>>115060they did that with game sizes back in the day ( ´ω`)a game advertised as 16 MEGA (as in megabits) was only 2MB (as in megabytes) largethe Neo Geo 100 MEGA SHOCK indicated a game larger than like 12.5MB or so (which is admittedly fairly large, home console games on cartridge generally topped out at like 4MB, with a few games using extra hardware to support 5 or 6MB ROMs, which would be 40 and 48MBit respectively)and the so called GIGA POWER isn't even 1000Mbit, it means there's extra hardware to support up to 716Mbits (like 89.5MB -- also fairly large, except all these games came out in like 1998 onward so not really)all those GIGA POWER games look great though, so I can at least forgive them ヽ(´∇`)ノMetal Slug 3 is so pretty...!
>>115070they do that on the tv where i live
