| hunter_alien said: 64 GB would be amazing. Even a 32 gig card. The issue is that as more as you increase the size, your profits drop. Nintendo might push a multi-size approach here, but then we will see compromise budget wise. As cheap as they got, making a 64 card just for games is still way more expensive than simply pushing it out on BR. And if they choose an even lower size, then yes we will have yet another CD vs Cartridge, 5th gen issue on our hand. |
It makes sense they would have multiple tiers of cartridge capacities, so that goes without saying.
It doesn't make sense to use a 64Gb/32Gb/16Gb/8Gb cart if your game is only going to be 4Gb.
And this is all powers of two. Nintendo could opt for multiple memory chips in the carts and combine say... 32Gb with 16Gb for 48Gb.
I can pick up a 32Gb Class 10 MicroSD card these days for about $15 AUD (We are typically expensive). - Nintendo likely has scales of economy on it's side, so we are talking cents per gigabyte now. Not dollars.
