man i'm glad we have Newegg!

Has anyone looked at the "Wii" version of SD cards being sold in EB/Gamestop?

http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product_id=802515 - 60 bucks for a 1 gig card.

http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product_id=802583 - and 100 bucks for a 2 gig stick!

thats friggin INSANE.

on newegg....

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820180610 - 26 bucks for a 1 gig stick.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820180627 - 60 bucks for a 2 gig stick.


and i'm SURE newegg, or a few other online sites will have even BETTER deals going on for SD cards that we can use for the wii.

arg, i can't belive their charging 100 bucks for a 2 gig stick! i REALLY feel sorry for the people who buy one of those things.


ps. This was just a post, letting anyone who hasn't checked prices, that there are MUCH better deals online, than in the stores. and that you should check out a few other places before dropping 100 bucks for a SD card. Just giving you guys a heads up. Because i realize that not everyone here is always up-to-date on prices of stuff.

Thats funny, its nothing more than a regular sd card. Maybe with some lock that doesn't let regular sd cards work in the wii.

No, Nintendo stated regular SD cards will work fine, you're just paying more for branding.

lol, branding.

Any type of SD chip works in a Wii, and if you have an adapter, even the mini and the... really damn small ones work just fine.

But you better get a large, and fast SD chip if you want to do alot with it. I.E. Entire games and full length movies.

oh then that is just stupid. Reminds me of CD-Rs being branded as audio CD-Rs and costing double.
