So I got a floppy flippy drive for my GameCube and I wanna have the SD card accessible.
But instead of hacking off the original I thought it would be fun to design my own.
So far I got it to fit well enough. However some dimensions needs adjustments before I start final prints.

If you don’t mind me asking, what exactly is the use of a floppy drive on a game cube?
3d printing an IO shield is a great idea! Retro console modding is a great use of a 3d printer.

I think autocorrect got OP. There’s a device called a “FlippyDrive” that allows you to run games off an SD card. www.crowdsupply.com/team-offbroadway/flippydrive

Yes Flippy Drive (fixed the og post). Ahh gotta love Apple’s auto correct

That makes a lot more sense! I’m sad now though I thought this was some cool homebrew-ery going on since the GameCube is just a power pc computer (I’ve seen people run Linux on the hardware before).
