>He misses the memory card era
I don't miss the memory cards but yeah I miss the era
>>723448569I hate that Sega's VMU never took off and became mainstreamMemory cards used to feel personal, almost like phones do nowadays
>>723448569I was an Xbox chad. Didn't need em.
>>723448569ps1 memory cards are so fucking small they make me mad. need to get one of them fancy sdcard memory cards
>>723450063gtfo my board zoomer shit
It was definitely soulful and made your savedata into a physical thing
>>723450105Xbox was the same era as Gamecube ESL.
>>723450095my parents would usually get me a console for christmas and a game and then literally never buy me another game for it. still had a memory card though to see all one of my game saves in the BIOS boot up
>>723450063It's still funny to think back to storage space being so limited that they even made memory units for the 360. Fortunately as soon as you got a HDD you never actually needed them. Also pretty crazy to think the 360 only had 512 MB of RAM.
>>723450517For whatever reason Microsoft thought it was a good idea to sell poverty-spec 360s without a hard drive back then, despite the OG having them on the base models. The memory cards were a clever workaround but it sucked when they made the 360 slim without memory card slots but still kept selling the shitty 4GB models.
>>723450979Yeah, you could at least slot your own drive in there when you realize 4 gigs isn't nearly enough.
>>723450105As >>723450316 said, it's literally 6th-gen hardware.
>>723450979By the time the S model launched you could use a USB stick
>some N64 games needed a controller memory pak to save any data, despite most just being able to save on the cartridgewhy did this happen?as a kid there were a few games I could never get to the end of because I could never save the game
>>723451319You couldn't transfer your OG 360's save files to the S, even with a USB stick.t. did everything there was to do in Bayonetta and the S didn't recognize the save file.
no one miss the gamecubeif you do, you are a sodomite
>>723451483Either big files (Mario Kart ghosts) or cheap publishers not wanting to cut into their profits to including saving.
>>723451483If you wanted your game to have saves on the cartridge you had to pay extra. This is on top of those cartridges already costing something ridiculous like $20-30 to produce. This is a part of the reason why there's only 388 N64 games released (and only 296 in NA). Comparatively the PS1 had thousands of games release.
>>723449417>Get old memory card from ebay or pawn shop whatever>Find someone's entire gaming history with a console all laid out from their first game to their last>See hours and stats. Sometimes even just a first name >Kinda feel bad deleting their data because I need to card for my saves
>memory card corrupts>all of your progress and files in literally every single game you own gets deletedNah memory cards were ass. The only advantage they had would be bringing your files over to a friend's house.
>>723450464My parents would give me a console for Christmas but I would never get a memory card. I remember beating GTA SA by leaving my PS2 running for like a week then I had to wipe all my progress away.
>>723451586The GBA player was neat.Almost everything else was gay, except the Capcom Five. (Well, Four)
