We all heard the conference news and we all heard about the so called storage solution. However, I think most people didn't understand the actual announcement correctly:
"Iwata announced that future Wii software can be downloaded directly to the SD memory card. Finally! It will also be possible to easily move software from SD card to the Wii system memory." (IGN.com)
The only new functionality is that Nintendo allows VC and WiiWare games to be downloaded to the SD card, but to actually play them, you still need to move the games over to the Wii's internal memory.
This is probably the most stupid thing Nintendo has done this generation. We can't keep swapping games forever. In a couple of months, when people have too many VC and WiiWare games they want to play regularly, people stop buying new VC and WiiWare games.
In other words, Nintendo killed its own download service.
