Just how many space you got on your MicroSd?

With a 1MB card I can barely keep about 10~15 games in it. I just put all the roms on the root, alphabetically sorted, there's really no 'secret' to it.

You meant 1GB didn't you?

I have them in 1 folder, that's it, I have around 20 roms, since my R4 doesn't support freaking 4gb! (so lame :S) Is there any firmware that can fix that?

Or a cart that isn't a R4 that supports SDHC like an EDGE or an AK2!

Like amny have already said, use sepearte folders, or if you don't want to there is another ninfty way. I would suggest, considering that you want them seeing organized upon inserting your microSD into the PC, organizing the files by TYPE, and then in the folder options pick the option that then put them into groups. That way, all .nds .mp3 .gbc etc. .sav etc. are all organized and you can eaily see where they are

It used to matter to me when I started getting roms.

Then I realized it was better to have a microsd card for all the privileged will be playing them more than once top drawer games (which are not sorted other than bt alphabetical) and a microsd card I use to test and make sure A. the rom even runs on a flashcart, and B. I am still interested in the game after taking an initial look at it (not all games actually live up to the promise).

The more you organize them, the longer it takes to open the damn things hehe.

1MB card, you wouldnt be able to fit one game on it, let alone 10-15.
