personally i want hybrid storage read write capable flash cart thing.

read = release game
write = patches and dlc

this will eliminate the need for hdds, hell a 1TB on PS4 is not enough since we installing the game data.
the need to worry about backing up everytime you install a patch,
when gen ends and services are shutdown all the dlc and patches are on the cart and can be used on any console even if original one fails.

^ this so much this.


Also not only are you saveing on the no bluray drive & royalties, but also saveing on HDD costs for your console.

Cheap console that just does 1 thing, play games.

 

To bad they didnt go this route though, patent they filed shows a internal HDD.

*edit: I wonder if just haveing a SD card slot, would be enough to survive without a HDD shipped in a console?

couldnt you just inform people they need a SD card with free space on it, if they want to install a digital game?
