Chris F Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 I've always had issues with third party memory cards and accessories. So I would always go with the Nintendo branded memory cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamsappel Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 Does anyone know when the SD memory card adapters will be released? Will you have to use a 64 Mb card (I have an extra 16 Mb card)? How much memory is in the 251 block card anyway (that's the biggest Nintendo brand card currently available, Bryan)?

Chris F Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 Bryan, the Black Memory Card 251 is the card I'm using at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark E Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 Bryan, the Black Memory Card 251 is the card I'm using at the moment. Same here. After all the horror stories I've heard about 3rd party cards, I'm sticking with brand name on this one. I have a spare small card and I haven't had to use it yet. The 251 has a load of room, but those seasons are gonna take up an arse load of space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamsappel Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 It has over 4X the memory, and is only $5 more. Definitely get it. I've yet to fill it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcalx Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 How much memory is in the 251 block card anyway...? A quick search leads me to believe that the 251-block memory card holds 16MB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starhawk Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 Just to emphasize what you guys have already said... I've always heard to stay away from 3rd party memory. Sure, with one of those cards you can hold 10x the amount of a regular card, but you are almost assured that you will lose that data somewhere along the way. I've never lost any data on any memory cards. But then again, I only but 1st party cards. Use the unauthorized cards at your own risk!

Mark E Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 I've always heard to stay away from 3rd party memory. I'll back this up. I've personally known two people who lost fifty-hour plus Final Fantasy games on the PSOne due to third-party cards. Look at your games and tell me when you'd ever want to risk losing that much data . I would've screamed personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reeldeal Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 I bought the 251block 3rd party memory card (interact i believe)last year when madden came out. The thing didn't work at all. I'm kinda glad i didn't start using it only to have it crap out on me because then i would have been mad. Luckily because it never worked i was able to return it and get the nintendo brand, it's worked great for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
