Good job Nintendo

Have to give them some praise. Releasing wii update 4.0 and actually making the 4 gig card I bought for the wii work today with the SD card channel has really made me happy. Storage was the wii's biggest fault and holy shit Nintendo actually did something about it without setting up some kind of external HDD and charging an arm and a leg for it. Now not only can i use a larger card, but Im not as hesitant to purchase more games of the VC.

I agree! I downloaded this update and immediately moved all my VC and Wiiware games over to my SD card. While it may take a few more seconds to boot up the game, it is a whole lot better than having to micromanage all your downloads by transferring back and forth from the Wii and SD card (plus the black aesthetic is so awesome). Good thing they released this update as soon as they did because with games like Cave Story, Eduardo the Samurai Toaster, and Night Game coming out I'll be needing all that space very soon. That's not to mention all the great VC games that are bound to come out in the future (please release Earthbound on the VC Nintendo! ). Hope everyone else is enjoying the update as well.

Like Lier X Agerate I moved all my VC and WiiWare games to my 16GB SD Card, freeing up space for game save data and Channels. Many kudos to Nintendo. As far as an Earthbound on VC, one can only dream. Luckily for me though I have the cartridge and played it maybe a month ago. But I want to see it on VC one day to bring this game to gamers that never had the chance. Not to mention find out where Lier X Agerate got his name from.

i would have still liked the option to add a HDD but yea this was nice

Im still not downloading many VC games, even though I thought I would. I dont know why im so hesitant to purchase content on the Wii, other than the fact I dont use it much. I did buy the Castlevamia Rebirth game, but I havent touched it since the day I bought it. still have like $40 in Wii money available, and honestly pissed I cant use that account to purchase DSi Ware.

There is a plethora of amazing material for Wiiware and VC, as opposed to DSiware, which is full of shame and awful Sudoku smut.

When they made this fix I was happy, but after I installed version 4.0 my Wii began having problems, and I can no longer leave it on standby which grates on my effing nerves.

Sorry for the necropost.

You call that a necropost? This is a necropost! lol

Now I'm ashamed. I really don't have anything else to say on this matter, other than the 16GB I'm using in my Wii is overkill. I have way too many blocks left unused. Maybe the Wii U will make better use of it.
