Against the grain: Let's all have a HD Wii!

Lets see if I can think of some good reasons:

Simplify the connectors, just one HDMI plug vs 3 composite which can be plugged in wrong.

Games look better when they are scaled to the LCDs native resolution.

Increases the longevity of the Wii if they intend to keep it on the market.

Increasing the internal memory and storage increases the internet and media streaming options.

They could start building a better online network with applications and games from 3rd parties.

Hows that for 5 decent reasons for a Wii HD?

I'd add a sixth, at least from Nintendo's perspective...

• Remove GCN controller/memory card ports and specialized mutli-size DVD slot for GCN backwards compatibility in order to shave manufacturing costs.
