What is the point of getting an N64 Memory Card if games save directly on the cart?

Question

I got an N64 bundle that came with 2 memory cards, but I don't see what the point is in using them. Are there any games that would require one?

Answer 1

The memory card is so that you can transfer memory to another N64, and it also gives you some extra storage space.

Answer 2

The main reason for doing this is that you can transfer your data to a friends N64.  Or honestly.. I have heard of some really hardcore players that have more than three saves of a game which is what most of the limits.

But yeah, not many people play N64 anymore so maybe for you it's useless.

Good luck!

Answer 3

Yes there are.

Basically all sports games require a memory card.

There are also a lot of different games that require memory cards such as Gauntlet, World is not Enough 007, etc.

There are actually a lot of games that use it, so I would keep em just in case you buy one that does need it.
