    Default Possible Gamecube memory card problem?

    Ok, I just bought one of them new "1019" memory cards, so I decided to move all of my other saves onto it. I ran into a problem.
    When I tried to move some files, it would not let me. It said something like "File cannot be moved". Know that this is NOT because I have duplicate files. The specific games are Medal of Honor: Frontline, Animal Crossing, and Pokemon Coliseum. I think that is all. I am guessing Nintendo put some dumb block on copying these, since people could exploit it in the games, buy I dont know why I cant MOVE them. If it is a block, it is really stupid, plus I dont know why they would block the medal of honor game.

    Is this an intentional block, and if so, is there a way around it??

    Hmm... could you load the game, swap out the memory card and save the game on the new one?

    It's a good idea, but really it shouldn't come to that (there shouldn't be a problem dammit! ), i think i'll just stick to my old size memory cards, there pretty cheap and you can hide them away with the game, when you don't need them, ahhhh Nice! (i mean cheap nice, so i can have a few mem cards)

    Th "1019" is an official Nintendo card, and its the same size as the others. It will fit in a case.

    Hi Skidragon, yeah i know the 1019 is official, and comes in white and the original color black, what i was saying is that the original GC mem cards are alot cheaper now.

    Meaning you can bascially have one for each game (If you chose to?), which also lowers the rick of losing game saves if your "1019" were to fail, or lose any data, i'v also heard that using an Action Replay can in some cases wipe mem cards too?!
