Not sure. That could lead to things like piracy imo. Shame
Just the save data. No copying retail games to memory cards.

Oh well I've just checked with my local store and so far, the largest save memory required was for FiFA which is 160mb O.o but most games are only about 50mb if not less. So I think I'll go with the retail solution. Got myself a case that can hold up to 8 game cards so I'm fine. Smile

Yeah, the main purpose of the memory cards aside from the save files (which are indeed small), is for digital games. Most of the full games on the PSN are between 700MB and 3.3GB.

Lol... how about those casual-mini games on PSN? Do they take up that much of a space as well?

So far, for the Minis I've checked, the smallest was 2.4MB and the largest 2 were 85MB. The average seems to float around 6-12MB for most Minis, with only a few reaching the 30-60MB range.

Well those aren't so bad. So I guess I'll stick to retail for full games while maybe getting a few of the "smaller" games from PSN.
