    You often needed to switch memory card to change between games, depending which card your save was on, and people would certainly not turn the console off to do that, nor does the GameCube manual say you should.

    You didn’t need to turn the console off to change games? In a disc based system? Wut?

      Nope. It was pretty normal for multi disc games. Once you got so far, the game would give you a “insert disc X” screen," where you’d hot swap the discs and keep playing. I remember FF on PSX doing this.
