble it,

rinse the parts with DISTILED Water or Isopropyl Alcohol

then let it air dry in a dust free area (maybe let a fan blow on the parts)
