I was wandering if Nintendo will somehow create a storage device that plugs into the gamecube ports on the side, seeing how you can remove the white doors from the Wii.  That way it would still keep its sleek look.  Maybe they plan to use the USB ports for something.  I would love to see a storage add on that plugs into the gamecube side that makes the GC memory internal and offers wireless connectivity to the Wavebird without having to plug the receiver in.  Seeing as they discontinued the Wavebird, this would be unlikely.  Any thoughts here?

Consoles with addons have longer lives. I can't even count all the Ps2 addons it had!

(a steering wheel was one.)

great ideas

If they do, give 2GB MINIMUM....

I could see an external memory add-on using the USB ports, but I highly doubt that the Gamecube controller and memory ports will be used for anything other than what they were originally intended for.

yes of course

I've already theorized a housing that allows you to use a modified Wavebird receiver. that fits flush with the edge of the Wii. After all, people still plug gamecube controllers into the gamecube ports, so why would they give you a memory expansion that would take up one of those spaces, when they have the USB ports already available?

Any add-ons would probably use the USB ports, I really doubt they'd use the GC plugs.

I only see a memory add-on. I doubt nintendo will do anything with the GC ports.

Nintendo has been historically burned with add ons (RAM extension worked ok, but 64DD etc bombed big). So they will be very careful...
