Instead of 512MB tied to the machine, all memory would be via the SD card installed in one of 2 SD slots. That way, if you had to send out your Wii, all you had to do is remove the card and you get all your data.

It would also allow you to upgrade your primary memory to larger than what it came with.

I'd also make the nunchuk wireless.

Adding another thing to online, TrueSkill.

It sucks having to play with someone so much worse than you, bringing down the team, or against someone so much better than you. TrueSkill is a saving grace.

Mario Kart Wii does have something like that (although it doesn't seem to work all that well).

I'm with you on that, also I'd prefer it to have DVD playback.

Really for me its just two things.

-Hard Drive (for all the VC titles, downloads etc.)
-Stronger/improved third party support.

With all that, you're basically asking for a whole next-generation console. You'll have to wait a long while.

You won't be seeing all that in a minor "Wii 2.0" update. Maybe more storage and DVD playback, but not the rest.

I mean why didn't they just use SD memory for the games? If a game manufacturer wanted to make some ridiculously large game (GTA IV comes to mind) for the Wii then they could do it.

The Wii does need more processing power only because it is discouraging some developers from going Wii.

Cost. SD memory is very expensive compared to the cost of pressing a DVD. Especially SD memory that can hold as much as a DVD (remember the cost of SD memory when the Wii came out).

More processing power = more-expensive console = fewer sales. The Wii is selling just fine, so it's the developers' fault if they aren't cashing in on its popularity. The market has spoken loud and clear that fun and affordability are more-important to more users than graphics power, so either developers get with the program and deliver what the market is asking for, or they suffer from their own mistakes.

Never fear that Nintendo's next-gen console after the Wii will be more-powerful than the Wii. Technology marches on, and the Wii was more-powerful than the Gamecube. But that won't be for some years and there isn't going to be a more-powerful Wii.
