Didn't realize how hard MGS4's Disc Swap joke hit until I backed it up (programming.dev)

The Clip if you've never seen it before.

Recently I've been archive my PS3 library of games, and I just finished backing up MGS4. Normally a third party PS3 game is between 7-12GB, however MGS4 is 33GB. To play MGS4 on a 360 you'd need like 4-5 DVD's depending on how they compressed it.

Didn't realize how large games were back even a decade ago.

I have been seriously considering modding my old iPod Classic to expand the storage and add Bluetooth, but the fact that you still have to use the apple 30-pin cable is kind of a turn off for me atm

You don't! I've never done it but have def seen usb-c ipods and there's a kit from "moonlit market" that comes up a lot. Minor soldering required

This might be a helpful starting point :)
