I like the Wii, alot. And I know the system is fairly limited. However, there is room for improvement all over the place. I have some ideas and things that I would like to see in an update in the future, if anyone has ideas and things that they would like to see on their Wii - then feel free to add some. Perhaps Nintendo can have a little read of this (lol) or provoke some people to write to Nintendo and moan at them to create such features in the future - here goes! I would like the Wii to have more Mii edit options. Like resizing the head to be short, or narrow. I would like to have more Mii edit options (part 2) - this time, I would love Nintendo to include special items for Mii's, like hats, glasses, face-paints, shirts - etc. If you bought a game (like mario galaxy) then you can simply insert the game, and download the Mii content from the disc onto an SD or the Wii itself. The stuff could include a Mario hat for your Mii to wear. You could then trade items with friends who have earned items from other games for their Mii's - but do not have the items that you have. This would be a cool way to have a Wii version of achievment points. I doubt Nintendo will have wiipoints as earnables. But having stuff for your Mii's unlocked when you achieve certain things sounds pretty good to me. I would like the Wii to be able to play background music on the main menu. Access, say, the settings, and tell the Wii what music you want to play with what channel. I am getting irritated by the looping Mii editing music, when you edit 2 or 3 Mii's - that music can drive you crazy. So I hope that the Wii can accept your own MP3 tunes, and use them as background tunes. Perhaps pressing HOME can bring you to a music selection window... I would like the Wii to have a custom screensaver, or background for the wii channels. It would be cool to go to the photochannel, select picture and "set as background". You can then see a feint pic that you chose on the wiichannel menu. Also - if you leave the wii discarded for a little while, a screensaver appears - showing you a slideshow of photos, whilst playing music of your choice. Lastly, more Wii software! Stuff that is small in size, but fun to use. I would love to have a wii aquarium sort of thing, which runs at real-time, you can go and play games and things, but you need to come back at some time to feed the virtual fish. Again, it would be cool if there was a Nintendo fishing game, which you could then catch special fish to put in this aquarium . and then you can trade these fish with friends. Anyways, those are my thoughts. :)

I'm hoping they'll update the Wii so that I don't need to turn the Wii's internet standby mode on in order to get on the net and go VC shopping and such. My Wii Internet is enabled, but for some reason, you have to have the standby mode on too, which I think is annoying.

Yeah, I quite like the idea of a Wii aquarium... Lol, they could call it the "Aqwiirium" :P I thought that it could just be a channel (like the news channel) and its internally stored, so people can add fish to the aquarium (like friends, etc). Friends could even put little "challenges" inside there for you, like a stinky fish which makes the tank fill with algy more frequently, and makes the other fish move away from wherever it is. Also - I thought that you could drop Mii's into the aquarium, and they swim about in little diving suits. And getting chased by the scary fish. I think I may create some sort of project and send it to Nintendo... will let you know how it goes! hehe. ALSO - It would be cool if you could customize the aquarium with things of your choice - If you fill it with skulls and things like that - the fish become mean, if you fill it with flowers, they become hippy-like... And if you mix it about a bit, fish can have different personalities, and terrorise eachother. Then, you can drop a Mii in there to sort them out. I would also think it would be good if you got "stuck" in the aquarium. Like, you could have all your fish be cranky, no matter how much you clean the tank or put nice things in there, or get the mii's in there for them to chase. You would then get a message pop up in their thoughts (when you click on one, a bubble appears with what they are thinking). In one thought it could say "I really want a samus aran Ball to roll about..." so, you then buy something like a virtual console metroid game (or metroid 3) and download the ball to the aquarium. hehe.
