However, I'm now getting a message every time that the entire card is corrupt and needs to be formatted... Which is going to erase all data.
I don't expecially want to do this as I have a recently completed Resi 4 game on it with The Mercenaries mini game complete (ie. 5 stars on every level with every character, which took damn ages...), as well as much other stuff like my Smash Bros savegame, Viewtiful Joe saves on the last level, a Rogue Leader game with gold medals on every level, Mario Sunshine, Zelda, Paper Mario... You get the picture...
Just wondering if anyone has any ideas on how I might get the data without formatting or if I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and delete everything.
Either way I'm gonna be buying a new big memory card from SR... The trouble seems to have started as the card got more full... Bah. Damn memory cards. Bring back good ol' cartridges...
I have an 8MB GAME one for backups of major game saves.
Trust me, I remember my memory cards not copying my old smash bros melee data... I moved all of the data on my 59 memory card onto a 1016 one. But Smash Bros wouldn't move, and I'd only realised it when it was too late.
The AR option is viable, but I don't wish to fork out the extra money really... I need to get a new Memory Card anyway as the two I have are essentially full (well, this one was, now it's apparently corrupted...) so I guess I'll just format the card, get a new card (probs the 64MB one) and then use that for all my saves and the two others as backups for the games I really don't want to lose.
Chars for the suggestions.
You seemed quite gutted about losing all your hard work so I thought I'd suggest getting it back with an AR. :)
