MEMORY CARD MANIA!

Post by flojocabron »

we all own some. In your console, on your controler, lost in your closet, inside a game case.

How many do you have? Do you have them filled up? Do you have them sorted by color or do you prefer a specific one?

Do you have more official or unofficial memory cards?

Do you erase them or do you still have a file from 1997?

Have you found any that you thought were lost?

Do you look over your save spots and wonder if you'll ever finish your old game or start again over from scratch?

Do you have more memory cards that you will never fill?

Post your love, hate, or memories of these memory..... :? Cards :mrgreen:

I personally own about 15 or 16 dreamcast VMUs. Some have been filled and some havent. I try to have them match the color of my controlers.

I try to keep all of my burned games on one card and the official games on another.

I do have all of my fighters one one red vmu memory card.

I also have about 6 PS2 memory cards. Two official black ones one full and the other halfways. Two 16mb ones from Radioshack (they were clearance) and one still new in its box somewhere. Saving that one for another day. And I just recently got a madcatz one. Havent had a chance to test this one.

I believe I also own about 15 PS1 memory cards too. I never let go a chance to get one at the fleamarket for about a buck or two. I have more off brand ones than original sony ones.

edit

I have only two oxbox cards too. both madcatz.

I have three PSP sticks one 8, one 2, and a 1gb. The one gb is my first one from way back when. I use mostly the 8 now.

done edit

The ones that I really dont have much of are N64 memory cards. I have about 5 of them. I have some small official nintendo ones. but the rest are 3rd party. I do have some of those rumble/memory paks. But they are kinda bulky.

Do any of you guys have the memory cards for the NEO GEO? I've never really seen one before.

I have one 4x memory card for my gamecube, haven't been able to fill that up yet. I've also got 2 ps2 memory cards, one official and one third party, and two Performance PS1 cards. If they run out of room, I just dump them onto my PS3 and start again.

oh gamecube!

forgot about that one.

I have 5 of them too.

They would jump between the GC and the wii.

Originally had three, but I got two more 1019 ones recently.

Not all the way full.

I have:
A Sega CD Backup RAM Cartridge
Saturn Action Replay
3 Dreamcast VMUs, all official, my favorite is the blue one.
3 Playstation 1 memory cards (one is filled)
2 Playstation 2 memory cards (neither is filled)
1 Xbox Memory Unit (which I frustratingly learned after buying apparently can't backup every game)
2 Game Cube Memory Cards (one big one, one smaller one which came with Animal Crossing)

I also have a USB-drive I use for Xbox 360 backups.

I tend to hang on to my saves forever. I mean, what if someone came over to my house and didn't believe that I beat Popful Mail? I'd have to PROVE IT with my save! (Note: I'm aware this will never, ever happen.)
If I leave a game unfinished for a long period of time, I usually re-start from the beginning and delete my old save. But I try to avoid those situations!

PS1 - 3~4x - Official Sony
N64 - 1x - I bought one at launch thinking it was gonna be like the PS1... Never used it.
SS - 8MB AR for imports and system memory back up (those cr2032s die too fast), and I picked up a few other memory carts for a buck each.
PS2 - 1x - I never needed more than 1. I've just erased saves that I don't care about but I still have a lot of saves on there.
GC - 2x 59, 3x 251 - got 2x of the 251s and 1x 59 free inside used games :D
DC - 5x VMUs (got 3x from PlayAsia for $10 IIRC, Euro clearance, 4 controllers as well at that price)
PSP 1x 16GB MSDuo

I hear ya on the Xbox (me too on N64).
And on unfinished games, yeah, I've tried to resume the game but it never works for me on RPGs. Start over~

I don't have many cards because I don't have many games. haha

Since I've gotten rid of a shitload of N64 games, I'm down to 3 cards, two official and one third party (which I never use anymore and actually forgot I had until recently). I don't even know what's on them to be honest, I don't have many games left that utilize them.

1 official PS1 memory card, which is full, and 2 3rd party ones. One is brand new, the other is going to be used for whatever I need it for next.

2 PS2 memory cards, one black and one clear-ish red (both official). No idea what's on the red one (stole it from my girlfriend). The black one has about a million saves for Shadow of the Colossus, as well as Ico, and God of War 1 & 2 (those are the only games I've ever even really played on the PS2).

For the Gamecube, I have a grey 59, black 251, and white 1019 card(s) - all official. None of which I even really need because I don't play my Gamecube at all. The 59 and 251 are probably blank because I'm pretty sure I moved everything to 1019. Not much on it, just Paper Mario, Twilight Princess, Ocarina of Time: Master Quest, Wind Waker, Four Swords Adventure...

Ummm, I think that's it. :D For the most part, I try to only have what I need.
