Jeez why order from ebay for something so cheap? Just go to your local best buy or something and pick one up. No need to wait several days for it to arrive when you can spend a few more bucks and have instant gratification.

Wow, according to wikipedia 4 MB is the 59 block card. I'd go for at least the 251 or 1019 block card. 251 should be more than enough unless you want to play any sports games with huge roster files and what have you. Those are the only games I've seen take a lot of blocks.

Wii games only, not Gamecube games.

Yep, I've had a GC for five years, and a 251 and 59 have gotten me by just fine.

20 bucks for the 251 black card one. if you REALLY want to play a ton of gamecube games, spend 30 bucks and get the 1019 or whatever the white memory card is.

Or get the MadCatz version for less. :) (that's the only reason I got a 1019 block card)

You, sir, are an American.

Or spend half that for a 1000 or 2000 block (64 or 128Mb) 3rd party memory card.

I think that's the brand we bought from Fry's B&M, 2 for $9.99 IIRC.
