Its most probable that they will release a hard drive, nintendo cant keep releasing new channels and things to download onto the wii with only 512mb of space and expect people to get more sd cards.

With WiiWare titles coming up Nintendo is basiclly screaming HARDDRIVE!!!!!

I mean they have a F-ing FF game on there.

The upcoming WiiWare Final Fantasy is not a traditional Final Fantasy RPG. It's simply somewhat of a Sim game in which you build up your own town. I was disappointed when I read that...oh well.

However even a Sim-like-game would take up alot of space as WiiWare.

I wonder if there will be a new Wii 2 years from now. :( That would suck, but with the way consoles/handhelds change these days, I wouldn't doubt it.

its about time for nintendo to release a HDD, maybe this was part of their plan, they waited, made people want a harddrive, and then they sell it seperatly to make more money

It better be a cheap hard drive. $50 has to be the max price. It doesn't have to be larger than 10GB.

..........are you crazy? 10gb=nothing. You probably don't know much about technology, but there is no HDD in the world these days that are 10gb for $50. More like 80gb for $50.

The Wii doesent need a Hard Drive in my opinion. My 2GB SD card is all I need, and in the unlikely event that it somehow fills up, then I will spend £20 on another one. I dont need a Hard Drive. And neither do you. The 360 and PS3 are different however and need a Hard Drive because they have multi mediapossibilities such as being able to download movies which takes up lots of space.

Don't you get it? You can't play any sort of game from SD cards on the Wii.

Would take just too much Redownloading stuff... don't think nintendo will be dumb enough to do that down and redown thing.

Just wouldn't work.

In which case, you'd simply need a Hub.

Two things. You assumed I was saying $50 for 10gb when in fact I was stating two seperate things. It shouldn't cost more than $50 and we really don't need more than 10gb. Not that we should get a 10gb hard drive for $50.

Second, have you seen the ridiculous price Microsoft charges for a 20gb hard drive? $80-100 bucks. Yeah, for the PC internal or external hard drives are cheap but for a console these companies love to gouge the customer because these hard drives only apply to their hardware.

I hope so more space is better for me... as long as the thing isn't too expensive like the 360 HDD.
