Depends on the game, but there's going to be written sectors no matter what I would think. From Save games to generating terrain in things like Minecraft. It would be interesting if they could do a paired folder thing where all the writing would be done to the OS drive and read from the SD.

That being said, I think the wear will be much less than on the RPi since it's not running the actual OS off of it, not that I have anything to back up that theory...
