I've been looking for a 2GB SD card but there's no knowing whether it works with the Wii or not and I'm definately not chipping out £60 for an official one. Basically just post what SD card you have (Brand, model, capacity) and whether it works or not. A link would also be helpful. I'll start off...

2GB Play.com, works fine.

 

If they work in a PC, it's 99% likely it will work in the Wii (with the first update).

all SD cards work because they conform to a standard (unless its a fake from ebay)

 

Every one up to 2Gb. If you go higher, forget it - Wii's not capable. SD cards are a worldwide standard, so any will be alright.

No it doesn't. Just like most Digital Cameras, Camcorders, MP3 SD Players, etc.

If they're above 2Gb, they're not standard right now. Check the wikipedia explaination of the system, wich is entirely 'switch' based, wich means it's limit is at 2Gb. After tha it's using two layers, and that's what the Wii isn't capable of reading.

What to avoid:

 

- High Capacity (over 2GB)

- High Speed

So does anyone know if Sandisk Extreme III 2GB SD cards work ok with the Wii?

Well I must say nintendo should of let you use any size SD card.

 

They let you use any size SD card that meets the industry standard...

I understand that

 

the SD standard was for upto 2gb

 

SDHC is the standard for over 2gb

 

SD cards over 2gb arent standard and will have poor compatibilty

 

I want ninty to release a USB card reader for all cards

Well I use a 4Gb card that I imported to work with my kodak camera, works a treat shame it doesn't work with the wii though.

I love the way SD cards are so cheap how £10-£20

 

I reckon in a year or two we may have games delivered on memory cards. That would open up all sorts of possibilities for games. Can only think of championship manage right now or karaoke.., actually thats a crap idea.

get the smallest one you can find

 

i have a 16 mb for wii saves and it works fine

 

i don't recomend a san disk because there ever so slightly thicker that the rest and hard to get out of the wii though they do work just fine
