• Transferred data is permanently deleted from the Wii console. Once you have transferred data to the Wii U console, it cannot be transferred back to a Wii console.
• Software and save data that may already exist on an SD card from the source Wii console cannot be transferred directly. If you have data on the SD card, perform the following:
  • For save data, transfer it from the SD card to the source Wii console before performing the transfer.
  • For software, either transfer it back to the source Wii console before performing the transfer or redownload it after the transfer using the Wii Shop Channel on the target Wii U console's Wii Menu.

How Nintendo DRM trapped $4. Wii (updated)Well. I would finally be able to transfer the Virtual Console games I bought for the Wii over to my new Wii U.

Note

• Data cannot be transferred from your Wii U console to a Wii console.
• You may find our information on what can and cannot be transferred helpful.

The following video will give you a helpful overview of the system transfer process:

What you need

• Your Wii and Wii U console (at least one Wii Remote or Wii Remote Plus is required to control the two consoles)
• A SD or SDHC card with at least 512 MB of free space
• A broadband Internet connection (both systems must be connected to the Internet)
• A television
• The country settings on both consoles must match
• You must have a working Nintendo Network ID on the target Wii U

Complete these steps

Setup

1. Connect the Wii to a television.
2. Connect the Wii U to a television.
   • If you only have a single television, you will need to connect both systems to it.
   • If your television has both HDMI and Audio/Video inputs, then connect both systems to the television and switch inputs when appropriate. If your television only has Audio/Video inputs, then you will need to switch the AV Multi Out Plug on your Wii AV Cable or Wii Component Cable between consoles when appropriate.
3. Connect the Wii to a broadband Internet connection.
   • Ensure that your Wii has the most recent system update.
4. Connect the Wii U to a broadband Internet connection.
   • Ensure that your Wii U has the most recent system update.
5. Enter the Wii Shop Channel and download the Wii U Transfer Tool on the Wii console.
   • You can download the tool to the system memory or an SD card; however, if you download it to the SD card you will need to launch it from the SD card menu.
6. Download the Wii System Transfer tool on the Wii U console by clicking the transfer tool icon on the Wii Menu and following the on-screen instructions.
   • Although there is an icon on the Wii Menu for the Wii System Transfer tool, it is not the actual tool. Clicking it will redirect you to download the actual tool from the Wii Shop Channel. Once the download is complete, the actual tool will appear as a new channel on the Wii Menu.
   • You can download the tool to the system memory or an SD card; however, if you download it to the SD card, you will need to launch it from the SD card menu.
