Title: Curiosity question regarding Nintendo made memory cards
Post by: GoldenPhoenix on August 14, 2005, 09:17:23 AM
I was wondering how many mega bytes the 1019 is, I've never seen anything regarding the mb size of their cards.

Does it really matter since you're saving in blocks?

"It's 16MB of uncompressed flash memory, four times bigger than the Memory Card 251 and thirty-two times bigger than the Memory Card 59. (Wondering where the weird numbers come from? The file format data is five blocks, and that size is constant regardless of the card's total size. So add five to each of the capacities, and you'll get powers of two, which are very common when dealing with memory."  

sorry for forgeting the quote.

I think that was Stevey's most well-written post on the forums. Not only did it have good spelling. But I learned something about the file system on the card.

The spelling is good, same with the grammar, he used punctuation, and the entire post made sense(it was not an incomprehensible jumble of words), its raining cats & dogs, Satin reports a snowstorm in his home land, and while duck hunting I accidentally shot the 3 pigs out of the sky.

What a wierd day its gonna be...
