What is it? A gamecube with an installed wiikey fusion with the sd slot built in the dvd laser track from a gutted dvd drive. Wiikey switch is on the back. The wiikey fusion pcb is soldered to wires so there's no need for a bulky ribbon to dip adapter. I don't recommend people try soldering in the wiikey fusion the way I did it's extremely difficult and a great way to permanently break your wiikey fusion. I built a sd gecko out of a 4$ third party memory card and a spare microsd adapter since that's the only way to restore the wiikey firmware if it dies. This machine is currently running an auto-booting version of swiss that's flashed to the wiikey fusion. In the gameboy player I use either an ez-flash 4 for gba romhacks or my gb / gbc devcart for gb / gbc romhacks.
