For the people doesn´t know about SD cards. Nintendo Wii support any sd card but only with 9pin, also support sdhd card 4gb. Support Micro SD with the adapter. Up to 32gb. I have one sdhd of 4gb on my wii and work find to save games and wii channel. Inside the Wii you will found another sd with 512mb. So you can upgrade and put a sd card 2gb scandisk. Beware if you broken your wii, nintendo can´t pay any damage.

What on Earth is this guy talking about, I can understand a single sentence.

First off, Ninty is likely to release a follow up firmware update to 4.0u/e, because not all or very little SDHC cards are compatible right now.

Second, no one wants to open their Wii to upgrade the internal memory which by the way is NOT an internal SD card when Channels and VC/WiiWare games are tranferable and playable via SD/SDHC with 4.0u/e.

Now, for those familiar with Wii HomeBrew the Wii uses 512mb of Samsung Nand flash for internal memory chips if they were to use SD for internal memory we would see many dead Wii's 5 years from purchase because SD only has so many read/write cycles. So don't go opening up you Wii in search for an internal 512mb SD card, you will void warranty and might wound with a broken Wii.

So please stop posting bogus replies to a simple question in the forums.

Should be ok as long as your Wii has the latest system upgrade.
