The fact of the matter is that the Wii needs a HDD...

So I can actually afford to have more than just a few N64 games on their without filling up every little bit of space on the console.

Who else would really like to see Nintendo put to use the USB ports on the back of the Nintendo Wii? I, for one, would most certainly love it. :) Who's with me?

I think Nintendo have actually asked a Japanese company to come up with a HDD drive. I read it in a magazine somewhere.

I would get one if they came out with it. But we'll see... I'm still waiting to see what hooks into the classic controller, maybe it's an HDD! Haha...

maybe not a HDD (there big and clunky and a bit overkill imho) but they do need something. imho the solution is a simple firmware update to allow games to be stored and played from external storage. enable both USB ports and the sd card slot for VC game playing. that way ppl could use spare usb memory sticks and SD cards. or they could use their own external HDD. there wouldnt be any extra security threat since ppl can already move VC data to SD cards and store them on their PC if they want.

I'd rather not have to buy an HDD when I already have an SD card. THey could just have a firmware update to allow VC games on SD cards to be played.

LOL at your sig. Hillarious!

Also what I REALLY think is needed is a Music channel, the ammount of use I'd get out of it would be mind blowing!
