    okay does anyone else out there miss the olden days of gamecube when we had memory cards. i absolutely loath not having them on wii and even using the sd card is such an overcomplicated shit storm...i miss being able to bring a game over to a friends house and be able to save my own file without a huge deal over it. and it really pisses me off that some games you cant even save data like smash bros brawl...i also think it would be spectacular if they would take a tip from psp and have data cards for ds...borrowing friends games sucks because usually there are only 3 save files and you dont want to make one on their game anyway..i like the opportunity to have all my important data backed up and save on maybee 2 cards just in case, and if my fucking wii breaks then god forbid all my data will be lost for smash bros and mariokart...not to mention the countless dollars spent on virtual console downloads...but thats another rant entirely..

    Yeah dude it's even worse for PS3. You have to bring the whole system data (which is at least 11GB), to another PS3, transfer the data.
    Some wii saves don't even carry over like Brawl, so stupid.
    Memory cards in the old days were the stuff.

    Sounds like you guys need to get a 360! =D

    But seriously, the 360 uses an old school memory card, or you can use a usb stick.
    Holy Crap I'm old :(

    My 360 doesn't have a memory card slot...
    And I prefer not to worry about memory cards, they were a pain in the ass :l

    Didnt the original 360 not use a hardirve XD
    personally I prefer hardirve stuff , you can back it up so I dont see it being that big a problem .
    plus you have to buy the memory cards and what not aswell , you could buy a sd card for something else and still store it on there , nut your never gonna use the memory card for anything else .

    Why don't you just take your Wii to your friend's house? It's not that giant of a console, it won't break your back putting it into a back-pack.

    No? The arcade version doesn't come with a hard drive, but it does come with a memory card.

    yeah i have a 360 and everything is pretty good as far as save data goes. wii and especially ps3 are all fucked up tho. and i dont enjoy having to bring my console to a friends house just to show him something on my file of one game..i would prefer a memory card i could just put in my pocket.especially if he already owns the console then i look like a retard. plus i dont feel like i want to take it anywhere cause if something happens to it along the way (pretty likely for someone as clumsy as i am) then i have lost all my data..which brongs me back to my thesis.memory cards are a much better idea.and i dont mind the whole harddrive thing aslong as i can copy data to a card.like the 360
