 Very handy October 22, 2007
This is the only reliable 1000-plus block memory card for the Gamecube. I have owned several others, and after using them for roughly a year with about 600 blocks of memory used, it would randomly lose a few blocks. I have had this memory card for over three years at times with over 900 blocks of memory stored on it, and none of my data has ever been corrupted or lost. Another plus is that it's actually smaller than the standard 251 block memory card.
If you have over 5 games, it is much more cost efficient and convenient to buy this 1019 block memory card. Especially if you have a Madden football game, of any year, you will save yourself a lot of trouble by getting this memory card.
AWESOME MEMORY CARD May 6, 2007

I can't find ways to fill up this memory card, and that is wonderful. It is the ultimate Gamecube memory card and can hold all my sports games on there while I keep the low memory games on my other cards.
 Adequate space for all GC games April 28, 2007

Since it's durable, well-sized, and able to hold the largest amounts of GameCube blocks possible, I really can't find much to complain about in this memory card. It lasts long and can be used for multiple games because of all the data it holds. Also comes with a small plastic case and a paper label to jot down a few notes.
Since GameCube (and Wii) games don't use hard drives like most of the newest gaming generation, there are almost no loading times to worry about when playing: another high point, though not as technologically advanced.
Great space! March 29, 2007

This memory card has enough space to hold your save files as well as many other people's for multiplayer gameplay. This is especially helpful when many people share one console in a dorm.
 Works for Wii, But totally RIPOFF or RAPED by Nintendo! March 24, 2007

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!!
