Any tips for GC Saver?
It worked for Sonic Adventure 1 but doesn't work for SA2 or Final Fantasy CC.
I'm sure it works. But follow the instructions how to use this app.

I have a NTSC GC, and, some time ago, a PAL game formatted my memory card. So , I lost all my savegames (including Mario Kart, Zelda and F-Zero ones).
Today I tried this application. Worked for Viewtiful Joe, for example.

But not worked for Mario Kart.

Have anyone tested with Mario Kart? Is there a hope for these protected ones?

Oh yeah... one day a Japanese game formatted my memory card, and... ALL GONE. Just everything. My Pokémon BOX Save with 1000+ Pokémon in it (from 3 playthrough), my Zelda WW save, my Pokémon Colosseum save, and the lsit goes on... just these was the MOST Precious ones...

SKH, hang on; re-wind. Does GameCube Saver do this? Because that would be brilliant. What are the limitations / release status (alpha, beta?).

Cheers

Where do you download save games?

I've been trying to find a Battle Stadium DON complete save game for a while now, but no luck

I found two saves, but they didn't work.

I found an incomplete save, that one worked, but it's incomplete.


I'm looking for this because this game has the stupidest way of unlocking characters. by GAMBLING! I like the game, but not the way of unlocking characters.

What? The memory card format?

No, Gamecube Saver don't format your card.

And there's just one version of Gamecube saver as far as I know.

Yeah, we NEED the newest version asap!!

Okay guys, it's time to do something now!!

I was everytime checking if there's a new version or not, and everytime I see there isn't.

So we need to contact with the author!

Who's with me?

Yeah. It would be awesome if somebody can carry it over and finish it.

Has no one seen the new app posted on wiibrew? It's called NuGaSa (by nixx) and it will backup and restore Gamecube saves. It works great. hXXp://wiibrew.org/wiki/Homebrew_apps/NuGaSa

Also, you don't have to do saves individually by inserting the discs. It will pull up a nice looking menu showing every save on your GC memory card and you can save them one by one. It's very quick but hopefully in a future release you will be able to backup every save with just one button.

I'm sure it works with saves like Animal Crossing that won't copy, but I didn't try that yet because I don't know of any games I have that don't allow copying.

Anyway, this should solve your problems.

I don't know if it will actually work, though.
