Yea, what Aurelio said. I made the assumption that it was ABS, my apologies.

Thanks guys 
Update !
I've been working on the console this weekend and received my new cubes and in those two was a Rev C :
Which will be perfect for what i want to do
then i started working on the batteries : (sorry for the blurry photos)
I also glued with epoxy the P2 port and unfortunately the power plug had a hole in it that i didn't see and epoxy went in it... It made the port not usable.
I finished wiring the controls and finally chose to, despite the look of the console beeing a bit clunkier, use 2 different buttons for mid press and full press. I simply didn't have enough space to have a soft and a hard button..
I still have to find another pot knob because this one is huge haha. And here is how i mounted the shoulder buttons :
I also received my wasp/wiikey clone and the megadrive adapter and i thin i chose the wrong one... I may be trying to wire it the wrong way but for me the easier way was to use thin wires ... I should have chosen another one but everything is wired correctly :

Exactly. Just wire the pin29 to GND and it will work.Protobug said:also to use the wiikey fusion i don't need to use the switch with pin29 ? since it's preflashed with swiss.
do i just need to format an SD car, put an iso on it and that's it ?
thanks
Yes, with swiss you just need to format your SD Card in FAT32

so this project is now almost done and i still can't figure out what the sd gecko does
The SD Gecko is used primarily to play Homebrew applications and Emulators.

If you're familiar with the homebrew channel on the Wii think of the SD gecko like the wii's SD card slot, the WKF/wasp have a read only SD card, but the SD gecko is read and write so you can play emulators on it and save to it etc while the WKF/wasp slot CAN play emulators it cannot save to the card (I believe there are builds that let you boot from WKF and save to an SD gecko) hope that clears it upProtobug said:thanks again !
