Nintendo in a good place to run games that fill up a single-layer 25GB Blu-Ray disc, the format used by current console king of large game discs, the PlayStation 3.
initial reports before E3 happened did point towards Nintendo rolling out games that will be capable of filling up a single layer, 25GB Blu-ray disc without any problems.
