So everyone knows that the Wii's storage is pretty rubbish, and although the console's SD card compatibility helps to some extent, that fact it cannot read any card larger than 2GB is pretty restricting.

Well now some clever CAG forum user has figured out how we can double the storage pretty easily, which will at least do until Nintendo sorts something out itself.

The process involves taking a formatting a 4GB SD card and filling it with 2GB of dummy files. Once you insert the card, you delete the dummy files, and voila - double the storage space. Hurrah.

For full details on how to do this, head over the CAG forums for a detailed walk through.
