How to Erase Pages on an N64 Controller Pack

Not all games for the Nintendo 64 gaming system, often referred to by gamers as the "N64," have the ability to hold game saves on the actual game cartridge. One way you can save information from these Nintendo 64 games is to use a Controller Pack. The Controller Pack that you use with your N64 will have a certain amount of "pages" that can hold game saves. You may need to erase pages from time to time in order to free up space on the Controller Pack.
