    Hello KC-MM, matteron here, been away for a while, but anyway, to what actually matters...

    I was reading up on why the wii freezes whenever a file goes over its size limit and I discovered it is because the wii loads everything to its ram, and if the files take up more ram than the wii has (90mb) then it crashes.

    So, here's my idea, (not sure if it even works) what if we were to tell the wii to use a flash drive that located in the usb port as RAM.  Not sure if it is possible on the wii, but I know it possible on simpler computers. (Arduino says hi.)
    Any feedback would be great,

    RAM is a special kind of memory, named because it can be accessed quickly and in a random order (as in, if you wanted the 3rd thing stored, you wouldn't have to go through the 1st and 2nd). As such, its hardware is extremely different from that of a flash drive. 2GB of RAM is a lot more expensive than regular flash memory for this reason.

    tl;dr: It's impossible.
