One thing people like about the Wii is that you can find other peoples' save files online, copy to SD card, and transfer to your console. This simple process has enabled many people to unlock special extras even if they gave up on the game long ago.

Fortunately for GameCube homebrew users, you can do this for 'Cube games too. With a program called MCBackup (Memory Card Backup), you can use .gci format game saves downloaded from GameFAQs or other sites on your console.

I used this awesome method to finally see the secret Green Hill Zone in Sonic Adventure 2 Battle that so very few people have ever seen.

You'll need a homebrew loader like the SD Media Launcher by Datel.

Sorry about the lack of audio...I reformatted my computer and I forgot to turn the volume on the Line In down before recording...it was way too loud to even recognize, so I deleted the sound.

  • I'll get one of those one day

  • @GodKill123 lol

  • @MrPrGustavo Not that I know of. It works fine for me with just the homebrew channel.

  • @ihatecolereynolds Now it doesn't let me go that close anymore. Is there an IOS, Patch, or MIOS I should install? Thanks again in advance

  • @ihatecolereynolds Thank you so much for your help but I'm still having issues.So here's the problem, I downloaded GCMM & I get the screen where it tells me what button to press & all but it doesn't load up my card as if it's not inserted. I go to Back-up & I keep getting"MemCard Error: CardMount - -3"No Savesd games to Backup!" I tried both A&B Slots. So I went to Homebrewchannel & I found NuGaSa which is discribed to do the same. it almost worked to the point where I saw my data, but it froze.

  • @MrPrGustavo AHH. HERE'S what you need. wiibrew *dot* org /wiki/ GCMM

  • @ihatecolereynolds This is close to what I'm lookin for, but does anyone know if it's possible to take save data and extract it from the gamecube memory card (using the wii) to SD card (In other words the opposite of what Gamecube Saver does which only installs save games to Memory cards). If anyone knows please help. I'm using my dolphin EMU and I want to continue where I left of. and the action replay keep freezing my games to the point that I can't save it.

  • Or you could just use wiibrew *dot* org /wiki/ Gamecube_Saver *Take away spaces

  • i have all of them but SD media launcher..what is it media launcher ? am i use my Wii for this ?
