question about the wii and virtual console games?
i had a white wii with 10 classic games on it that i bought from the nintendo store. i just got a new black wii and it's not letting me copy them to it/ is there anyway i can get them onto my new system? surely you can log in to an account or something to show that theyre mine...

I'm afraid the account is set in stone to the console it was set up on. there is no way to move them over. its one of the only things that nintendo got wrong and microsoft got right with moving accounts. it was initially to cut out piracy.

Sorry, but if you read the fine print (which nobody really reads completely nowadays)... it states that your WiiWare & VC title purchases are tied to the Wii that purchased it.
The DRM keys are tied to the Wii that purchased the games & those keys cannot be transferred to any other Wii, even if the game itself can be transferred via SD cards. You can try talking to Nintendo Customer Services about it, but they'll likely push the same information that I'm presenting. I know this isn't the information you want to hear, but it's the harsh truth that you'll have to live with.
