Yeah, increased internal flash. Currently only 512 mb and from what I hear, the bane of VC console buyers everywhere.

you're suggesting a 2 GB internal memory instead of 512? I think that would be an insignificant upgrade, though it would be nice if future Wii models had 2 GB for no price increase...but for your "Ultra Wii", I think an internal hard drive would be more significant and worthwhile, like 20 GB.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release. (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

Nintendo is apparently working on better external storage compatibility and saving, rather than making us choose between SKUs.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Sounds good to me. Give me the ability to plug in an external (USB) hard-disk and I'll be happy!
They could always release a pack in the future with the Wii + hard disk if necessary.
All they really need to do is automate the process of copying data between the external storage device & internal RAM - and speed up the menu refresh (does slow down a lot when lots of channels are installed).

Wii code: 2263 4706 2910 1099
They are being super cautious about it though. The last thing they want is people to be able to plug in a USB HD with Wii game roms on it, and play them through there.
I'm gonna say this. External HDDs are nice and all, but I hate useing external stuff. The Wii's novelty factor comes from it's size. If you put a HDD on it, you double it's size. I also dont think the Wii has a big enough power supply to run a HDD off it's power, so the HDD would need external power. (not sure on this but I know it's close)
The Wii needs solid state memory. Just use an SD memory card. I've linked to 1gb ones many many times for like 8-12$.
