I have a 1019 official Nintendo gamecube memory card. It never had problems on my cube. When i started using it on my wii, it got corrupted after a while. I bought a couple super cheap third party 4mb memory cards and copied the data to them and both got corrupted as well after a while. The wii can't even read them the game says "There is no memory card in slot A." IDR if the first time it happened was before or after I downloaded homebrew and started playing PM, but it definitely re corrupted afterwards after going through a period of working again. Recently i reformatted my wii and it's memory and my 1019 started working again (but not the 3rd party memory cards that I bought, both of those were still unable to be read by the wii). But when i re-downloaded homebrew to play project M (my only SD card is 8GB) the 1019 worked normally at first but got corrupted again after a couple uses. I'm just wondering if anyone knows if this is a common problem because I've heard the 1019 can have problems with corruption years down the line like mine but i've also read that that's it's a myth that the Wii corrupts them. Is this related to the 1019 itself, and if so should I get a new memory card such as the 251 which apparently doesn't have the same problems? Or is my memory card fine and homebrew is the problem and I therefore should just get a smaller SD card and download the hackless form of PM? If I HAD to choose between melee and PM i would pick Melee but I'd like to be able to play both if the hardware permits. Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks,
