Transferring Data to an SD Card
If the Wii System Memory is full, you can save data to an SD Card (see page 28 for details of SD Card
compatibility with the Wii console).
For more information on using SD Cards in the Wii console, see page 34 in the Wii Operations Manual –
System Setup.
1. If you get a message appearing on-screen saying that there is no more
room for additional Wii Message Board data, insert an SD Card into the SD
Card slot on the front of the Wii console.
If there is already an SD Card in the SD Card slot when you run out of
space in the Wii System Memory, you will be asked if you want to save to
the SD Card.
2. Confirm that you want to save data to the SD Card.
3. A set number of messages will be saved to the SD Card, starting with the oldest messages.
CAUTION: Do not remove the SD Card, press the RESET Button or turn the power off (Standby Mode)
while transferring data. This can damage the data or the SD Card.
NOTE: If you do not insert an SD Card after the memory-full message, the oldest messages will be
deleted automatically.
