Do not adjust your monitors. That is not a tiny hard drive.

Nintendo has announced it will open the Wii SD card slot to solve the system’s data storage problem.

A Wii system update in Spring 2009 will enable the use of SD cards for storing downloaded Wii games.

Eliminating the need for constant data transfers, customers will also be able to play their downloaded games directly from the SD cards.

Stay tuned to Infendo for more Wii storage details from Nintendo’s North American conference, scheduled to begin later today.
