Game Storage Medium

 There are two types of Game consoles those that use cartridges and those that use compact disks/blue-ray disks. Two known users that use both of these storage data are the Sony Playstation series and the Nintendo Series.
      

The reason why the consoles change there storage medium is because cartridges are very expensive to keep upgrading the memory in them so both sony and nintendo worked together to introduce the compact disks as a new medium but nintendo back out of the compact disk idea because they thought it wouldn't be popular but sony kept to it and introduced the original Playstation 1 and Nintendo are best known for their Handheld games such as the gameboy colour, advance and DS/3DS. The playstation series became more advanced with there CD-ROMS such as the playstation 3 game disks are on a Blue ray disk and the playstation portable storage is a small disk inside of a protective case.

Over the years from the simple tapes to catridges to now disks; people have found ways and new technologies to pirating the game data. The tapes where simply copied by coping the data onto another tape by using a tape recorder machine, disks were pirated from placing the data from one storage device to the disk such as music and films or simply documents.
