AreMe Micro SD Card Adapter TF Card Reader for Gamecube Serial Port 2 (SD2SP2 Pro)

Bought this to install pico boot and did exactly what it was suppose to thank u. Not as cheap as Ali express but it came alot quicker. Works for my gamecube but won't work for all. I also wish they didn't come in 2 pieces and was all one piece so in my opinion the quality isn't the greatest bc it could just snap off with too much pressure.

This is made of two PCBs instead of one, so it costs slightly more than the other design, but it was worth getting. With the other design, the microSD gets covered by the GameBoy Player, so you'd have to take that off every time you want to get the SD in or out. And I have a GameBoy Player. This version of the adapter allows you to reach the SD card from that little opening on the left side of the console, and it's still concealed. Adds a neat feature, very simple installation, without actually altering your console. I recommend it for anyone wanting to run "Swiss" on the GameCube.

I installed the picoboot mod on my GC with a regular SD2SP2 adapter that needed a little extra solder on the leads to fit securely. This new adapter was simple to assemble, replaced the old adapter, swapped the microsd card over, and booted up to Swiss on the first try. No issues when re-attaching the Game Boy Player, and the microSD card can now be accessed without having to take anything apart. Requires 1 more port cover to be kept safe somewhere so it isn't lost, but the easier access to the microSD card and the more secure fit without the need for solder is worth it to me.

I usually order these directly from the manufacturer in China, but when I'm in a pinch these work perfect. Fast shipping, great price, and they fit without issue.

This version works better for me as I keep a gameboy player attached to my console. I can easily access the micro sd card from the side of the console without taking the gameboy player off. haven't had any issues yet! I docked 1 star from durability, as it is *slightly* mis-shapen compared to my console, so the fit is a little weird. it did worry me that the pins may bend. but again, I haven't had any issues with it.

This thing is super convenient, small, out of site and it just works. Swiss didn't recognize my games when I had the card formatted to NFST and exFAT. I had to go back and format it to FAT32 just for the games to be recognized. That's no fault of this device though. And for $7 this was a steal. I would recommend and I would purchase again.... But hopefully I won't need to. 😁

This works fine, mine is a bit loose when plugged in, but I have seen reviews saying add a small dab of solder to thicken the connections (I will try this soon), also mine does not sit flush when the serial port 1 cover is installed but I saw reviews saying you can sand down the edge a bit to help that (which I will also try). But small faults or not it does read, it does boot, and it's way more convenient than the standard sp2sd adapter when using a gameboy player

I prefer this over the original style because I can access my sd card without removing my Gameboy player from my gamecube.
