The Wii has some storage issues. Just a bit. Personally, my Wii memory is full and so is my 2GB SD card. If you buy a few WiiWare and Virtual Console games, you’ll be running out of space pretty damn quick. We know Nintendo is working on a solution, but we now know it won’t be a hard drive. Here’s what Reggie said in an interview:
We are working on a storage solution … We have never said that it will be a hard drive nor have we mentioned how we will fix this issue, but we are going to deliver a better way to store the games.
Ummm, ok Reggie. Unless you enable USB storage from flash drives and allowing us to use the SD card to load things in-game, you won’t be coming close to a hard drive. I can’t wait to see what they come up with.

I mean the storage solution they have in mind can be bad or good and the idea of going for it is pretty innovative other than a USB HD, but chances of getting a Holographic Data Storage solution is somewhat 50/50
I bet it will be server-side saving, to make use of the internet connection on the Wii.
