[Feature request]: Enable/Disable individual virtual memory card slot #1032

So I've been playing Animal Crossing, and I decided to try and create a new town so I could travel to it. To do this, the simplest way is to insert another memory card that doesn't have town save data in the opposite slot as your current memory card with save data, and remove the original memory card. Then starting the game will allow you to create a new character and town. Then you can put both memory cards in, and travel back and forth between towns.

I was using the virtual memory card feature, since my only physical memory card is fairly small in storage. The game defaults to Slot A, so my original town save data is on the virtual Slot A. But I discovered that I can't disable virtual Slot A so that I can create a new town on Slot B (At least, as far as I know).

This is the request: Add an option to choose which virtual memory card slot is active.

Also, I seem to have maybe discovered a bug. I took my physical memory card, put it in slot B, disabled virtual memory cards, and I was able to create a town on my physical memory card while it was in Slot B. Then I enabled virtual memory cards again, and my Gamecube does not recognize virtual Slot B, or the physical card in Slot B overrides it? Because now I can play with my town on virtual card in Slot A, and the physical card in Slot B AT THE SAME TIME. My understanding was that you either used physical memory cards or virtual, not both at the same time.

Fortunately, this "Bug" allowed me to workaround the missing feature.
