Memory Card A Needs to be formatted - Xlectik67 - 07-26-2009

Hey, im kind of new at this, and this problem seems so simple, yet its complicated.

I have an ISO of Animal Crossing for Gamecube, and it loads perfectly fine, but when I enter the game itself and it starts a new game, the dog playing the guitar says "The Memory Card in Slot A Needs to be formatted".

I went into memory card manager and saw if i had any .raw or whatever a GC memory card is, and I didnt see any files in ./User/GC/

I don't understand why it says i need to format my memory card, when i dont even have one.

uh just say yes when it asks if you want to format your memory card. you have to do it for every save

Just for every save for a new region. Else it just askes if you want to make a save file like a normal Gamecube.

It thinks the card is corrupted because it reading nothing. So have it reformat and the card file will be created.

Because there is no gamecube save file yet ( or I understand it at least ) in the folder . When the game ask you to format the memory, in the proccess the memories cards are created
