Lack of money meant I didn't pay any attention to the SD memory cards when they were first released.
I still have a lack of money, but took a look anyway.

You can't use them for general saves, only with particular games (marked with a SD logo).
We'll probably begin to see them a few months down the line.


That is all.

I was dissapointed to find this out, also.

These have so-much potential, and there was quite a bit of talk about them prior to the GameCube's release... But now, they just don't seem worth it - especially if they're only gonna be compatible with "updates" that only get Japanese releases, like Animal Crossing e+.

And I'm sure I read somewhere that they're not even compatible with SD Cards any bigger than 16mb (like the Official 251 cards)...?

If that is the case, you'd be better-off spending £30 on a 64mb USB memory card, which would, basically, allow you to do the exact-same stuff with your piece as you should be able to with the SD adapter.

And, you get a lot more space.

Are you lot talkin about the adaptor that was meant to be released that would allow you to use Panasonic SD cards as memory cards?

If you are then I didn't even realise it had been released!

If not what are you discussing?

What the hell is the point in that?

"Only for use with compatible games"

Pfft.

They seem pretty pointless to me I think!

But if they let you connect them to your PC and download extra levels/tracks for games in the future, then they might turn out useful!
