Indeed. However, I think the two Interact ones I've had for years should keep me satisfied. They've never failed me yet.

How many MB's is that? 8?

Yeah, it's an 8MB (64Mb) card.

Why didn't Nintendo just do that from the start, then?

Don't say that. They have and DO die. They will die on you. It happened to me, it happened to many others I know. It erks me when people say they have confidence in those pieces of crap..

My 251 is just fine, if they offer to exchange it for the 1019 for absolute free though I'll go ahead and do it.

My card is doing fine for me now. I haven't filled it up and it hasn't crashed on me. Of course, I've only had it for about 9 months.

Actually it was a manufacturing error. If your cards don't screw up on you within a month or so, they generally never will. Seriously. Interact acknowledged that there was a problem, but also stated that about half of the cards they made around the time of the problem don't have any issues. I seem to be one of the lucky.

That's not to say I don't back up my most precious of saves on an official card. But I've never had any problems and I don't expect to.

Nah, mine died on me after a year. Right before Christmas, too. That's not a happy feeling. I couldn't save Mario Kart for 5 days until I got another card.

Alright that just isnt true. Ive had my Interact Mega memory card for almost 2 years and ive never had any problems whatsoever. As ive stated countless times around here, best 30 bucks ive ever spent. Now im not saying some of you havent had problems, im just saying that I never have, and therefore have no reason to believe that there is anything wrong with Interact's cards. So dont say that they ALWAYS die because obviously this just isnt the case.

Give me a ring in ten years. If your memory card still works, then go on praising third party memory cards. You will be until one dies on you.

Ive never trused thrid party memory cards or controlers since my buddie had a thrid party controler blow the first port on his N64 and no one would help nintendo told him "too bad" and the thrid party devoper told him the same thing. At least when its the consule makers stuff thell do something about it....maby

I am not going to buy another GC Memory card ever. Thank that to the USB one I bought from lik-sang.com
. I'll just make back ups to open space up if I ever need to.

Exactly. I've owned two since the week they came out and mine are still functioning perfdectly.

But still, Dyne, I'll try your email in 10 years and tell you how they're working.

Jason1 · 03-24-2004, 11:07 PM

After 10 years, who cares if they are working or not. By then we'll see the successor to the successor of the Gamecube running around, and I doubt my Cube will be getting any playing time, that is If I even have it anymore. All I know is mine is working fine now and if it's still working fine when I quit using it I just cant diss on the mem card. Simple as that.
