Even when you play directly from your SD card you have to have enough room available on your Wii's onboard memory to copy it over to for the duration of play

And this would have to be a big-ass SD card, even ignoring that

Notice I also said System Menu 5.0.  If you recall it was System Menu 4.0 that allowed the current SD card solution.  5.0 would expand could expand that further by allowing direct SD card code execution.  Besides, a 32 GB SDHC card runs only $80 and prices are dropping quickly with 64 GB and 128 GB models due soon.  Or System Menu 5.0 could allow USB HDD's and code execution.   Or System Menu 5.0 could allow for the exporting of just the executable code to the internal flash memory first (very tiny file size) and then dump the SD card to the RAM like a regular disc based title (would eliminate any loading or data streaming issues - think Monster Hunter 3 with 0 delay between worlds).

May as well toss another prediction in there: Removal of friends codes for registered consoles or via parental controls.

I will admit that this stuff sounds almost like sorcery

I dont think any of that will happened but with softmod you can put full games on sd card and play them so theoretacly Nintendo could achieve this with an update ala 5.0

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

Nintendo is going to put an actual release date for Metroid Other M and Super Mario Galaxy 2 for America. They're also going to reveal a new title, possibly tied to the Vitality Sensor. Regardless if the new title is tied to the vitality sensor or not, they will both reveal a new title and reveal more info on the 'Vitality Sensor'. Finally, they're going to announce their support for third party titles outside of Japan (namely Dragon Quest IX and Monster Hunter Tri).

....and Iwata will give a 20 minute presentation about how Nintendo is leading the industry and show graphs.



Six upcoming games you should look into:

How in the hey-nonny-nonny would that work?

Downloading directly to your SD card...

Even when you play directly from your SD card you have to have enough room available on your Wii's onboard memory to copy it over to for the duration of play

And this would have to be a big-ass SD card, even ignoring that

They must devise a way around it, then... but I don't think they will.

And yeah, big-ass is correct.
