There isn't enough bandwidth on a residential connection to make that happen. There would be many minute loading times while data was transferred across the connection, and it would cost Nintendo a fortune since the same data would need to be sent to the same person many times, which uses a lot of bandwidth.

Streaming isn't the way to go for the strain it would put on Nintendo's servers...

Enabling direct SD card access, so that we could play Wiiware, VC games, and other things directly from the SD card would be a great step in solving all our disk space problems, would reduce the strain from people redownloading Wiiware or VC games after deletion, and would certainly make organization convenient for the player with many VC games or WiiWare.

Maybe some external HD support in the future, but we'll see what happens at WiiWare launch...

At least the Wii isn't so complicated like Live is.

Should not take me and my friend more then an hour to put in a card code.
