It’s amazing to think that the hours of struggle and weeks of adventuring that we put into our games in the 90s could be boiled down to fit in just 8 kilobytes of data. That’s roughly how much space each block on a PlayStation Memory Card represents, adding up to just 128 kB, or 1 megabit, in total. At that scale it’s no surprise that some of the more ambitious games out there needed more than just one block in order to record all of our progress.
