I searched the forums and couldn't find anything, so here it goes...
I got a 2gig sd card for the wii, but I can't load or save any games directly to it from in the game... I have to go into settings, and Copy files. Help?
unfortunately, that's how it works right now... it sucks doesn't it? sd cards should be like a memory expansion, but as it is now, it gives the feeling that it's just a backup...
hopefully, the nintendo will do something about it in the future =P

By doing something about it I hope it doesn't mean my SD was a waste of £20 it better be an upgrade to allow games to load form SD cards otherwise it will be a joke.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm hoping for

The el cheapo "Standard Speed" SD Card I just bought, worked perfectly. The High Speed (166x) SD Card was the problem. Seems the Wii is not capable of working with the High Speed SD Cards. No One mentions this in any literature or forum that I've found.
Also worth noting: If you have an older gamecube game and wish to save your place in that game you must also have a Gamecube Memory Card. It will not save to the SD Card....and is not clearly explained that way in the manual.
