Resident Evil :DS: 1GB Memory Card ?

Gimpymoo · 19 Jan 2006 at 20:20

After looking online recently, ive read various "Rumours" that the soon to be released Resident Evil on our lovely beloved handheld will be the first ever 1GB DS game?

Anyone else heard this?

Seeing as the game is 2 games in one, the original PSX version (With original cheesy Voice over acting) and the NEW DS Res Evil, maybe rumours of a 1GB card are not totally bogus?

£26.99 according to some off shore place.

I maybe wrong, but I believe Nintendo said at launch of the DS that much higher capacity would be made available for not much more than the then 256mb Cards.

As I said, its only speculation/rumour ive heard.

Yeah, 1GB is 1024MB.

£26.99 for 1GB of solid state storage. My how things have changed..

VERY much so. Although, Kudos to Ninty, Solid state storage WILL BE the media of choice for EVERYTHING in the future, may as well start using it now... UMD's, PAH..................... Awaits fanboy attack.

Nice editing skills there

WANG, the size of the cart is 1 GIGABYTE.

Werewolf, following on from that comment and slightly off topic, is it possible that future PSP games MAY use dual media (UMD AND Memory Stick) in a similiar way to the Sega MegaCD?

I know it sounds weird but it would be one way of overcoming the limitations of the UMD.
