I predict cartridges will make a return. Mark my words.

 

lol, with all the SSD and flash-memory developments going on that could actually happen.

 

Ditto.

I thought about this a while back, and it's highly possible. I mean, if you increase the speeds of the USB hub connectors inside the machine, a developer could release their entire game on a USB travel drive that you insert into the console and play it right off of at a fast frame rate. And you can get high capacity ones for cheaper now, too. The only problem is, most games use about 10 to 20 GB in size normally, and USB drives of the same capacity are still relatively expensive. But once those go down in price soon enough, this could actually happen.
