That's an odd error, though it betrays the fact that the N64 has one standardized save method that's built into hardware anyway.
I suppose the main issue with the memory card in the controller is that the connection there was always iffy. Very often I'd have to jiggle whatever device I had in the controller slot to get it working. That might explain the 1st party card failing.
The only puzzle game I have for my N64 is Tetrisphere. It's actually pretty fun, though honestly "tetri" doesn't really fit as most of the pieces are made up of 3 blocks. Also, the music is this aweful techno stuff. You know, "du du du du du bedebo, du du du du du "Ready on my count", du du du du du".

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
