The Wii to Wii U transfer process will be ready to go on day-one.

Here’s how the process works:

– Like the DS/3DS transfer
– Insert an SD card into the Wii U to initiate the process
– Use the Wii System Transfer app
– Once the process has been started, insert the same SD card into the Wii and download another transfer app from the Wii Shop Channel
– This app moves data over to the card
– Then need to put the card back into the Wii U
– Wii data will then be moved to the console and deleted from the card

You’ll be able to bring over the following content from the Wii:

– Wii Software save data
– WiiWare and save data
– Virtual Console titles and save data
– Add-on content
– Wii Points
– Wii Shop Channel activity
– Mii characters

I do not own an HDTV. I know, I’m behind on the times and all that, but I haven’t seen a need to get one just yet! One thing that concerned me though was that Wii U only came with an HDMI cable, which I (for obvious reasons) had no use for. My fears can be put to rest it seems, because while watching IGN’s Wii U un-boxing video I noticed that the back of the console appears to use the same RCA output jack as the Wii. Take a look:

You may also note that the power jacks look very similar as well, but further inspection reveals that they are actually flipped from each other, meaning (understandably) one could not swap their power cables between the two consoles. The sensor bar input jack is– predictably– also the same as well.

If you’re one of the few consumers thinking about purchasing a Wii rather than a Wii U this holiday season, then you should be aware of an upcoming deal.

Sam’s Club will be offering a slight discount on the old console during Black Friday. The Wii will be available for just $89.99.
