Why doesnt Nintendo put more games on dual layer discs?

I'd like them to utilise the extra capacity of a dual-layer disc but only if they utilise it well. I read that Skyward Sword will feature a 'denser' but smaller overworld than Twilight Princess, so I'm not sure what that means for the overall size of the game. If they stick in fully orchestrated music and a heavily populated overworld it may very well be dual-layer, but it's not as if I'll be disappointed if they don't require that much capacity. Both Galaxy games fit on a single layer disc, and as far as I am concerned, they are two of the finest gaming experiences ever created, never mind this generation.

Mr.T-Tar pointed out The Last Story as a possible dual-layer game-if that's the case, we could have a truly epic RPG on our hands there. That's the kind of use of the extra capacity I want-if it benefits the game, use it, but don't try and force content into the game just for the sake of filling the disc.

Link? I don't remember reading this anywhere...

I think you guys are really underestimating how much space there really is on 4.7 GBs.

yeah, he's right, in Iwata asks Aonuma said  they had a sense that Twilight Princess was too big and wanted to create a "more compact and solid experience".

Funny how Miyamoto convinced Aounma to use motion plus lol
