    Took this one from Stone Age Gamer and did a little Photoshop work to it. Yes, it's small but it's the correct size and looks fine when printed out..

    You can find A4 size stickers that you can print on, then cut manually with some paper cutter easily at some electronic stores.
    At least that was the case for me in Japan.
    Cutting was easy, I did it in 5 minutes :)

    Yeah, thanks a lot for uploading your design. I really like it and it will blend in perfectly with my jpn-only MD-collection.

    How did you change the SD slot? Did you take a picture of the board after the new slot was set up? Personally I would rather not fuck around with the PCB, so I'll probably leave it just like it is although your cart looks really nice now with the centered slot.

    I'm glad you like the design :)
    As for the SD slot, I didn't change anything on the PCB.
    What I did is to make a sort of SD slot extension.

    1. cut micro SD adapter in half.
    2. solder the pins to cables where usually a micro SD card would be.
    3. solder the other end of the cables to a new SD card slot (I bought for 140 yen / US$1.40).
    4. using a glue gun (hot glue), I glued the new SD card slot directly to the JP megadrive cart.

    All this method is not my idea, it is originally done by someone I found through random googling.
    So all the credits for centering the SD slot goes to this person.
    You can find detailed photos of this in the below link.

    Any idea where you can get the sd card slots cheap in the uk? Looked on ebay seller wants £5 for delivery! There is a psp one but it has 10 pins, and 9 seems to be the standard.

    Is there any reason to take the sd card out much if you loads all the roms on?

    I have no idea where you can get them in the UK.
    I always buy my electric parts in Tokyo Akihabara or at the below online store of Akizuki Denshi.
    Maybe they ship international, but I'm not sure...
    If you want me to read the website, please let me know.

    MasterOfPuppets where did you get that label?

    That logo was designed by me and I don't remember giving people permission to use it for their own labels.

    If someone sold this to you I would like to know who they are. If you made it yourself I ask you not to distribute it.

    Not trying to be a jerk, but I work hard on this stuff and I don't appreciate people taking it for their own profit or use without my permission.

    BTW, just to be clear I obviously can't stop you from making your own for private use. However, I do not want anyone selling these or giving them away, that is my main concern.

    I made it myself (not the logo of course). I was searching for "Super EverDrive" and a forum came up that had the logo as an attachment.

    I completely understand, I have no intentions of giving it out. And if anyone asks where to get one, I'll send them to your site.

    Yakumo's greatest wet dream is finally brought into reality when he finds he can finally remove a Mega Drive from inside another Mega Drive, and insert it into yet another Mega Drive.
