I'm sure they will 'do' something eventually, but we are still at the start of the Wii revolution!

I bet by the end of the year at Christmas there will be plenty of uses of the SD Card and the USB ports as that's when I think the Wii will become fully established.

It just needs more and more games to come out that utilise the SD Card for music.

Once this occurs (or even better, using the card for game music becomes standard for any new Wii game), you'll be laughing really

Excite Truck IS a main reason to get an SD Card. But I'm sure Ninty didn't release their versions of the SD Card for no reason.... I think they will definitely make much more use of the SD Card.

I normally use 7dayshop for Memory Cards... I recommend checking out their 1GB for £5 or 2GB for £10.

What size and brand/make of SD card are you using and what (if any) error message do you get?

[ThomasWii]

no error, ScanDisk, 512MB, MicroSD and Adapter.

Thats all it says

So what happens when you try and copy a game from your internal memory to your SD card?

Talk us through exactly what you are doing so we can see whats going wrong...

It could potentially be because you are using a micro SD card?

Have you got any other regular SD cards kicking around your house / flat / boat / caravan, that you could experiment with? I know that I have had issues with the micro format + adapter in a camera.....

With the adaptor that shouldn't have anything to do with it and I have searched the net and can not find anyone else with the same problem.

What it might be worth while doing is copying the contents of the SD card to your PC, formating the SD Card on the PC and then try and see if it is recognised on your Wii.

Its possible that your Wii may have a problem so a quick call to Nintendo may be in order.
