Kington Makes the Flash Drive Games Leap

Filed in archive Storage Stuff by Eric Hanson on August 18, 2006

I've mentioned flash drives with pre-installed software in the past; now memory maker Kingston has taken the next logical step and released a flash drive that has two pre-installed games, along with the normal 256 MB to 1 GB of space. The drive is called the DataTraveler Mini Fun and it comes with two puzzle games: atlantis links

and Magic Vines. From Kingston's description of the drive it sounds like they added the games as an afterthought to see if it would boost the drive's sales, but I can see this idea becoming a reason to make a drive in the future. Imagine going to a games store and buying a flash drive that can run the game as soon as you plug it in, instead of mucking around with installation CDs and hard drive space.
