Well the game sizes are increasing and if nintendo will add multimedia support you will need that space. Personally Im tired of watching films in .DPG format

. Also I have a PSP and well 8GB doesn't do it, if the 3DS is hacked, and people will be wanted many games. Remember games could go over 2GB.
And that's assuming games are going to be out on the SD card in the first place. We still don't know that yet. In any case, using SDXC is not doing Nintendo or us any favours. Its just too much of a risk to put something that a very small minority is gong to use. SDHC is perfectly fine for the majority of people. Also, the 3DS is not going to be used primarily as a multimedia system. It will be capable of playing multimedia, but it will not be primarily a multimedia system and that's the important distinction. SDXC is just unnecessary when SDHC goes up to 32GB.
It was just some speculation thing, didn't say that these feature were going to be included. SDXC card slots support all other SD cards so whats the major problem? I don't know who who would want that memory but somebody might.

anyway not saying that these will be in there, I know most of them won't be in there, just guess as much as your imagination can stretch, I just though of what's missing from current DS.
I by no means meant to offend, but the fact of the matter is that added features = added cost. Nintendo won't invest their time and money into something that would increase the cost of the system to implement something that hasn't even been proven to be successful. Sure, some people may need it, but it's just not worth it. I understand that this is all just speculation, but SDXC is not within reason. Nintendo is very much like Apple, in that they use old, inferior hardware, but they spend a lot of time making sure that hardware works well for the consumer experience.
I understand, I always thought that these just required a firmware update to work, I don't know if the SDHC for wii was already implemented since in the beggining you couldn't use SDHC cards. Since they're already using a HC card slot, XC couldnt be that more expensive.


Anyway I want to know what features would you and others would also like to expect. You can repeat what Ive stated

I thought this was an 100% confirmed info thread because of the title...
*checks title

"3DS Features, It's speculation time!"

EDIT: Never mind, I had my head stuck up my ass for a moment there. Yeah, the title is misleading, but the first post isn't.
 
Its gonna have rumble, guaranteed. All the leaked reports on what the 3ds had to offer days before E3 stated it was exactly what we have seen it to be with the notable inclusion of rumble. Plus Pokemon Pinball is still one of my favorite handheld experiences, and rumble def added to it.
 
It's definetly gonna have built-in rumble, IMO.
One of Starfox 64's "wow"s was the rumble pack usage and Ocarina of Time uses it too.

The original DS already lets you transfer your WiFi data (Friend Codes and stuff) to another DS...
I mean they should keep that feature since it's suggested that there will be a new online service, and I want it to be compatible with old DS wi-fi games

I don't know how long you've lived for but the SDXC was announced at CES 2009, and was then shown working at CES 2010 and is expect to launch standard sized SDXC cards from 32GB by the end of this year.
 
Since when is Nintendo known for putting bleeding edge, horribly expensive new tech into their devices? That's Sony's gig. The 3DS will not have SDXC.

No, Sony will invent their own proprietary format that nothing else can use.

Duh.

Ouch... I'd rather buy a few 2tb external hard drives for the same price.... And aren't we a little off topic?
