I recently decided to do some memory card shopping for my Nintendo Gamecube, but I have yet to find a better memory card than what I already own. The original one Nintendo created really takes the cake over anything else. ALthough there are better ones from third-party companies at about a few dollars higher than Nintendo, it is definitely the original Memory Card 251 that really takes the cake, with 4x the memory storage than the original memory card Nintendo created when the Gamecube was released back in 2001. This has to be the one for all your memory storage, don't get substitutes by other companies. They don't work as well as Nintendo's memory power

It's about time we no longer have the 59 memory card. The 251 is the only place to go for memory. You can buy other brands now that offer a 251, but lets face it they are not Nintendo. You have to have a memory card to save your games and this is the best one out. I own a bunch of memory cards and they are all this one. I would't buy another one to save my games on. Well that is until they make a bigger one.

Finally Nintendo does it right and comes out with a descent sized memory card. The 51 is simply too small even for some single games. If you have a lot of games (like me) you'll need at least one of these if not more. The 251 holds a goodly number of games in addition to being highly reliable. I've even had a couple close encounters with mild static electricity making contact with the card and it hasn't adversely effected the card's abilities (though I strongly advise avoiding static shocks by touching a light switch before picking up anything electronic).
One thing you all should keep in mind, despite this card's durability is to create regular back-up files. I recommend doing this on a separate card, making sure to label them so you don't get confused. This way if you do manage to fry your 251 card you wont kick yourself in the head for losing all of your hard fought data. As a back-up I have an I-tech card which holds more than enough to back-up two of the 251 cards. I do recommend, however, that you only use the I-tech as a back-up since some sports games aren't as compatible with this non-Nintendo made technology.
Happy gaming.

This memory card rocks. As soon as I got it I moved all of my other memory (except for the F-zero data, which strangely cannot be copied or moved) on to it and there's still plenty of space. Really cuts down the hassle of trying to find the right memory card and of running out of space.

With Memory Card 251, Nintendo addresses an issue that, quite frankly, should have never been an issue: lack of save game space. Even before launch, many felt that Memory Card 59 was a waste of space (and money) due to its paltry sum of bytes. As it is, some current GameCube games alone wouldn't even fit on the meager 59.
So, here comes Nintendo with Memory Card 251. Still smaller than Sony's card, and a mere speck in comparison to Microsoft's Xbox hard drive, Nintendo's 251 just barely gets the job done. In comparison to the 59, it offers much more memory space in which to save games. So it succeeds on that level. But with the competition offering such advanced features/items, you'd think Nintendo could have upped the amount of space to at least 512 or so.
To be fair, Memory Card 251 is a better card than the 59 model. It features a good amount of space to save a good amount of games, but pales in comparison to the competition. And it's Nintendo-produced, so you won't be worrying about missing data anytime soon.
Bottomline: The only quality choice for GameCube game saving.
