Think you'll find it's more like 8 if you're talking about GBA games

Those flash cards are ranked by bits, not bytes, which is a big difference. This means that the 256 Mb flash card can hold about 32MB of GBA stuff.

with that, 32MB (256Mb) could hold about 4-2 GBA games, since most of them are around 8 or 16 MB.

The 256mb cart on average can hold 5 - 6 games, the older GBA games are 32mb in size, new ones are 64mb. ie. 4 x 64 = 256mb. It all depends on which games you load, Super Mario 2 is 32mb, Advance wars 64mb etc.
It's worth getting as it's easy to use and does not take long to load new games.

most games vary in size from 32 to 64,
the 256 card only has enough room for 4 different game save area's
so if u store over 4 games, they will not be able to use the save function

hope this helps

Some of you really dont know what your talking about

ex.

Bungle123 - "so if u store over 4 games, they will not be able to use the save function"
~~this is not true since you can divi up the spaces from 64 bits all the way down to 8 bits creating 41 4b etc.

Utaker - ""

~~ ur just not correct

Hmmm seems a little bit conflicting here, so I will try and shed a little light on this situation

Q.
Can you give me an idea of how many games can I fit on a Flash Advance Cartridges.

A.
64M - Two 32M files or one 64M file
128M - Four 32M files, two 64M files or a mixture of both upto 128M
256M - Eight 32M files, four 64M files or a mixture of both upto 256M

plus the question about the save games, you can alocate the save space where needed remeber not all games have save facility!!
