Nintendo Announces Storage Solution

October 2nd, 2008 No Comments   Posted in Wii

Nintendo, after far, far too long of a wait, has announced a solution for the Wii’s storage problem. Rather than have an external hard drive, Nintendo will allow Wii owners to store, and access up to 2GB of content right from an SD card. Nobody saw that coming. Other than being impractical, late, and a feature that could have been added much, much earlier, it’s exactly what Wii owners wanted right?

Before you run off an download Virtual Console, and WiiWare games to your hearts content, there is a catch. The service wont be available until sometime in the spring of next year. The fact that Nintendo wont have this ready for the holiday season shows incredible short sightedness, and the fact that this wasn’t part of the Wii at launch was shortsighted enough.
