I don't see any reason games couldn't be played directly from the SD card. You can use MP3 files from your SD card for Excite Truck, so it seems speed would not be too big an issue.
I just downloaded this for VC the other day, I hadn't played it in probably fourteen years - I have been playing it almost non stop since I downloaded it.
Incredibly fun, tons of exploration, great puzzles, well designed dungeons.

Re: Wii Neo Geo Joystick Coming in April
Now, I would love for the same thing to be done with the NES, SNES, N64, and Genesis controllers - seriously, I would buy them.
