Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Dear Nintendo: DSI SD card save solution

Eh, it's 12:30 pm, I'm going home, after that it's strait to Rune Factory or sleep. SD card dilemma has been resolved, the issue about this DSi save stuff is a concern for Nintendo and those with the issue.

It's always been the case that when you lose your game, your lose it all, same with the PsX Ps2 and anything else that has to be saved on a hard medium... though I doubt someone can lose a PS3.

True. Good night!

I dont think it would be good for nintendo to make an proprietary SD card when the Wii is open to accept any SD card that not over 2GB. What I dont get is that Nintendo allows an SD memory card can be used to store Wii save files, but then they made the Dsi with an SD slot, and the player cant store DS save files on an SD card.

 

Wii accepts SD cards up to 32g's

imo



hello how are you.

Recently, I was sent a package containing a loaner copy of Pokemon Platinum for the Nintendo DS.

The reason why I got the loaner of Pokemon Platinum was for review purposes for my site at GamersBlock.com. In reviewing the game, I put a lot of hours into playing the game, and through that; I became quite attached to Pokemon Platinum. My time with Pokemon Platinum is coming to an end, and I will be purchasing Pokemon Platinum as soon as next week. What really irks me about Nintendo is that they haven’t implemented an alternate storage solution for their handheld systems. I would have like when I return Pokemon Platinum, that I can at least keep the save file that I created and carry it over to my purchased copy. The days of using their propriety media to hold game and save files should have been long dead on the handheld side. Even back in the 90s, I hated the fact that I would rent games that I couldn’t beat in 3-5 days and when I returned them, I ran the risk that the next person will delete my save file.

We all know the DSI contains an SD cart slot, right? I would really appreciate if Nintendo offers an alternate game save solution on SD cards for all DS and future Dsi cartridge releases ASAP! Would anyone else?

 

I definitely agree with you esp. in Pokemon. After I've completed the game at some other time in the future I would probably want to replay the game again but I can't because if I do then I lose my previous file and all the work into catching and training. I don't necessarily want to buy a new game either, that would be a waste. The SD card solution would be perfect just like you can save mulitiple files on games on the PSP onto the Memory Stick Duo.

Sounds like a pretty good idea.
