yes they do, and i think Nintendo is going to release three SD card sizes, the smallest will be 512, the next step will be 1 gig, and from that you have 2, 2 and a 1/2 gigs (to hold very large games that used FMV sequences, recorded audio, or multiple disk games). but dont forget.... 2 USB ports
i'd say the most expensive download will be 20 dollars, and that would be like a more recent N64 game, though price may just depend on size of file, the largest file size equalling 20 bucks. couple that with the sd cards, which I believe will release for 15 to 30 dollars and not only do we have a choice of what to buy, but how to store it as well. again though, the revolution has 2 USB inputs, perfect for a hard drive. Not to mention the fact that Nintendo will probably have coupons and the like, like when you buy a new revolution game, you get 'revolution points' you can put towards the purchase of a game, or even aquire points by playing online or beating a game, possibilities are endless.
anyone realize the possibilities of storing things off the revolution network and then putting them in the DS which also uses SD cards as a medium? and is also online? and portable? yeah, me too *BECOMES LIQUED* Nintendo might say it at e3, but i think it's a pretty fair bet that we'll be playing emulated games on DS. Dunno about N64 games, but the DS is capable of emulating them as well. all you have to do is have the games and the respective emulator on the SD card or get the DS OS updated, over the network as well. Fuck, things are going to kick ass :D and yeah, play DS games on revolution by sliding the game in to the rev's SD card slot, and use the revcon as a stylus. Shit :D
