And a few lament that Mary-Kate and Ashley won't work properly with the 1019 memory card.
Nintendo of America released a statement regarding problems that older games may encounter with its new Memory Card 1019. With a capacity four times that of the original, some (predominantly more low-key) games will cause errors or not run at all.Games with known issues are as follows:
- Backyard Football: When trying to format an unformatted Memory Card 1019, the game will freeze. Games save normally on a formatted card.
- Sonic Adventure 2 Battle: If there are more than 999 free blocks on the Memory Card 1019, the game cannot display the amount of free blocks. Will work normally with less than 999 free blocks.
- Darkened Skye: If multiple save files are created, the game occasionally will not allow any new files to be created, even though there are enough free blocks on the Memory Card 1019. Removing and reinserting the Memory Card 1019 when this happens should solve the problem.
- WTA Tour Tennis: Does not work with the game--Nintendo suggests a Memory Card 59 or 251 for the game.
- Disney Sports: Skate Boarding: Does not work with the game--Nintendo suggests Memory Card 59 or 251.
- Disney Sports: Soccer: Does not work with the game--Nintendo suggests Memory Card 59 or 251.
- NHL Hitz 20-03: (1019, 251, 59) When trying to format an unformatted Memory Card 1019, the game will freeze. Games save normally on a formatted card.
- Mary-Kate and Ashley Sweet 16: (1019, 251,59) Graphics sometimes will not display properly if a file is loaded and restarted after quitting the game. Nintendo recommends to power the system off and back on before loading the file to play again.
