SDHC support for Wii in TBRB?

[aricron094]

One of the biggest problems I have with the Wii version of Rock Band 2 is the storage problems. Wii Menu 4.0 came out earlier this year, and I know that RB2 can't be patched or updated in any way to allow for SDHC support, but is it possible that the Wii version of The Beatles: Rock Band might carry support for SDHC cards?

I hope so, but no official word yet.

I'm right there with ya. I will quickly drop the $70 + for an SDHC. If we're gonna get as much dlc as I think we are for this game I want it all on one card.

Really, I can't think of a good reason why this wouldn't/shouldn't have SDHC support...

Because development was started before Nintendo mentioned SDHC support, and having to recode it would delay the Wii release enough to not met the 9/9/09 date.

I can't imagine why it would take that long to rewrite that part, but I'm not a console game developer.

Well, I'm going to keep an eye on them and pick one up when they go on sale. I have a good feeling they'll make SDHC compatible with TBRB. Like I said before, with all of the dlc (and custom dreamscapes) coming for this game, they have to help us Wii owners out.

Maybe they'll patch it in... oh wait, Nintendo doesn't give a **** about patches. My bad.

I got tired of all the crap Nintendo pulls. Lack of universal mass storage support, not allowing game patches, stupid rules for the digital store... I sold my Wii. I won't support a company that cares so little about what its hardcore customers want.

Newsflash: Nintendo doesn't give a crap about hardcore customers. And since they're so much more profitable than X360 and PS3, maybe they have the right idea.

I hope we get it. I'm gonna buy a 32gb if it is.

If it's not, then forget it. I won't even buy TB:RB DLC. I don't know enough Beatles to buy their DLC anyway.

Newsflash: Nintendo HAS to care about hardcore customers. They sell the consoles at a loss and make up the money selling games. The average casual Wii owner has very, very few games. I've yet to meet someone besides myself who owned more than Wii Sports, Mario Galaxy, and maybe one of the plethora of party-mini-game type games. Hell, I know more than just a handful of people who ONLY own Wii Sports. If they don't keep the people who buy 10+ games happy, they can't keep their profits up for the long term.
