How to Play Youtube Videos on Your Nintendo Wii

How to Play Youtube Videos on Your Nintendo Wii
Ok, here I am again. This instructable will teach you how to put youtube videos onto your Nintendo Wii by SD card. You may ask, "Why is this idiot telling us how to do this when I can browse Youtube through the Internet Channel on the Wii?"
I am telling you this because recently, Nintendo has decided to make you pay 500 Wii points(roughly five American Dollars) for the internet channel. Another reason is that you can show it on your friend's Wii, who may not have internet. You may also show it on other computers if they have an SD slot.
I hope you find this instructable useful.

Materials
For this instructable, you will need a computer with a SD card slot (more thin than a usb slot, but longer), an SD card (the larger it is, the longer the video you can put on, but one gig is good enough for most of the videos on youtube), and the video channel on your nintendo wii (that is a free channel you can get on Wii Shop. 1.1 is now available). Also, if your SD card is not already formatted for the wii, I think you format it to FAT 16 or FAT 32), and a Nintendo Wii (for you slower people out there).

The browser is now free and anyone who bought it for 500 points gets a NES game free.

not to offend, but i have had problems with anything RedKawa, and as well for what you pay for an SD Card, you can just download the browser. its worth it! and not just for youtube. and if anyone is wondering, the reason why certain sites wont play is because Adobe wont let nintendo use Flash above version 7 :S. Dont ask why but its a fact
