Just what I was thinking. Storage is SD card based. Apart from that I don't understand you question.

Are you looking for something to get the Wii hooked up to the net? Is that what you mean? Like Nintendo's Wi-fi usb adapter? Because that's all I can assume from that...

Wii comes with a wireless card to connect to a wireless router, if that's what you're after.

forgive me if I piss anyone off,what I mean to say is,a mate was telling me how he could download retro games onto his console,I was curious as to what accessory I would need to enable this option,sorry if I have wasted anyones time with my engrish

annirowe says:

Aha! You need either a wireless router or the Nintendo WiFi USB Key.

Then you use the Shop Channel and some hard earned cash and buy the games which then download onto the wii. You will also need a classic controller (sold Seperately) or a gamecube controller.

You haven't annoyed anyone Scontt, we were just confused! A Wi-fi USB connector www.mywii.com.au/ or a wireless router will do the job.

LOL well thats not at all what i thought you meant.

All you need is wii points from a store or a credit card at the time of purchase. You simply log into your wii's shop channel and using these points or credit card download the games. You may need either a classic controller, cube controller and wiimote to play any of them

Your wii also needs to be conencted to the net via a router or nintendo Lan thingy.

I guess lets start with the basic questions and see how far you get through:
1. Do you have a Wii?
2. Do you have broadband Internet?
3. Do you have Wireless Internet (either by a wireless router or a Nintendo USB WIFI Adapter?

If you answer yes to all of them then you are on the right track. if you answer no then you need to correct that issue first.
