    Hardware What is the largest SD card the Wii can use?

    I formatted my Samsung EVO 128 to FAT32 and transferred my SD card contents to it, working with no problems in the SD slot. Formatting may not have been necessary, but you never know with exFAT compatibility.

    Hardware Nintendont - do I even need actual memory cards?

    Yeah, it's looking like I really don't need to keep the actual memory cards on hand after all. Plus I may want to play import titles and those don't save too well to cards with US saves on them.

    Hardware Nintendont - do I even need actual memory cards?

    The only memcard options I see under Nintendont settings are "emulation on/off" "card size 59/251/1019" and "multi on/off". I would assume turning emulation off defaults to the actual card slots?

    Hardware Nintendont - do I even need actual memory cards?

    Despite having a memory card loaded in slot A, I couldn't find my Metroid Prime 2 save file on it. Turns out that Nintendont was set to emulate the memory card and is saving to the SD card directly. I also can't move that save to the memory card, apparently. I have a 59 and a pair of 251s on...

    Hardware What is the largest SD card the Wii can use?

    probably because it's Nintendo, a company notorious for anti-consumer policies like that. Then again, when the Wii came out even the 32GB cards were probably not too common(they were still on 2GB cards at release, of all things) and they never bothered to adjust settings in the firmware. By the...

    Hardware What is the largest SD card the Wii can use?

    Well, just loading GC games from SD, the Samsung EVO cards are pretty speedy, so probably working the maximum speed the slot can, and they don't seem to take much time to load through Nintendont. So far I've had no problems playing Metroid Prime 2, loading is as fats as it would be on an actual...

    Hardware What is the largest SD card the Wii can use?

    I obtained a 128GB Samsung EVO which I'll use via USB adapter for the Wii games. I do have a spare 64GB EVO+ which I may use in the SD slot for the homebrew + Gamecube, if it can read a 32GB EVO it'll hopefully read that.

    Hardware What is the largest SD card the Wii can use?

    I'm surprised the SD slot can read 64GB or greater, Nintendo's official statement is 32GB max with updated firmware. For that matter, if it can read SDXC natively that's a miracle, since some devices need those cards formatted FAT to work. I bought a Samsung EVO 32GB SD card yesterday and...
