The PS2 also had CDs.Veho said:What I want to know is, can you connect more than one of those new controllers at once?I'd hope so. Anybody know the resolution so we can check the bandwidth that'd be used for four lower-resolution screens compared ot possible 1080P output? Yeah there'd be come encoding overhead and input, but that shouldn't take up that much.

Playstation - CD.
Dreamcast - GD-ROM (modified CD file structure and tighter lines, modified PC drives can read/burn).
XBOX - ???
Playstation 2 - DVD, unmodified, right?
Gamecube - Mini-DVD, modified a bit.
Wii - DVD, modified a bit.
360 - DVD, modified a bit or plain jane?
Playstation 3 - BD, plain jane?

It not a pc for gods sake. Stop comparing.
Yup, I'm sure. They used CD's for the first ps2 games and switched to DVD a little later.Rydian said:You sure on that?KirbyBoy said:The PS2 also had CDs.You sure on that?

That just said it supported CD's(which it did). Most PS2 games used DVD's however, the only game I can think of that used a CD was Half Life. But yeah, all systems just have a modified standard. Just pointed out the Wii because it seemed like it was the only other system that said "proprietary" discs. Of course, you left out the PSP and its UMD...(it's a system I'd say)jalaneme said:Posts merged

I always felt that NSMBW should have had Mii support.Hadrian said:No._Chaz_ said:Anyone else feel that NSMBW should have had Mii support in the first place?
When I play a Mario game I want to play as Mario.
I hope this NSMB Mii is just a tech demo and that when they eventually do a sequel it is something more than that.

Whoops.jalaneme said:also will the wii u have support for gamecube pads? it should do as it supports gamecube games, i love the fact that i can play all my gamecube games in 1080p awesomeWaitwaitwhat? The specs did NOT list gamecube games. Only Wii discs.
In addition even if it does play GC games, it's not going to run them at 1080P.

I thought it was always DVDs. PSX games were CDs, so it had to read those (and then there's audio CDs).

I can see the news stories now.
Wii U controller Hacked!
Yeah, though to what extent I'm not sure. We have zero internal specs.DigitalDeviant said:Do you think it could be hacked to stream anything?
