  • *IMPORTANT* After completing the transfer, re-link the old Nintendo Network ID(s) that previously existed on the target console, then go to the eshop and download all the games that were purchased with those IDs. Do the same thing in Wii mode. Visit the Wii shop channel and download all the games that originally existed on the target console. Happy gaming. :)

    Quick reminder before transferring: All game save data on the "source" console/hard drive will be transferred successfully. All game save data on the "target" console/hard drive will be overwritten.

      +justjoined That brings up an important question I have.
      I will be purchasing a new Deluxe Wii U Set with Smash Bros. and Splatoon included in the bundle.
      When transferring from my old Basic Wii U, will the games on the new target system be deleted? I plan to use the NNID linked with the source console, so would I even be able to redownload them?
      (I just don't wanna lose games I just got. XD)

    • @justjoined
      @justjoined  8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      +HyperHunt621 You cannot use the same NNID on 2 consoles simultaneously. If you're worried about your pre-installed games being deleted, simply create a new NNID on the target console and then re-link it after the system transfer. That is just a cautionary measure though. Because your games come pre-installed you may not even have to associate them with an NNID. Ultimately you will be able to redownload your games from the eshop as a WORSE case scenario. It's just that if you want all your games associated with a single ID you'll have to call Nintendo and ask them if that is possible.

    • @HyperHunt621
      @HyperHunt621 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      justjoined Hmm, first off, thank you for a quick response. ;)
      But back on topic, I want to transfer my NNID (that comes from the source system) to the target system, and I only want to use that NNID--not two simultaneously--on the target system.
      And when it comes to the games stuff, I suppose I'll contact Nintendo for some clarification.
      Nevertheless, thanks for clearing some of this up!

    • @justjoined
      @justjoined  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Nocholas. If you go to the Wii shop channel, under “account activity” you can still download your old games. I just tested this with Super Metroid and it works in 2021. If I’m remembering correctly, I think Wii games were transferred through the sd card, but the shopping channel provides an extra layer of security in case you are worried.
      Also, keep in mind you will lose access to demos that were previously downloaded on your system. It is also possible that certain obscure games cannot be transferred, but I never had this problem. All the big Nintendo games work and I was even able to download an obscure baseball game that worked too.

  • @b.smothers6266
    @b.smothers6266 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Question (that I cannot find an answer to): what happens to the source console? I have read that "the source console will be formatted," but does this mean that the source console gets a factory reset? On the source console, after the reset, does the system act like it is new, or not? Does the source console start asking you questions about time zones, etc., like it is brand new, or does it act like a used system that has had its memory wiped? THANKS

    • @justjoined
      @justjoined  8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The source console gets factory reset so you will have to set everything up again like new. However, gamepads are somewhat independent in that they do not have a "master console". I remember pairing the source gamepad to my target console. I think the gamepad retains some basic memory because (if I remember correctly) I was still able to use it as a tv remote.

    So you have to set up your new wii u too right? Like they both have to be on at the same time. Then when I put the sd card in my new wii u it will erase the temporary name I put in and replace it with all my old info?

    • @justjoined
      @justjoined  9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The short answer to your questions is yes. Both systems have to be on at the same time. (see 0:31) Just to be clear, you don't need to create a Nintendo Network ID on your new Wii U system since your existing NNID(s) will be transferred, but you will need to do a few things first like pairing the gamepad to the new console and making sure it is online and updated before you can transfer anything. Any IDs you create on the new system will be temporarily deleted (un-linked) from that system (which you can re-link later) and replaced with the old ID from the source console. Hope that makes sense.

      Hi gia. You don't need 2 TVs. Only 1 television is required if you are setting up your console for the first time.

Unfortunately there was nothing on TV except a message telling me look at my gamepads.

      The system transfer will not merge DLCs from two consoles (I wish it did) but it does give you a license to redownload anything that was erased during the system transfer. This is what will happen. Everything on your Wii U B will be deleted. In order to retrieved your lost games and DLCs, they will need to be redownloaded separately on the eshop with same NNID that was used to purchase those games/dlc. (at no cost). Hope that answers your question.

