Next Nintendo home console will use HVD, the holographic data storage, it's a disc that could store up to 300 GB and the reading speed is near 4 times faster than PS3 bluray reading speed that reads bluray discs at a speed of about 5 Mb/sec and this holographic data storage can be read at a speed of 20 MB/sec. already in study 1 TB holographic data storage discs.

"Some have speculated that Nintendo will be the first video game console maker to implement holographic data storage due to the recent uncovering of a Joint Research Agreement between InPhase and Nintendo.

Nintendo is also mentioned in the patent as a joint applicant: "... disclosure is herein made that the claimed invention was made pursuant to a Joint Research Agreement as defined in 35 U.S.C. 103 (3), that was in effect on or before the date the claimed invention was made, and as a result of activities undertaken within the scope of the Joint Research Agreement, by or on the behalf of Nintendo Co., and InPhase Technologies, Inc."

 

Cafe will not even be much more powerfull than PS3. If today, BD-DL is already a bit unnecessary, HVD is completely overkill.
