Whats the compatibility like for having PAL and NTSC (both Jap and US) saves on a memory card?

I ask coz Im (hopefully) gonna get a Freeloader and get a US Animal Crossing and Jap Ikaruga and I wondered if I'd need a new card to save different regioned games on.

I really dont want to screw up my PAL saves.

Just for the record.

checout the above link. about have way down, written by some guy called Luke.

Read the thread. You are in the minority. most agree that you can save UK.US on same card, with 2nd needed for Jap.

You must be doing something wrong dude.

I am glad AC comes with its own memory card!! Can anyone confirm freeloader is only a disk cus i havent heard much on the subject! I cant wait for AC!

I have two cubes; a PAL one and an american NTSC one. You CAN save both american and pal game saves on the same card, whatever WS says.

I know that and it seems, 99% of the Edge Forum know that. As i say, it's more than likely a simple case of WS doing something wrong, or simply doesn't know how to do it. Which is not a bad thing. You live and learn.

Just because you don't know how to do something, and have to be told/shown buy someone else, isn't somethign to be ashamed of, the whole point of the gaming scene is to share the info and learn.

Like I said, I have all this stuff and it DOESN'T work

I can only say what I've expirenced.

Glad to see that we've manged to bring the original question to such a conclusive end then. ;-)

Aye, seems SMB 2 (US) and the rest of my PAL saves feel happy to share the same card....


Maybe it's the SHINY SHINY Q... :D

I'm still not seeing anything to suggest being an arrogant S.O.B isn't a pre-requisite of owning a 'cube....

Maybe it's a shoddy 3rd party memory card

Isnt Q a japan only thing so PAL/US saves on a card used in a Q be fecked as soon as its used in a Q?
