30 minutes for 1GB? You must have the slowest 20mbps connection ever. Even assuming you got less than half that speed (1MB/s) it should only take you about 17 minutes~
(edit) also link to stream?

The gamepad has about a 3 hour charge. I'd miss the best part.

First screen shot at 50% progress downloading gets a tag. Make it happen Wario64.
Might be 3-4am. Pure endurance test.

Still, I can usually grab that in about 30 minutes or less on a good connection this days. This is a joke.
Uh, now I'm sorry I asked.

My theory is the Wii portion is hacked before the end of the day tomorrow.
Sometimes it's about 15 mins., other times it's a little bit over 30 mins. The latter usually happens during evening hours when there's more than likely a a whole lot of people on.

Not good enough. That's for speedy, good updates. This...this is bad.
And the system isn't out en masse yet.

Frankly, I'd rather Nintendo have hit the release date for the system but kept working on the OS features right up until launch day, rather than start out with a console of which the OS features are months out of date because they didn't want to "bother" anyone with a day 1 update.
It's like some people have never installed Windows and downloaded a major service pack immediately. We're getting into rather complex suites of software now. OS and feature development is pretty much non-stop.

Might be longer than that, but I think Marcum still had some exploits for the regular Wii he was saving for the next time Nintendo did a system update to block the homebrew channel... which never happened... so after that's tested, I'd give it a week.
Or Nintendo will have learned nothing about system protection and it'll still be vulnerable to the Smash Bros hack... in which case it'll be up within minutes/hours.
The graph you're seeing is just a bandwidth chart from the Linux custom router firmware: Tomato.
His upload is faster than his download fyi. The blue line is his download speed.
I'm guessing its around 4 GB given what we know about the memory that should be available on the console at launch.

I'm only looking at his down rate. He's averaging about 300 KB/sec
Looks about 1.5GB given the graph (don't know how accurate it is though or what else he is downloading).
Salty indeed. If you're going to make bets then get ready for some to not cash out.
Seems quite a few journos are more mad that they didn't get their ~exclusive press club benefits~ and had to "lower" themselves to getting the same system at the same time as everyone else.

All wireless too, Nintendo didn't want to pay the extra for ethernet connections.

Maybe the updates are P2P that and that's why it's so slow right now! Not enough people downloading!
Yeah right
