You can copy games to and from the SD card, but Nintendo got cheap and bought like the crappiest card reader for the Wii so it takes a while, you can't load games via the SD card. And it was from a Club Nintendo interview(posted on GoNIntendo).

And copying them like that is a real pain in the butt because it only let's you have one game save file on your Wii and when you try to copy it to the SD card or vice versa there is no overwrite option so you either have to delete one of the files first or have more SD cards that you can copy to. Trying to take your files to a friend's house is even worse because on top of the above if they've never played the game on their Wii before you have to first start the game and then go back to the Wii menu and copy the file and then start the game again before you can use the save file.

And I think we can all agree that just a free downloadable hardware update would be better than having to buy a Wii HDD.

Nintendo has been investing in holographic storage, which I hear is expensive. I hope they don't go down that route for the Wii, I don't feel like spending too much money on a storage solution that should be simple to fix in the first place.

You mean the USB thing? If so, that was released years ago.

Yeah, that is kind of lame, unless it's cheaper than any other wireless router no one should have a reason to buy it.

Oh, now I know what you're talking about. I guess it's supposed to replace the USB connector, which wasn't really well received. If this isn't expensive, this may be a good idea, since it'll probably be better than the USB connector.

I already have a wireless router though.

Here's what the Nintendo Wi-Fi Adaptor looks like.

w00t for Cho Aniki! And the wireless router in Japan costs almost $60 and it only has two ports, I guess it's only useful for extreme cases.

You don't make a router with only two ports, that's just stupid. And $60 is quite a rip-off
