Yeah, I understand why the sizes are 2x multiples ^^
Thanks, now I also understand where that trimmable "extra" stuff comes from; apparently data on a game-card storage works a quite differantly than data stored on a flash drive (more differant than I had expected). So thanks for clearing that up ^^
Kinda silly people blame everything on trimming. Granted, from what I read trimming in general needs a bit of refinement or just a "steady hand", but blaming everything on trimming when it comes to rom problems would be like blaming a volcano with an evil spirit inside for all life's misfortunes (ok, perhaps a little too overdone here XD ).
Well, if that volcano erupts frequently...
The "steady hand" you describe would be more knowledge about every specific rom being trimmed, because the filler data is in different locations on each one. (Not entirely true, but true enough that trimming the same range in EVERY rom would break a large quantity of them.)
