The Wii is supposed to have 512MB of flash memory. What is not clear is if that is storage memory analogus to a hard-drive for a computer/xbox360/ps3/whatever or if that is the system memory, like your computer’s RAM, or if it is some combination of both.

As far as the games are concerned, they are being designed for a system with X amount of memory, they should work fine. Also, remember that they are going to be stored on a CD/DVD/whatever, not on the machine’s local storage, so that really isn’t an issue.

Well 512MB memmory will be enough for the older games, but what about
the new games like “Medal of Honour:Airborne”,Call of Duty 3,
Metroid Prime 3:Corruption etc.?

This is generally just interweb speculation, but I’ll try my best to answer your questions:

1) The Wii has slots for GameCube memory cards and is supposed to be using SD cards for saving.

2) NES to N64 games are relatively small. You’ll be surprised how many you can fit on the 512MB. Rumors abound that the Wii will be USB hard-drive compatible.

3) Import enthusiasts hope so. Signs point to maybe. Don’t hold your breath though.

1)can we save the games on wii?

2)As it has a very small memmory(512MB), how many games can we
install on wii at a time?

3)And will the wii-game DVDs be region coded?

Actually, if Sega were still making hardware, the flame wars would be much more epic.

I would start in on how Mortal Kombat II for the SNES was better implemented than on the Sega Genesis, and you’d turn around and be like: BLOOD BITCH!

I digress.

I’m very much looking forward to the Wii. I have some reservations as to whether or not the controls for games like FPSs will work like how I’ve envisioned them, but other than that, I’m happy. I have no problem waving my arms around smacking virtual tennis balls, I’d imagine getting four people together in that kind of situation to be a real hoot.

On top of that, the Virtual Console nearly guarantees I can get games that I missed when I had the time, but no the disposable income to enjoy them, like Demon’s Crest.

However, that’s not to say the XBox360 or PS3 aren’t going to be great as well, just that I’m very much more interested in the Wii.

Great first article by the way.
