N64 ROMs vary from 4 MB to 64 MB (that's bytes).

Remember, that MPH client doesn't have any AI in it, and only one controllable character. Even smallish N64 games like Goldeneye had quite a bit deeper multiplayer modes, and those games also had fully featured single player modes.

Something like a Play-Yan for the VC might be entirely possible though... although since there aren't enough buttons, emulating the N64 would still be a dicey proposition.

There is only one store with wifi downloads within 50 miles of me... I'm just saying that 5 other stores near me with DS demo units are likely to get wireless downloads.

Downloading from the Rev is fine with me, though :-)

And if you can't do that, just buy a $20 wifi card for your computer that is compatible with download play... no need to h@x0r your DS.

Sh!t, every time this discussion comes up, I completely forget about the lack of the necessary buttons on the DS...

My bad. That wouldn't work.

There are no download stations in my state south australia
just cause u can download demo's in usa and japan and doesnt mean u have to ruin it for the rest of the world and beselfish  
The fact is demo stations in stores are barely used these days iv noticed, they use to be really popular back in the snes days but these days, most ppl ignore them
I dont think retailers would be annoyed if you could also try them at home, if this was the case, wouldnt they all be mad at 360 live download demo's

Well the touchscreen can emulate as many buttons as you want, so it's not entirely out of the realm of possibilities.

You guys should probably concentrate on getting things like paved roads and running water before you worry about DS download stations

Then build your own. It's not that difficult.
