an obvious and sensible fix from Nintendo
32GB should be enough for anyone !
Not quite...

nice update
But does it break a wasabi or drivekey?
BTW: I don't condone piracy. All my backups are just that, backups of my originals.
Miyamoto's new hobby!
It's internet porn, expect new Nintendongs title soon!
Re: Miyamoto's new hobby!
If it's Bukake can we expect White WiiWii?
re: Meh
If you're throwing controllers through windows, then the whole 'strap' thing (and the constant reminders) might be a bit too technical for you. Sounds like an ideal customer for that 70's VCR lookalike - the Ps3.
