Summary[]

(1 Sony block is roughly 8 KB? And 1 Nintendo block around 1 Megabit?)

Console Storage
NES and Game Boy Passwords only for the Mega Man games.
SNES, GBC, and Sega Mega Drive Passwords for most Mega Man games, except Rockman & Forte, Mega Man Xtreme, Mega Man Xtreme 2, and Mega Man: The Wily Wars, which use cartridge SRAM.
N64 Cart
Game Boy Advance Cartridge SRAM or EEPROM.
Nintendo DS Cartridge EEPROM.
Nintendo 3DS Cartridge EEPROM. And SD card.
Sega Saturn System Memory, saving on the console's internal memory (up to 32k), or Cartridge Memory, saving on an external backup memory cartridge (up to 512k).
PlayStation PlayStation Memory Card. Each Memory Card has 15 save blocks for the saved data, with most games using one block, although some require more. PocketStations can also be used as Memory Cards, but many PocketStation games take over half of the blocks available. The saved data from each game is represented by an icon, many of them with a small (limited to three frames) animation.
PlayStation 2 and Nintendo GameCube On a Memory Card exclusive to the console. Their Memory Cards have more space than the PlayStation Memory Cards and were released with varying capacities. Like the PS1 Memory Card, the saved data from each game is represented by an icon, many of them animated. The GameCube's icons are in 2D, while the PS2's are in 3D.
Wii Internally (___ blocks). Most saves can be moved or copied to a SD card, with some exceptions (MM9, MM10, SSBB, ...).
PlayStation Portable Memory Stick Duo and MS Duo PRO.
PlayStation Vita PlayStation Vita memory card.
Others Internally (system or cartridge), on storage cards, or on a server.
Early mobile systems Mostly on the phone.
iOS and Android Mostly on the game's server.

PlayStation[]

Just a suggestion on how to keep the Mega Man saves neatly organized, and overall hints. Also valid for PlayStation 2 and GameCube, although they have more space, making it easier to organize them.

Memory Card Games saved Notes
Mega Card Mega Man 8, MMB&C, Mega Man X3, X4, X5, X6, ... With 9 free blocks. 7 blocks if MvC and PF are moved here. Less if Legends series (at least 2 saves from each game +1 block) is kept here in case a spare card isn't available.
Rock Card Rockman Complete Works 1-6, Rockman 8, Rockman: Battle & Chase, Super Adventure Rockman (ep.1-3), Rockman X3, X4, X5, X6 Japanese games. Just right. DASH series gets own card, while the cameos are separated in other card. Alternatively, the Rockman Complete Works games can be kept on PocketStations alongside their PocketStation data (over 10 blocks each), freeing 6 blocks for other games.
Legends Card Mega Man Legends, Mega Man Legends 2, and The Misadventures of Tron Bonne Each can have 5 saves, filling the Memory Card.
DASH Card Japanese version of Legends Card. Ditto.
Marvel Card X-Men CotA, MSH, X-Men vs SF, MSH vs SF, Marvel vs Capcom, Pocket Fighter, Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2, X-Men MA, X-Men MA2, ... Alternatively Comic Card (with the addition of other comics: Batman & Robin, Spawn, ... although not all may fit) or Crossover Card (replace 'solo' games by other crossovers, like the SRW series). If only the Mega Man related games (bold ones) are of interest, move them to the Mega Card.
SF Card All PS1 Street Fighter games: Collection, Collection 2, Alpha, A2, A3, III 3rd, EX+, EX2+, live action movie, anime movie, SFvsX-Men, Puzzle Fighter, and Pocket Fighter.
(Genre) Card A card for a specific genre. For example, a "Fighting Card" would have Tekken, Mortal Kombat, Ehrgeiz, etc. If there is enough space, can also include their spin-offs, like Sub-Zero's game.
(Company) Card A card with all (or most) games from a company. For example, a "Sony Card" could have all PS1 Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon games, plus some more. A "Capcom Card" could have the five Capcom Generations games, Buster Bros. Collection, Captain Commando, Cyberbots, Strider 2, One Piece Mansion, ...
(Series) Card For a series with multiple games, like the Mega Man and Street Fighter cards above.
(Game) Card Specific for a single game that allows multiple saves, in case one wants to have multiple saves in different points from the game. Specially true for RPGs, which would require many cards if one where to do this. For example...
(Mixed) Card Two or more of the above, but not randomly. For example, a "Capcom Fighting Card" can keep Capcom fighting games separated from a Capcom Card and/or Fighting Card, which might not have enough space for all. This card would keep Darkstalkers, Darkstalkers 3, Cyberbots, JoJo, Rival Schools, "Rival Schools 2", Star Gladiator, ...
