I'm confused....Can I download WiiWare/VC games onto my wii and then transfer them to an SD because I have very little room in my Wiis memory.This is the card I have:
http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-2GB-Digital-SD-Package/dp/B000EOMXM0
It has roughly 16,000 blocks. Wii blocks are 128K each.
Please note you cannot run games from the SD card. You have to copy them from the SD card back to main memory to play them. Also note you can delete and redownload your games from the Shop channel for free. So you don't need an SD card unless you are going to be away from a fast Internet connection.

You can copy things to the SD card but you cannot run them from the SD card. To run them you must make room to copy them back to the Wii's built-in memory. In other words, the SD card does NOT transparently extend the Wii's memory. It is secondary memory.
And, like I said, you can delete and redownload all VC and WiiWare games for free (to the same Wii you bought them on). So you don't need an SD card unless you will be away from your Internet connection (or you have a slow Internet connection).
