    Wii Wii to get hardrive soon , at E3 ?

    This is a very shaky rumor, but Computer and Video games claims they have some info about an upcoming hard-drive add-on for the Wii. They claim that since Neo Geo's Wii Virtual Console games are up to 330MB, there's not a whole lot of space on the console's current storage system to hold it.

    Confirmation back in April that Neo Geo games will begin being added to Wii's Virtual Console download service adds weight to the speculation, considering Neo Geo games are huge - some clocking in it at up to 330MB.

    those neogeo games were 330mbit, which is only 42mbytes
    The vast majority of them are well under 100mb, which makes them pretty small really, considering the Wii has 500 MB of flash memory.

    I dunno why such a respected magazine could make such a silly mistake. When you take into account these games could also be compressed far better now, its no basis to expect a HDD add on.
