Double Dash not saving data properly and getting an error after it saves once per session.
Hi, hello, First post here. I recently found my gamecube's cables, so i decided to hook it up and play some Double Dash. here are my issues atm:
- the game says it saved the data to the memory card, but when i turn off and on the gamecube, there's a chance the progress i just did (like scores, unlocked cars and characters as well as maps and mirror mode) just disappears despite the game saving properly. Had to unlock toad and toadette twice due to this.
- when attempting to save for a second time during one session, the game tells me the save on the memory card isn't the same save i just used, despite the memory card not being switched let alone touched. only workaround i've found is turning off and on the gamecube after each cup, but like i said before, sometimes progress is just deleted despite the game saving correctly.
this also happens with mario sunshine. any ideas as to why this happens and how to fix it?

I'm guessing this is a third party memory card?
nope. first party memory card.
also, would like to add that pokemon channel saved fine the first time, but then couldn't save the second time as apparently the memory card was corrupted. i formatted it and the game managed to save again, but I don't know if the problem is actually fixed.
Doesn't sound like it fixed your problem if you are experiencing everything you wrote in your initial post. Do you have access to a homebrewed Wii or Gamecube to run GCMM? Try reformatting through that and see if it helps.
yeah it didn't really help what i said in my reply. i think the memory card was just close to dying cuz after formatting it keeps saying the saves are corrupt.
Is this a 1019 block memory card?
