Xbox 360 Arcade shipping with 512 MB storage

June 17th, 2009 Posted in Business, Hardware, Technology, Xbox 360

It has been uncovered that recent shipments of Xbox 360 Arcade, codenamed “Jasper”, are shipping with 512 MB of internal storage, as opposed to 256 MB when the console launched last year. With memory prices decreasing rapidly over the past few years, it’s no surprise — 512 MB of storage costs pennies on the market. It remains to be seen whether Nintendo will also upgrade from 512 MB in the Wii, something the console could use.

    i just got an arcade form Walmart for $150 after a $50 savings, i knew it prob wouldn’t be a 512mb model, but the manufacturing date surprised me, September 25th 2008, 8 months ago. so if i loose my receipt i’m basically down to a 2 year warranty, so im goign to best buy who has them for the same price and hopefully that have models manufactured this year, maybe even a 512mb model
