It's a bit limitied to what you can use the SD card for at the moment though. Virtual Console games storage (for when you run out of space) and presumably soon Wiiware games too when they come out, pictures, music and if you have a copy of that Zelda game, homebrew too :-) Maybe this will chance and Ninty will let us store other things on memory cards (although I can't say I'm holding my breath).
