DS carts aren't R/O, are they?

Of course they are. They might have a small flash/eeprom on them for saving - but 99% of the cart is R/O.

 

Well! That shut me up.

R/O carts are kind of a dream for me, then.

I wonder how big a solid state drive could feasibly be by the time the Wii's successor comes out. Could Nintendo sell a disk drive add-on that lets you burn disc images of Wii games (or Gamecube games) onto your console's drive? Or even just lets you play them using the add-on? Would the last be possible with USB 3.0?

If they wanted to, they could come out with a system for like a hundred, hundred and fifty bucks next gen, with an optional disc drive add-on, and destroy the world. It's an interesting thought.
