I can't believe some people actually think an SSD in a home console would be a good idea. What sizes do you have in mind exactly? If they add a 250GB SSD to a console the price will go up $200. Even if the console is not a single bit more powerful than an Xbox360 you'd have to pay $400 if there was a 256GB SSD in there...

As for game cards... I've said this in another thread: even 32GB cards would be very expensive compared to discs and we will need 32GB of storage next generation. That would mean game prices of $79 or even higher for games on 64GB cards. And it would still hurt publisher profitability (and thus 3rd party support) a lot.

i really don't expect to pay the same for my games in the future as i did 1995. so $79 would really not shock me (damn isn't that cheap thinking about what i had to pay for n64 games most of the time?)

and there was a guy few posts eralier talking about ssd without writing possibilities which would make it much cheaper but i donÄt know anything about this.