      No problem. And yes, Wii mode games + save data will be transferred using the Wii U transfer tool. Additionally, Nintendo states that any funds leftover in Wii mode will also be transferred/merged to the Wii mode on your new system. A word of caution though, you may need to re-download certain titles in Wii mode (Nintendo's FAQ wasn't specific) and if those games aren't available on the Wii shopping channel at the time of transfer then you might lose them. So if you are worried about losing a specific game then check beforehand to see if it is available on the Wii shopping channel first. If you'd like a detailed list of Wii mode games I successfully transferred let me know.

    • @justjoined
      @justjoined  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Droid. Unfortunately, NNID accounts are directly tied to the systems they were originally created on, and the only way to transfer your games is to perform a system transfer between 2 functioning consoles. Meaning if your Wii U gets lost, stolen or breaks there’s no way to recover your games. In the past, you could send your broken Wii U directly to Nintendo and as long as you had the account name and password, your games could be restored. That would be the only way, however I doubt Nintendo still offers these services in 2023. It should be noted that if you have games on a hard drive or usb stick and that fails, you can still use the eshop to redownload those games. I hope you managed to download some good titles tonight before they closed the eshop.

      Hi AdkalsAlive. Unfortunately your NNID cannot be associated with multiple consoles at the same time. Since your NNID is tied to a broken Wii U, you must call Nintendo's 1-800 number and ask them to transfer your NNID to a new system. Hope that helps. Good luck.

    Say you have an 8GB Wii U that you want to Transfer to a 32GB Wii U but the 8GB Wii U has a SD card loaded with Wii Ware & VC games so how do you proceed if you have to put a SD card in the transferring 8GB Wii U? Like you’ll have to remove the 8GB Wii U’s current SD card that has all the Wii VC & Wii Ware games and replace with another SD card that’s part of the transfer process. Guessing that Nintendo knows what Wii VC & Wii Ware games are on the transferring Wii U so you’ll have to re-download them on the target Wii U? Fingers crossed this works for me lol

    • @AdamTheBlueYoshi

      Even though yes I haven’t transferred any data from my Wii U but I believe that all Wii and VC games will transfer as Wii menu data is transferred between the two systems although you will have to put the VC and Wiiware games onto the system memory in order to do this I think. Note it may not be the best explanation but I wanted to give you as much of a decent explanation on Wii Ware and VC.

    • @justjoined
      @justjoined  9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Your data is tied to your console. So if you were to trade your console for a new one, you would need both consoles present and updated with an sd card to perform the transfer. It is a bit cumbersome but perhaps an arrangement can be made with the vendor to transfer your data in store or at home. Several months ago Gamestop had a 100$ trade in offer for 3ds XL owners who were upgrading to the new 3ds XL. Some locations even allowed customers to do a system transfer in the store. Most people payed up front for the new handheld, brought it home, transferred their data and then returned to GameStop with their old units and the receipt to claim their 100$ back. Unfortunately until Nintendo changes its policies that is what must be done.

      Hi GilbertAndBowser, I'm sorry to hear about your gamepad. Unfortunately I don't think it's possible to perform a system transfer without a functioning gamepad because the transfer screen takes place on the gamepad(s) and not the television. At least this was the case when I performed my system transfer in 2014. You will have to call Nintendo (toll free) and ask them if they can grant you a license to transfer your content to another Wii U. This is the only way.

      Actually, bear with me because the answer is complicated. I performed 2 system transfers. First, I performed a regular Wii to Wii U system transfer around 2012. In that specific transfer, all of my playtime and messages were left behind on the original Wii system. However, I just noticed that I have playtime records from November 2012 on my Wind Waker Edition Wii U which was purchased a year later. Meaning that all my Wii play records and messages created on my source Wii U (2012 onwards) were indeed transferred to the target console during the “Wii U to Wii U” transfer.
