Just to be safe make a copy of the folders that you have the NMMs and your individual raw format saves from your real memory card they should be in 2 main folders you can call them GC Raws and the other From Nintendont You should have a raw file for every NMM save so now you can go to Dolphin and select tools and open up memory card manager. So you should have 1 Raw File per Save game you want to transfer, make sure the raw files each have a separate folder with their corresponding names so you don’t get them mixed up as you don’t want to rename the raw format files themselves. Startup each game you have backed up and make a simple startup save file so that you can edit it in Dolphin later don’t worry about actually playing the games just make a memory slot on the NMM for each game you want to transfer a save to. While you are on Nintendont going into options and enable the NMM and remove your real GameCube memory cards just so you don’t get mixed up Right so you will need to take notes once you have backups of all your GameCube Games and you can load them on Nintendont it will show The name of the Game along with a Title Key so it would look like Fake name example GTLZ ignore the other letters/numbers that come after the first 4 letters/numbers of the small code this will make it much easier to identify each game in the final part make sure you don’t get Os and 0s mixed up. You can’t copy the whole memory card it won’t identify with Nintendont if you can even get that far. Ok so if you want to transfer your Real GameCube Memory Card saves to the NMM virtual memory card it requires you to make a single save file on a small memory card so that it only rips the raw file for that one game and takes up minimal space on the SD Card. I would recommend around 48GB for Gamecube at Max and Dolphin Emulator for the Memory Card Manager. Patience and alot of repeating the same process for each game.Īny kind of PC that can store enough space to hold your game backups and various apps for this to be transferred to the SD Card.
Both will need to be plugged into a Wii or GameCube so you can copy individual saves to the smaller memory card.Īn SD Card I would probably recommend around 20GB-32GB unless you have a stupidly expansive collection you want to backup and play anywhere. You can only use the internal SD Card Reader slot in the Wii/Wii U if you want to use it between Wii and Wii U unless you don’t use external storage for both you can probably use an USB SD Card Reader.Ģ Gamecube Memory Cards 1 being the lowest memory possible because you will be copying this card every time. I will break down the process, it will require these things this is based off a few guides I read I just tried to make it more detailed and simpler to understand.Īn original Nintendo Wii with Homebrew GCMM app and Nintendont app
Ok so this was a major pain but I finally got my original GameCube saves to work on Nintendont on Wii U and just the NMM.
