Currently, the memory expansion pack for ds is only released with the purchase of DS Opera Browser. It contributes another 10MB RAM to the 4MB RAM built into the current ds, as this is needed to load internet pages and such.

However, it would be interesting to see Nintendo utilise this option more than just internet.
What if the memory expansion pack could be used to reduce lag?

What if nintendo used this to produce games that move at a sharper, clearer and faster rate?

what are your opinions for the memory expansion pack? what would you like to see nintendo do with it?

If Nintendo did utilize the memory expansion for other games and not just the browser it would have to be a switchable option. Similar to the way it was with the N64 and the RAM expansion. I'm guessing Nintendo didn't bother with the idea because the DS browser didn't sell to well there for there isn't a large user base to accommodate for much like the rumble pak unfortunately.

Insidious, I'm fairly sure it's possible to switch the cards from the cartridges for the browser, you just need a Tri-Wing.

Too bad I don't have access to a credit card (or a close-by bank,) looks like i'm stuck to CoD and eBay/PayPal.
