I own a 360 and one of the things I always do is download a ton of demos, so not having a demo channel on the Wii is kinda annoying. But im I the only one who wants to see it?

Well..... think of it this way, where would you save the demos?

On 2gb large Sd cards when the demos will be about 800mb-2gig, that will be alot of Sd-cards unfortunatley.

Yes, you are the only one that wants a demo channel.  Can I answer another pointless question?

Because you posted a pointless question, and I felt the need to post a pointless response. 'nuff said.

Original: Quote: Enthüllt: Wii-Demos als Download Wii-Besitzer mit Internet-Anschluss werden sich Demoversionen von Wii-Spielen herunterladen können. Die Vermutung gab es schon länger, jetzt ist es offiziell: Neben Virtual-Console-Spielen werden Wii-Fans mit Internetzugang auch Demoversionen von Wii-Titeln herunterladen können. Die Demos kann man dann entweder im 512 MB großen Flashspeicher der Konsole oder auf einer separat erhältlichen SD-Karte speichern. Welche Demos den Anfang machen, will Nintendo in Kürze bekannt geben. Translated: Quote: Revealed: Wii demo as Download Wii owners with Internet connection will be able themselves to download demo versions of Wii plays. The assumption gave it already longer, now is official it: Apart from Virtual CONSOLE plays Wii fans with Internet entrance will be able to download also demo versions of Wii titles. One can store the demos then either in 512 MT the large Flashram of the console or on a separately available SD-map. Which demos make the beginning, Nintendo wants shortly admits to give. Its from a german site, so i had to translate it....

Demos arent that big, Lost Planet had an online demo for 170 MB. Thats pretty small, and Super Mario 64 only takes up 300 blocks and its a huge game, i dont see space as a problem.....

You are definitely not the only one that wants a demo channel, I am sure a lot of people to do want it as badly as you do. I always think realisticly and a demo channel for Wii games is not feasible with the current design since demos are getting bigger in size, unless an announcement from GDC or E3 or TGS changes things around. I am not sure how much gameplay you would get if you had to play it off of an external SD reader or the internel flash memory.

On another note, I am been impressed with the demos availible on XBOX Live over the Playstation Store, especially GRAW2.
