DS-Lite GBA cartridge reader pin out guide to retropi zero

Hey guys,
Got kind of stuck building my game-boy zero.... Does anyone on here have a diagram of connecting a DS-Lite GBA cartridge reader to a retropi zero!? I'm unable to find any real specific wiring diagram or any videos on the matter??!! It would be so very appreciated!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

It depends on what SD card PCB you have for which pins will get wired to the pi zero. Kitch-bent? Prerunnerseth? Handmade? SD card breakout board (not a cartridge)? What?
Not quite what he's looking for. a3k4 doesn't diagram cartridge reader to pi zero, he diagrams SD card breakout to pi zero.

The pins you wire up depends on which pins you use. You need to follow the traces in the gameboy cart and match them up with the Raspberry Pi. Wermy's part 5 guide covers it.
