Nice, I didn't know this existed, hehe.
But still it's limited to 32GB so it solves nothing.

It's old tech, so who knows what it really supports. Don't forget Ninty used to say the same about the Wii!
(Limited by the SDHC specification to maximum 32GB)
Pointless, since the only reason to hook up an USB drive is size.
For crying out loud people! I can read!
1) I did say, "something like"
2) It *might* be able to handle more! Who knows, until it's bought! You can't always go by what it says on the box with old tech! The PSP was never tagged for being able to have 256GB, but it can be done!
You got a point. Might get one and try it out, but it might be more fun to just solder my own.
it will read any USB flash drive with a capacity of 32GB or less

it really wouldnt take much to make whats needed add some kind of patent and make a killing off the scene
Seriously, a working USB to SD-Adapter could theoratically work miracles. Everybody's talking about transfer-speed, though to me it doesn't seem to be the real issue. I read in another thread, that transfer speed on the SD-Port is limited to about 25 MB/s. This is why super fast SD-Cards don't load much faster than standard ones. I also read that the WiiU's drive only reads with about 60 MB/s or so. If that's correct, all the games should "only" take about twice the time loading. But as we all know, many games take much more time, especially those who consist of lots of small files. So the real problem is the internal data allocation of the SD-Card, the step BEFORE the actual data-transfer. A USB-HDD would provide a much faster internal file access, even though the following transfer is limited by the speed of the SD-Port.
The benefit could be that games, which have 10 times longer loading time could speed up to only needing twice the time to load compared to the disc.

@Veho, Sounds and smells like bullshit. They don't give you cancer, and California should know that. I don't get why they stick labels that say "may or may not cause reproductive harm or cancer". -

I mean if a company could use AI to do the work of a home conversion for essentially free why not? The rights for some games are completely lost though
