WiiKey Fusion Announced

There is no official spec list yet. The product is a DVD drive emulator, so it will work on the new D3 version 2 drive and any upcoming DVD drives. In fact, like the flatmii, it will also work without you even having a DVD drive connected!

The word Fusion, and the fact that the products tag line is "the best of both world" implys it will allow ISO loading from SD cards and DVD loading

More details will be rlsd soon, we will keep you informed!

Definately sounds like a good idea but I wonder how many copy cats there will be once this releases.

Definately agree with you on that but I guess for some people it might be of use but as for me I think I'll stick with my 500GB HDD.

Nice idea and would be fantastic if USB Loaders hadn't been created. You'd have to have an SD card for every game you play, or have to wait 3 minutes every time you want to play a different game as you copy across the data.

Still a great solution for non softmodders I guess.

Just curious, how much of that 500GB do you use atm?

A Harddrive solution probably would have been better, but probably harder to install.
the D2Sun team have a product coming out called sundriver

would that interest you softmodders? Or is it totally free or nothing?
is it annoying for you guys to have to update files when new games come out?

Currently using 80.1GB but thats slowing increasing as I buy/borrow/download more games.

Agreed. I have about 200GB worth of games on my USB drive. I can't imagine using SD for this. This may have been a breakthru back in 2006, but I think it's too little too late at this point.

I also agree its not worth all the hype. SD cards simply don't have enough space to store so many games. What's the maximum capacity a Wii can handle for SDHC cards? 16gb?

I much rather use USB Loaders - its not accessable by everyone so I guess this is good for those who don't know how to softmod.

Would be better if they found out a solution to load directly from USB instead of SD cards.. Even if USB loaders now exists, it will be good for those with no softmod.
And if i am correct, USB loaders can't play them all.

I can't see any use with SD cards :/ You need to like buy one new SD card for each game you download/backup.
