Can I use the media launcher to run games off an sd card? Don't care if they have to be ripped by me personally, to do it - I just don't want to bring my collection to college, but as I have a Wii the GC is slightly more expendable, and launching off an SD would be so much easier than trying to track down mini DVD-Rs
---quoted from me---
I just run SDBoot (sd-boot-0.4b7-A.dol) from my SD Card, then the menu screen shows up and recognizes my card in Slot A. The menu screen shows a folder i made called "GCGAMES" and lists the .gcm game file I put in there. I was using a 500MB Sandisk SD card, so i used GCMUtility 0.5 to shrink some .gcm games down to a size that fits on my card (small games like Wario World, Alien Hominid, and Ikaruga). If you want to play mostly any other games, you'll have to get a 2Gig or higher card to store one or two games max (a shrunk game is usually around 1Gig. :/ Also, GCMUtility may not work on personal rips-it's kinda picky. But all the scene rips I got from http://gctracker.mine.nu:800/ worked fine. Then I just select the game and choose "boot."
