How would I go about making an SD to GCN adapter?

I'm pretty sure it's possible to make one, but I don't really know how.

You mean, to use SD cards on a Gamecube as a GCN memory card?

It is possible, but no Gamecube games support saving to SD card, therefore, pointless.

There is an AR bootloader.

He probably wants to use it on his GCN or Wii to play emulators and homebrew....and do do I. I would love to have one of these. I even have a spare GCN Memory card and a 1 GB SD Card

From what I understand, the gamecube memory card is a variation of an sd card.

The guy here seems to agree: http://ngc.scorpei.com/GUIDE-SD_adapter.html

I read it in a Gamecube hardware hacking guide or somthing.

That was before my super modded dual modchip neon lit mini gamecube died in a car accident...

I remember that Lik-Sang had SD-GCN memory adaptors, but that beacuse of their crazy formating, they would only work with certain games.

Er, to clarify, I mean an adapter similar to the official one... The official one is hard to find for a decent price.

the official one is called a gecko sd adapter i think..
a mod site that i use has just got them in stock for a decent price.

What would you need to do/get to boot homebrew off of this little device?

Correction, only supported by the limited edition Japanese Animal Crossing... It allowed you to take photos.

Action Replay only supports it with code to use it. From there you need SD load, a program that goes on the SD card, accessed by Action Replay which then loads all .dol files on the SD card.
