Finally! The perfect card for your large Gamecube saves
It's about time Nintendo came out with a sizable memory unit that can hold large amount of information. Before now, one had to rely off-brand cards (such as the Nyko 8 MB) for large saves, and they were susceptible to data corruption and the loss of saves. A basic save of Madden, MVP Baseball, or any of the Sims games often took up most of a regular 251 block card. Saving more than that--a season or franchise--was only possible with off-brand cards whose record of reliability was tenuous at best. (Imagine saving a season of Madden and losing it when the card became corrupted). Nintendo-brand cards have an excellent record of stability and reliability. If you need a large card for saving sports or Sims games, this is perfect.

Beyond Memory
It always seems to be what Nintendo finally did, other smaller companies did for Nintendo's Gamecube awhile ago. With Nintendo's Memory card 1019, it carries much more memory than it previous 251 memory block card. This device seems to be more crucial than imaginative, especially for die hard gamers of the Nintendo Gamecube. The memory works very well, and the trust that Nintendo carries on this card is great. Although with all different kinds of memory cards available for the Gamecube at all different prices, many will stick with cheaper memory cards that aren't always safe for Gamecube owners. Try to stick with Nintendo and this memory card, or the cheaper 251 block memory card. You really won't be sorry.

Best Damn Thing I Bought
I heard about a complaint on this card two weeks ago when it came out. It was about the card not accepting older games which definately isn't true why??? I have 70+ games now and every one of them went on except for F-Zero GX which was kinda strange since it's a game from Nintendo themselves. With 70 games and lots of them being older lower class titles all moving over fine theres nothing to worry about. Another thing I have 676 memory blocks left meaning I can buy some more games. Buy this if you own a Gamecube. Also look into buying the GBA Gamecube link cable wich is freakin awsome.
