It's about time we rumor-mongered ourselves, didn't we? According to our tip-off, Nintendo's working an a "double USB hard drive" as a storage solution for the console.
The hard drive is supposed to mount on the back of the Wii, and designed to look like a natural part of the console. A firmware upgrade will be required to use it. Furthermore, everything you buy from the Wii Shop Channel can be transferred unto the hard drive, no problem. The HD will be available in 32 GB and 64 GB models.
A date of release wasn't indicated with the tip-off, but I'm hoping this will be soon. At least, in time to convince HVS to make DLC for The Conduit.
Huge thanks to our tipster for the info.

first..you put anti piracy coding in the boot sector or another hidden sector that disallows ISO's
second..you put another bit of code that looks for the hard drives code in the new update needed to utilise the hard drive.

wait
that hasnt been hacked yet
why
intellegent security programming for once
i'm not saying it will never be broken
but its not impossible to make it work
so you circumvent the chip
the boot sectors reading for the chip
and vice versa
its not impossible to bypass
but if you think it is
well be my guest
the reason xbox was hacked because of the way the parts married
if ninty had right encryption load
youde never get it
