with a broadband Internet connection.

Wii console or select the Others option to

Exchanging Messages or Data with WiiConnect24

• If both parties are Wii users, you

must register each other as Wii

Friends to exchange messages

or data.

• If one party is a Wii user and the

other is a PC or cell–phone user,

a registration e-mail will be sent

to the PC/cell–phone user during

the Wii Friend registration

process. The PC/cell phone user

will need to respond and accept

in order to complete the registration.

NOTE: You will not be able to send photos from your Wii console to the PC/cell

phone user.

Editing or Deleting Wii Friends

1. Move the cursor over the Wii Friend

nickname in the Address Book and press

the A Button.

2. Select from Change Nickname or Erase.

NOTE: If you erase a Wii Friend entry, it

will be permanently deleted from your

Address Book.

Viewing Your Wii Number

The Wii Number is a 16 digit number

assigned to each Wii console. By

exchanging Wii Numbers with other

Wii users, you can register your Wii

system to a Wii Friend.

1. Select Address Book from the

Create Message screen.

2. Your console’s Wii number will be

displayed.

Canceling Wii Channel Message Service

An option to “opt-out” or stop delivery

may appear for some messages sent to

you from certain Wii Channels. You can

stop the delivery of these messages by

selecting this icon and choosing

one of two settings:

1. Choose “This message service” to

stop messages from this Channel

only.

2. Choose “All message services” to

stop messages from all Channels.

When you download a new channel, you will have the same opportunity as

described above to decide whether or not to receive messages from

channels.

NOTE: You will still receive messages from your Wii friends.

Transferring Data to an SD Card

If the Wii System Memory is full, you can save data to an SD Card. For more

information on using SD Cards in the Wii console, see pages 22 and 66.

1. If you get a message on the Wii

console that there is no more room

for additional Message Board data,

insert an SD Card into the SD Card

Slot on the front of the Wii console.

If there is already an SD Card in the

SD Card Slot when you run out of

space in the console memory, you

will be asked if you want to save to

the SD Card.

2. Confirm that you want to save data to the SD Card.

3. A set number of messages will be saved to the SD Card, starting with the

oldest messages.

CAUTION: Do not remove the SD Card or turn the power off while transferring

data. This can damage the data or the SD Card.

4. If you do not insert an SD Card after the memory–full message, the oldest

messages will be deleted automatically.
