I think HD graphics would be a bad idea due to how expensive they would make both the console and developing games for it. However, I would've probably liked it the Wii was capable of running the same level of graphics the 360 and PS3 can do on an SDTV. That would still be lot cheaper than HD graphics, right?

Actually, it would be the opposite: HD only with current Wii graphics (textures, polygons, etc.) would be cheaper than better textures, models on SD.

For me it would be these:

-DVI/VGA out (almost impossible)

-720p, at least in the browser (likely with a firmware update)

-More USB functionality (VERY likely)

-Standard/easier online friend system (unlikely)

-More media playback functions (from SD cards) (very likely)

-The aforementioned GC savefile support

That's all. Only the first thing would need radical design changes, so it's impossible... unless they devise a component-to-DVI :)


 Seems you really want to hook up your Wii with a DVI/VGA signal.  If you don't mind spending some extra money check out the x2vga2.  I use it with my 19" LCD monitor and it works amazingly well.

Myself I wish better online support could be added.  Ditch FC and use gamertags, voicechat, centralized online experience ala LIVE.
