 SI> Actually, I never heard of it.  How much does it compress? 
 SI> Let's say 
there's 50 MB.  How big will the game be after compression? 
With current compression techniques, a 128mbit N64 game, would occupy around 
50meg at the most, but thats almost double the compression techniques used 
when the N64 first came out, sou in another two-three years, it will prob 
double agin, & carts will probably be 512mbit..
