Heck to the flipping no. In my life, the only things I've ever used are catridges. I can't imagine digital media staying afloat in this world - an asurd number of technical problems would suffice, to say the least. That means it could eventually affect the whole system, just because it's not played from auxillary storage. Physical media is just compulsory in this world for consoles; just because one brand device seems successful in it doesn't mean we should already approach the 'new revolution' or whatever you'd like to tag it as.
Like one said, Apple appeals to mobile gamers. Their products are digitally distributed; why?Because it was a mobile to start with. Mainstream gaming excludes mobiles, so they don't even need any physical media anyhow. This digital thingamajig just wouldn't be enough for mainstream console gamers. Our network infrastructure would collapse, and especially online gaming. No backwards compatibility, and even if we could transfer, that is just too much hassle. Business would die for sure.
Just to say, I didn't even know the PSPGo went for digital media distribution. Shows how Nintendo fangirl-ish I am - I don't pay attention.
@WaveBoy - Oooh, Shroom Station. Could come with some kinda live Nintendo News radio.
@SilverBlacktail - It actually took me a while to make the connection, regardless of my brainless joke. It was the chat people that made me realise it. xD
Mr. Dillard, you have been tasked with updating and informing the Nintendo Fanboy/Fangirl Republic this coming June to uphold the stability of our eagerly imploding minds. Are you prepared to accept the responsibility this great task brings forth?
Seriously, so many games, so much info, so little time, SO LITTLE MONEY!
@Faron - No-one said you have to use it. The word 'compulsory' is hardly present.
I've personally never tried a Zelda game (unless you count Zelda Mobile - totally like the NES version), but I'm very familiar with most games in the series. Videos, wikis, playthroughs and the like. This is totally going to be my first, and what more - in 3-D.

Re: Darksiders II Launching in 2012 for Wii U
Now, this has certainly caught my eye. And it's hard to catch my eye. Even if you flash.
But still, this game looks awesomely smooth... This just may be an insta-buy for the Wii U if it goes the right way.
Re: E3 2011: Corbie on the Show Floor - Day 3

Re: Miyamoto: "3DS Could Be a Convenient Wii U Controller"

Re: Interviews: High Voltage Software - Conduit 2
I'm sure in between the questions in the interview, there was an awkward silence where they complimented each other's tea mugs.
Re: Star Fox 64 3D is a Newly-Arranged Classic with Motion Controls
Hm. Cool.
Yeah, I just wanna see outer space in 3D. Period.
Re: Talking Point: Can Nintendo's Next Console Top Wii's Success?

Having never owned a Wii, I'll be up for this.

Re: Rumour: Nintendo Stream Coming Sooner Than We Think?
I wonder if the Stream launches in yellow.

Re: Miyamoto: "I Will Do My Best to Deliver New Mario This Year"
Mario figurine? Pfft, they held him at gunpoint.
Re: Rumour: Could This Be the Next Nintendo Console?
Fake? I disagree. It seems... a speculation of sort. I do like the controller. But what's up with the console? Dude, looks like a sealed toaster.
If this continues to be Project Cafe, I better see a free coffee dispenser.

Flippin' heck. Along with Street Fighter, this is mine for sure.

Hope you dudes know how lucky you are... Congratulations, fellas!
Re: Talking Point: What You Want in a New Nintendo Home Console
Totally need to e-mail Nintendo. Integrated screen capturing would be awesome and useful, and I agree with what MasterGraveHeart ranted on.
Re: Rumour: Wii 2 has Blu-ray Drive, Controller Contains a Screen
Apparently, from another source, it has graphical power way over the Xbox 360 and PS3.
*/me screams for more salt. And seafood.
Re: Rumour: We May See a New Nintendo Console at E3
