  1. I just published my review of the #FlippyDrive! It's a wonderful Optical Drive Emulator that unlocks a host of amazing new features on your #GameCube! @crowdsupply

  2. Now that my is installed and operational I'm slowly using their backup tool to archive my game collection. There's 42 unique titles, ~40 minutes per archive operation so... see you 28 hours later! 😬

  3. What have they done to my boy? installation day! Blog post will follow, especially for the Ethernet adapter which isn't documented officially yet

  4. Does it look dumb? Yes

    Does it work? Yes

    Got a flippy drive and designing my own IO plate for the #GameCube for this sd card reader. This is my temporary fix until the plate is done

  5. shipping date delayed a few weeks... still hoping I can get both in time for birthday. Would be fun to do 8-player Double Dash! 👀

  6. Just got my Flippydrive for my Gamecube. Very easy to install. I'm still waiting until I get an SD extender to screw in the 4 Gamebit screws at the bottom of the cube, but outside of that the process of getting this thing installed was really easy and it seems to work well
    Still gotta get the SD card set up but when that's done this cube will be unstoppable

  10. @[email protected] thanks so much for the super helpful pointers, esp on the bit about using it while not having to be stuck with JP-region games.

    For GameCube, I did find
    #FlippyDrive which seems like a decent option which would allow me to still play JP CDs + ROMs off of an SD card without the need to solder or perform any mod that couldn't easily be reversed.

    Still looking into a similar type of deal for SNES - being able to play off of the original medium (CD/cartridge) and also digital copies of ROMs seems like the perfect balance cos I'd like to avoid hoarding more space than I already am with more games lol.

  11. Stavo guardando questa interessante modifica #FlippyDrive per il #gamecube :

    - non richiede saldature 😍
    - costa relativamente poco (~50€ compresa spedizione in Italia)
    - permette di mantenere il drive ottico
    - in futuro potrebbe permettere di collegare dispositivi bluetooth alla console
