How to Copy Save Data to an SD Card
Wii & Wii mini
In this article, you'll learn how to copy save data from the Wii console to an SD Card.
Note
- Some developers may choose to block the transfer of save files to an SD Card for specific games. Additionally, some games may only transfer partial save data.
- Virtual Console games have two types of save data: suspend data (the console remembers where you were and pauses you there) and save files. The suspend data will not be copied to the SD card. If a game does not have another form of save data, the save file cannot be copied.
- Because the save file for each game will always have the same name, it's not possible to have multiple save files for one game stored on an SD Card.
- The Wii mini does not support the use of an SD Card.
Complete these steps
- Insert a compatible SD Card into the SD Card slot on the front of the Wii console.
- Access the Wii Data Management screen.
- Select Save Data, then select Wii.
- Select the file you wish to copy, then select Copy.
- Select Yes to copy the data to the SD Card.
