i can think of a few improvements allright.
i wish there was a bit more umph under the hood. not bothered about HD or anything like that but i wished ninty just went a little further with the guts of the machine. maybe double the shader lines in the GPU and break the 1GHz barrier with the CPU. i reckon they could have gotten close to that if they just made the wii a bit bigger so a better heatsink could be fitted. a little extra ram (maybe 128MB instead of 88MB) also wouldnt hurt. i think they could have squeezed more out of it without needing to raise the price.
more internal memory would have also been nice. i dont know what ninty were thinking when they thought 512MB of memory would do the job over a 5 year period.
instead of using the DVD drive i think it would have been better if ninty further developed the drive inside the GC. maybe double the disc capacity (3GB would be fine for wii), double the spinning speed and enhance the read rates and access times. since wii is not able to play DVDs, i think they could have gotten more performance out of a complely custom drive with custom tech, like the GC drive.
some sort of scrolling wheel on the wiimote would be ace. would make weapon selection much easier for example.
overall im happy with the wii though. needs some beter games (MP3 on friday over here....cant wait) but there coming.

That scrolling wheel sounds like a pretty good idea to me. Where do they say something good is ace? It sounds cool and all, but I just don't hear it where I live.
