How many blocks does each Gamecube game take?
I've been lookin', but can't find a list for the number of memory blocks needed for each Gamecube game. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.

It'll say on the back of the game. You can find scans of the backs of the games at www.dvdempire.com It tends to vary. Resident Evil takes 8 blocks per save and Rogue leader takes 4 per save, IIRC. Having said that, I'm very glad Nintendo is releasing an official 251 block memory card. From what I've heard, sports games like All Star Baseball 2003 can take up to 60 blocks for the franchise mode so the memory card 59 becomes worthless. I'm getting by for now with 59 but it's good that I'll have a bigger option soon should I need it.

I think no matter what the size of the card is, Acclaim and EA will have their sports games take the whole damn thing. Grr, I hate that.
Hopefully since the 59 one is common, they won't get greedy and require an entire 251 one.

When is the 251 one from Nintendo coming out?
The reason I'm looking for a site is I purchased some games online, and wasn't able to check out the back of the game. Some fan site has got to mention it....
