 sandisk for wii April 29, 2009
D. Walton-blanchard (Western Mass)
My 12 year old bought this to help with his games. Neither of us could get it to work even after going through several sets of instructions. Don't feel I can rate the product fairly, though the instructions are quite poorly written
 Hey Nintendo, thanks for ripping us off some more! December 12, 2008

As if paying $250-$300 for your Wii system, $20 for an extra Nunchuk, $35 for an extra Wii remote, and a good $30-$50 for a new game isn't bad enough, now Nintendo wants to rip off the uninformed some more and charge you $15 or $20 for an official Wii 2 GB SD card. I love Nintendo as much as the next gamer, but really, this is a bit ridiculous. Why pay a minimum of fifteen dollars for one of these things when you can buy a regular 2 GB SD card that will cost you somewhere between six and eight dollars and will work and function exactly the same? Just because this card says "Wii" on the front and is white instead of your traditional blue doesn't make it any better. Nintendo's just out to make a few more bucks with this thing. If you're thinking of getting one of these cards, do yourself a favor: skip over this one and buy a standard SD card instead. It'll work just as well, and will cost you half as much.
Other SD Cards are cheaper December 6, 2008

Hey everyone. I just bought the Wii and read somewhere that you HAVE to use a Wii SD Card. So I was kinda ticked off about it consider how much they are.
I recently bought a 2gig SD Kingston memory card for $2 online and I tried it out in the Wii.
It works fine. You do not need to buy the Wii SD Card. Your just paying for the name. Any SD Card is fine.
You can pick them up pretty much anywhere for really cheap. Especially right now due to the Holiday sales.
I just wanted to share my results.
Good luck gaming!

 A Nice Memory Card For Back-Up But No True Use For Anything Else September 24, 2008
Rich (CA)

I got this because like so many other people I thought this would help a lot with my virtual games and save games as well. It does clean up a lot of the clutter on the Wii if you're not playing a certain game and want to remove the data from your Wii's memory but don't want to take a a chance and lose any data when you do erase it from the Wii's memory. Also like a few reviewers have said you cant move saved game data from the gamecube memory cards to the Wii's SD card nor can you load saved game data directly from it if your playing a game which is a little inconvenient. But the one good thing is the space on the memory card means you'll probably only have to buy one for a pretty long time before having to get another one and yes even though price is pretty step for this card. One other thing though if you go for the regular Sandisk memory card you cannot get the Sandisk HC card one these cards will not work on the Wii console I had a friend who bought one to try it out and found out this way. So all I can say for this item is if you're looking to make more room on your Wii console memory this card is a good backup to use...
The Whole Scoop on SD cards for the Wii May 13, 2008

I'm writing this review to clear up any confusion regarding SD cards for the Nintendo Wii:
1. Any brand of SD card will work in the Wii; more reliable brands like Sandisk will also be more reliable in the Wii.
2. There is absolutely NO DIFFERENCE between this card and a standard SD card from Sandisk, except for price. The only reason you should buy this over a standard 2 GB card is if you're willing to pay about five times more for the "Wii" label (2 GB Sandisk cards are about $6 on Amazon as of this writing).
3. The Wii can support up to 8 GB cards, so go buy an 8 GB card for this same price if you want to spend this much. If SD cards that hold more than 8 GB are ever sold, the Wii will not support them unless Nintendo updates its firmware to do so.
4. IMPORTANT: Although it seems like a great idea to have a huge memory card to hold Virtual Console games, WiiWare, and save files, these types of files CANNOT be used directly from SD card storage in the Wii. They must be in the Wii system memory to be played, and Virtual Console and WiiWare games can be re-downloaded at any time, so a large SD card will not be particularly useful for this type of data. What an SD card will be useful for is moving save files from Wii to Wii, storing music and photos that can be accessed by the Wii, and storing special types of data that certain games(Like Super Smash Brothers) will allow you to store on an SD card rather than system memory. Unless Nintendo updates the Wii firmware to allow for save file and Virtual Console/WiiWare gameplay straight from the card, a large SD card won't be very useful.
I hope this helped some of you. Now go buy a regular SD card for cheap!
