If any you find information stating that the wii reads directly from the sd card when playing music then I take back my words but, I have tried and I have not found a site that says that it reads directly form the card instead of copyng to the wii first and then playing.

 

Here's proof:  You'd require large amounts of storage space on your Wii everytime you played back an audio file in Excite truck.  You don't require any extra space so you are wrong on this and SSBB ;)  SSBB will read directly from the card when you want to play a level on the card.  It doesn't copy it to local flash first.  It goes from the SD card directly to ram.  Until you can prove to me that I'm wrong then I'll stick to my own conclusion.

 

I could be wrong, but I don't think that you're arguing against the same point ...

From a user's perspective if a game copies a file from the SD card into a memory cache before playing it the game seems to use the file directly from the SD card, from a technical perspective there is a copying from the SD card onto the system. Personally, I suspect that they would copy the file from the SD card into memory regardless of whether it was possible to play directly from SD cards because they can not be certain of the quality/speed of the SD card a person uses in their Wii ...
