i know this is a dumb question but what is the advantage of the 256m card over the 128m or 64m

hehe yup
u got that
its basically
the size of the cartridge
as in how many games u can have on it
like
64 is less than 128 is less than 256 is less than 512
the bigger the cartridge
the more games u can have on it

So i imagine, you can get a menu system to page the roms in and out ???

This sounds sweet, my 7 year old keeps loosing the dam roms.

His case only holds 6 at a time, with this i could put his whole collection on 1 or 2 roms ??

Ok people as of right now the minimum cart size should be 256Mbit.

As some of you may know "Sonic Advanced 2" by itself is 128Mbit. So if you have a 128Mbit cart all you can fit in it is Sonic Advanced 2 and no have space for your save files.

A lof of games right now are 64Mbit and Now Sonic Advanced 2 and Golden Sun 2 are 128Mbit.

Here is how it works...

4Mbytes = 32Mbit
8Mbytes = 64Mbit
16Mbytes = 128Mbit

I have the Flash2Advance Linker II + a 256Mbit Pro cart. I'm able to fit from 3 to 7 games in it. Gotta leave some space there for the save files.

Nes Roms you should be able to fit lots... since they are 256KB and the bigger ones 512KB and of course a 256Mbit cart is actually 32 Megabytes.

some sites say that
other says mbit=megabyte
i was a bit confused
but 's all good
yea the nes roms would be a fun thing
