I ended up using my mini SD 1gb card from my cell phone (with an SD adapter of course) and it works great! Mainly to play music in Excite Truck and play around with pictures in the editor software, turning pictures into puzzles is pretty neat if you wanna kill a little bit of time.

I am wondering if the speed of the card makes any difference fot the Wii..???

I am getting a 1GB card for my camera, and want one that is fast because it will cut down on lag time for the camera.

I'm hoping were going to see an external hard drive sometime, the SD cards are nice, but about say next year, you'll hopefully have a lot of games, news channels, many Mii's, VC games, I don't want to have to keep buying 2.0gb cards at a time, and epsically with if there is a demo service, that limit will just keep quickly been filed.

Thanks, Tacos. I just bought that one off of newegg about 10 minutes ago, hope it works! I read some reviews. One person said works great with my camera and my Nintendo Wii! So should be good to go.

Yeah I would love to see some internal or external hard drives available for this, I was hoping it'd have a built in hard drive.

Hope it lasts for you, I read reviews on low-priced SD cards off newegg aying that some only lasted about 1-3 weeks for them. I guess you can send in for a new one, but you may lose your information saved on the card. Good luck bro.


Just bought this, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820163158

No, Bahb, I'm pretty sure you are right. I think it is pretty much, you get what you pay for. This guy probably hasn't had his for that long. It's like people saying that all batteries are the same.

"Dude, you are so stupid for buying those expensivo AA batteries, I got mine for $.99 at www.cheapchincystuff.com"

For the most part, you get what you pay for.

I'm using a 2GB Polariod SD memory. It works great. They have quite a few 4GB non SDHC memory, a few examples are from here.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...4gb+sd&Ntk=all
All are SD except the SanDisk. The Wii only supports up to 2GB, but if you have tried a 4GB one, let us know.

Wii does support SD's over 2GB as long as they are non-SDHC which is not very many of them.
