Gaming Media: DVD
The cases are more durable then jewel cases. Thin yet large enough to hold a decent manual and or liner notes.

Temporary Storage
USB and SD Cards. USB for transfer files between computers too far away for Bluetooth and SD Cards for the Gamecube.

Favorite for Speed
Hard Drive for PS2 HDAdvance/HDLoader games.

I don't really have anything I really hate, as far as the actual mediums go, but Saturn cases from America suck balls.

I think my favorite medium might be Super Nintendo cartridges. I just love the noise they make when you put them in and the eject button is tons of fun :lol:
NES, SNES, PS1, N64, DC, PS2, GCN, Wii, PS3, 360, GB, GBC, GBA, GBA SP, PSP 3000, and 3DS XL

I always loved that eject button. Why didn't anyone else use that idea?

No particular favorite, but I absolutely hate DS cartridges. I am always afraid that I am going to swallow them somehow.

A common concern.

Actually, Nintendo gave up on it for the SNES2 didn't they?
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.
