Wii Storage? [solved]

Alright, I have a Wii and I have a 4GB Card in it. I've been playing a host of games and have a host of saves, miis, etc. Of course, I just realized the Wii only recognizes up to 2GB. I have a 2GB card and I can put the 4GB one in my camera, but I don't want to lose my saves and whatnot. My question is are the saves on the card? Or are they on some sort of internal Wii storage?

    When you turn on the system, take a trip to the Wii menu. Instead of selecting "Settings" (on the right), go to "Data Management" (on the left). At the top you'll see two tabs. Whichever tab you have selected will be displaying everything on that unit. You will have to swap things from the 4GB card to the Wii, and then from the Wii to the 2GB card. This may take several trips. Don't delete anything until the old card is out of the system and you verify you still have all your things.
