GameCube Memory Card 1019 Review (continued)
More User Submitted GameCube Memory Card 1019 Reviews

Works for Wii, But totally RIPOFF or RAPED by Nintendo!
To see how ripped off Nintendo is, let's do a simple conversion math.
The goal is to find a 1019 Blocks card has how many Mega Byte or Kilo Byte?
Let us do some calculation
8 Bit = 1 Byte
1 Mega Bit or Byte = 1024 Kilo Bit or Byte
Memory Card 1019 Blocks = 64 Mbit = 65536Kbit = 8192 KByte = 8 MByte
8192 KByte / 1019 blocks = 8.0393 KByte/block
How much is nintendo charging? $28.95
How large is Playstation 2 card?
8 Mega Byte = 64 Mbit = 59 blocks *64/4 = 944 Blocks
How much are we paying for 512 MByte SD, Compact Flash, or Memory Stick?
Around $8.00 or even Free.
And who wants 512MB cards these days?
Not a lot of people, almost no one. Most people today are going for 1 to 2 GB or 4GB for flash memory for PSP, MP3, Videos, and Pictures.
Lets use the $8.00 = 512MB = 60416 Blocks as of today's standard. That means 1019 blocks should cost:
1019/60416 * $8.00 = $0.135
Wow so Nintendo is actually over priced by 641.12% by charging at $1.00.
So in conclusion:
Nintendo is 18,272% over charged consumers for only 8 MB memory card, which no body even use today for any mp3 players nor USB massive storage device with even many times faster speed than this Gamecube card!!!!!
The saddiest part is for those people who has Wii and want to play Gamecube games, they are forced me use the Gamecube memory cards. You cannot save Gamecube data on Wii Internal memory nor SD cards!!!!
Nintendo is creating a hazzles to consumers!!

Great !
Finally, a memory card that's big enough for all my saves. My GC games collection is really not that big but between X-men Legends, Resident Evil 4 and MK: Deception, I was constantly having space problems for my saves. This card fixed them all !
Highly recommended if you have any of the games I mentioned in the last paragraph. And even if you don't, you won't need any other memory card.
Regards !

Great product
There's not much to say about this other than it's the only memory card you'll need for all your Gamecube saving needs. It's huge on memory and it's physically no bigger than the regular sized 59 block memory cards. It's also a nintendo made product so you know it's a quality buy. If you need more memory for your Gamecube or to play GC games on your Wii this is the card to buy.
