Why NS 128GB SD is better than Xbox/PS 500GB HDD.

[SvennoJ]

I really hope that these assumptions about how well SSD cards work turn out true.

It takes damn long to copy the contents off a 32GB SDHC card to my pc. It takes forever for the WiiU to start up and launch a game from internal memory. My 1080p camera gives the middle finger to the so called class 10 SDHC cards, not fast enough for 24mbps write speed. (while rated at 80mbps)

I use them for storage yet don't really associate fast speed with them. I don't buy the expensive ones though. Perhaps the 128GB Class 10 UHS-2 SDXC cards for CAD 230 can keep up, yet that's almost as much as a console, plus the write speed of those cards still only matches the write speed of a 5400 rpm hdd.


Anyway what happened to all the wonders of digital games, cheaper, use/play anywhere, pre-loading, no card/disk carrying/swapping. Nintendo is bringing physical back.
