# This will be the first ever 2 Gigabit DS ROM. There have been plenty of 1Gb games, but this time much more space has been required to fit all the extras in;

That's awesome. Reggie said something like "1 gigabit and beyond" at E3 2005, and I guess this is now. I'm just glad that the DS has the ability to get a bit more room to breath... guess more capacity doesn't mean anything unless you utilize it the right way.

Hopefully they won't get so big we can't fit them on a 1GB G6...

Stop crying ! This is what we alwys wanted, so if games get bigger, get a 2 Gb Card !

^ we get it!

 

[pristinemog]

I get it as well.

What I don't get is WHY HE HAS AN NCARD LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!

Nah, I'm only kidding. Bring on the bloated games!

He probably posted that from the DSO browser, it likes to quadruple post things.

8gbit? So 1gb? So you can only fit 4 of those games on your card? That's not that great

You... always wanted 2 GBit games? Would you please elaborate that? 'Cause as it stands this sounds pretty retarded. I want good games, I couldn't care less how big they are. You know, size doesn't always matter...

Damn, this is going to be so hard to fit on my 1GB microSD

 

[CockroachMan]

It seems like some people here can't understand that 8 GBIT = 1GBYTE

So, a 2GBit game has only 256MB. A 1GByte micro SD can hold 4 of those.

Don't forget that you can also trim the ROMS so you could hold more then 4 maybe.

Got a 2 Gbyte MiniSD on my ez4. bring it on!

 

[loathsome]

I have 4Gb. Highly doubt that some game will go over that limit. And if so, I'm so buying a new flash cart

 

[ugly_rose]

I'm thinking they will use these new, larger carts for Dragon Quest 9 as well.

Bring on the Hoshizora no Mamoribito!

 

[CockroachMan]

they should use this for PSX remakes..

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 3, Final Fantasy 7...
