The games are big but not that big one 2 gig card could pretty eaisly hold a good 4 or more large Dreamcast games without compression. With the compression tech they have now for Wii-ware im sure they could squeeze a good 10-15 games in that space.

SD cards are much larger than 2gb now. And they'll only get cheaper in the future.

You didn't buy Jaguar for good games. It is the same class as 3DO, you buy it to be snooty and have really corny pointless games. Like "Attack of the Mutant Penguins" ha my favorite corny game on Jaguar.

I just finnished "Hell" a Cyberpunk thriller on 3DO. What a god awful game ha ha but I finnished it.

True but Nintendo was stupid and didn't allow access to the newer highspeed SD cards with the Wii at best people have had luck with the 4 gig SD working most brands only 2 gig will work. Heck they have 32 gig SD cards out now and are in the works for a 64 gig.

USB flash could be different though if they supported it. And with compression technology 2 gig's is alot of space specially when used for an older CD based system that never got compressed a whole lot by todays standards.

I didn't know that. Actually, I don't know much about SD cards, at all. I took an SD card out of my digital camera and attempted to insert it into my Wii but it didn't fit. Do they come in different sizes?

Yeah there is SD, SD mini, SD micro



Like shown here normally you get an adapter to make it a Standard size SD card.

There are also a good handful of other types of Memory cards other than SD. SD just seems to be becoming the standard all of a sudden and the other formats are dieing out.
