This is a very funny thread to me, as I rember when the Wii first released, everyone said how you would never need more space than what was on the Wii, and in the event you would, nintendo would solve the problem, before there was a problem... I think that's just funny.
In regards to a solution, I think they should allow for a 're-format' of a SD card, and then link the card directly only to the Wii, and then allow games to be played off those SD cards. (that are bricks in other Wii units)
The problem Nintendo will encounter from allowing HDD, is everyone's favorite, MOD CHIPS. As, if you allow HDD use, you can likely mod chip the console, to allow any HDD, and also, ontop of that, likely mod it to allow 'non-legit' games be played off it. So it's really a loose loose situation.
Nintendo saving a buck early, costs us a buck later on.
