| Yerm said: i like this, i like it a lot, but lets push out "Nintendo" from the main focus. what about consoles in general and how it could actually be a huge benefit for everyone.--- -even MicroSD cards can hold up to 128GB of storage, and that dwarfs GTA V's 60 gig size. -cartridges returning would mean no longer needing Hard Drive space for save files or to download data from multidisk games. imagine popping GTA V into a PC and playing it immediated with no downloads? -i dont think single cartridges for multiple devices is possible, but price cuts for the little guys are definitely a go. maybe we could go back to the $50/$30 price range opposed to todays $60/$40... |
What about patches? If a game has to keep being patched. And only a certain amount of memory is in the game. They can't do it. What about DLC? Halo's MCC patch was 20GB. So really the SD card alike would need to be 100GB. Than DLC has no place to be installed. You're forgetting the cost of a 128GB SD card. It's the sole reason why we still use discs today. Or BD would be SD cards too. The card alone would be 90%+ of the cost of the game. Games costs would have to rise to compensate for the cuts needed for the company and retailers.
