They should make an update giving is 8-16 GB of flash memory.

dude you dreaming, you'll get 2GB if your lucky otherwise I get the feeling that Nintendo will probably go for the 1GB, you know why cuz Nintendo doesn't want to go the high tech road and the wii is a clear example of that, but hey it's Worked for Nintendo so Kudos to them.


 

8-16 GB of FLASH memory is "high-tech"? OK...

 for Nintendo, yeah, very high tech, for everyone else no.


Nintendo spent two generations with technology which was far more advanced than the market leader and ended up having a shrinking marketshare to show for it ... "High Tech" isn't an unfamiliar concept to Nintendo, they are just the only console company that has realized that "High Tech" for the sake of being "High Tech" is a bad strategy.

Maybe they're wrong, but seeing how the XBox 360, PS3 and PSP are selling compared to the Wii and DS makes me think they're really onto something. I suspect that if Nintendo saw value in puting 8/16/32/64 GB of flash memory into the Wii they would do it without question; in contrast Microsoft and Sony would have put 64 GB of flash memory into their system and then tried to figure out how to use it.
