Photo of two small packages on a counter. One is a FlippyDrive, which is a solderless GameCube mod chip. The other is a SummerCart64, which is a cartridge that can be loaded with N64 ROMs and played on an original Nintendo 64.

    @Texan_Reverend Thank you for reminding me to finish setting up my Flippy Drive. I never did decide which color of GameCube to put mine in.

    @Texan_Reverend I'm familiar with the bottom. What's the top do?

    @AdmiralMemo The FlippyDrive is a solderless mod chip for the GameCube. It's an optical drive emulator and shares a connection port with the actual optical drive by using a clever ribbon cable.Effectively, it allows you to run ROMs on a GameCube from a MicroSD card just as though they were being read from a disc.

    @Texan_Reverend Holy crap, That's almost the length of Sweden thrice over. Summercart64 looks sweet, though
