I understand your retarded point, but that still doesn't make it any less retarded. If Nintendo somehow found a magical way to make super cheap GC hardware then the IQue would most likely be able to play GC games and they wouldn't be using the same type of flash memory cards. What I've been saying is that the media is a result of the fact that it plays N64 games and NOT the other way around. Oy.

What, DVD-RWs? I somehow doubt that Nintendo would ever do that. So no, I don't see any affordable (and not piracy-prone) way Nintendo could have made a system where you buy the games as you do with the iQue.

The largest Nintendo 64 cart was 512 Mb, or 64 MB. That was RE2. Sure it's possible that Nintendo could have made special, larger carts, but they did not offer them to developers. However, it is very possible for any GBA developer to use a cart well over 128 MB, and that is the point I'm trying to make. We're talking about capacity here.

The fact is we don't know the max size of a N64 cart because no one tried to push it. I am absolutely certain that 64MB is not the max size. No question at all. It's just that no one wanted to pay the kind of money a larger cart would cost. The GBA is probably similar, given that you say it can hit 128MB but the largest games are (as far as I know; there might be a 32MB game somewhere) 16...

Full screen as in blown up to fit a TV, duh. Of course the straight SNES ports look a bit worse than the original versions. But that is not what this is about! You said that it would be smart for Nintendo to start developing new SNES games if the IQue were released here, which is very stupid considering that they're already developing 2D games for hardware that's superior to the SNES! For that reason alone (key word being NEW GAMES), Nintendo could make much better-looking NEW GBA software than NEW SNES software!

Okay, you're probably right that the iQue won't be coming out here. And yes for most applications making GBA games would make more sense than 2d iQue games... but I do have one comment -- remember that this is a n64 as well as a SNES so it's not just SNES quality graphics...
