Hi, unfortunately I don't have either a Wii or a GameCube any more but I have some old GC savegames on the GC card.

I do have a WiiU (and a Windows laptop!). Is there any card reader for GameCube cards? I see lots of references to GCMM but that requires a Wii which I don't have. I also see lots of SD card adapters which is the wrong way round? Just wondering if I need to get a Wii and hack it on order to read the card?

I've never come across a GC card reader before, so you might have to get a Wii/GC that can use Swiss+GCMM or find someone else that can convert the files for you.

I believe there is a way of soldering the connections of a GC memcard to an SD card to access it via a pc, but getting access to a Wii or GC with the necessary warez is probably safest and simplest.

Cheers, that's what I thought. No problem, I can pick up an old Wii off Ebay and hack that and then use GCMM. All good. :)

    truth be told, i agree with psi, i dislike both candidates, but i'd probably vote trump simply because the economy was better during his presidency

    Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.
