hey guys ive just bought a white gamecube for £30 and i have a wasp fusion and have ordered a megadrive v3 so when everything arrives im gonna mod the white gamecube and stick the wasp in it, im also planning to install an internal sd and after searching around i pieced together a picture to help me could someone look over it and see if its correct and also tell me how to alter it so i can use the slot b memory card aswell as the internal sd connected to it (not at the same time) perhaps with a switch if needed thanks.
im gonna use a proper sd gecko not a homemade one.

Unless making a portable, I'd say messing with the memory slots is more trouble than it's worth.
Suppose you could program a switching circuit. Toggle switches will look silly.

Looks identical to Ashen image, besides the exclusion of the INT line which he said it may not be needed. And the fact that you labeled a picture of a mirrored image of the underside of the motherboard.

yes its based off other images but i flipped it and added details on that would better help me set up the internal sd gecko to the memory card slot b from the back so i still have a working memory cards slot i just wanted to make sure it looked right

So the mirrored flip is intentional? May I ask why? Are you using a cheap USB microscope type thing or are you planning to install this by looking through a mirror?

im not sure if its correct because the gamecube ive ordered to mod hasnt come yet but basically im soldering the wires to the memory card slot b solder points so i flipped the image in a way that it will closer resemble what i will see when i look at it but it may be wrong but rotating or flipping the image is easy i just wanted to know if the pinout from the solder points to the sd gecko is correct
