How to Use a Gamecube Memory Card

Many video game consoles make use of memory cards to store and save gameplay data so a player can pick up where he left off if he has to quit in the middle of a game. Memory cards serve as an external memory unit to keep track of game data, which usually can be managed through the console's main menu. Using a Nintendo GameCube's Memory Card varies from game to game, but managing the data is a breeze.
