@apujanata, Baten Kaitos and RE4 on the GC don't compare well because those discs were not full size DVDs and were not dual-layer.
SSBB is a dual-layer DVD and it does not have to deal with having to be HD, so disc space will end up being an issue by the next generation of consoles for even those game that do not have a whole lot of voice acting and pre-rendered video, but by then the consoles will most likely support Blu-Ray for their discs because of the storage capacity. This generation of consoles has not shown that storage capacity on discs is any major worry at all though.
I don't see a Xbox 360 with a built-in Blu-Ray drive for movie playback coming out because Microsoft would be better served maintaining it as an add-on and continuing to pursue their digital distribution of movies on the 360 rather than making it more likely that people will just go ahead and use a Blu-Ray copy of the movie to watch the movie. A 360 with an enlarged HDD at a lower price point (such as the rumor going around about the current 360 model with a 20GB HDD being replaced by one with a 60GB HDD) is more likely than a 360 with a built-in Blu-Ray drive - though an add-on Blu-Ray drive is likely sometime in the future.
