Missed this thread way back when, but yes I found out about what you mentioned all these months back ABF. It is SO bizarre that they'd remove the online options when physically it is still capable of using the one USB port with the LAN adapter. That's just Nintendo not even trying there, since removing the option outright doesn't really save them any money if the USB port is still there. And yes, they not only removed component support (yellow jack only), but they are using the same extremely cheap parts they used in the NES and SNES remodels, meaning vertical lines across the screen too. Yay!
At any rate, that Wii Mini still hasn't been released outside Canada, so it looks like it didn't do too well there either. Eh, that's for the best.
So anyone's guess what they're removing from the inevitable Wii U remodels. The SD card slot will probably be first to go, and I say this because the Wii U (at least as of this date) can't use the SD card slot for Wii U data. It exists purely for the original Wii OS to use.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
