Nintendo announces new disk drive
Soggy Toast | 5:43 PM on 08.01.2008 28 comments


For those of you who have been waiting for Nintendo to reveal a disk drive, you're in luck.

(Not so)Recently Nintendo unveiled a floppy based disk drive for the Famicom. This new device will allow larger games than cartridges and the ability to save game progress. The first game that will be available for it will be The Legend of Zelda. Nintendo also stated that stations will be set up at specified locations allowing the disk to rewritten with another game, eventually having over 100 games to choose from. It is set for release on February 21, 1986 in Japan and a North American date has not yet been decided(Never).



I bet you thought this was about the Wii, huh?

I don't see this new disk system to be as stable or reliable as the cartridges.

Seems like they'd be more prone to... break.
