Wii Speak Transferrable? With Strings Attached

So you can transfer your Wii Speak, says UK Nintendo representative, but with a bit of red tape.

As we reported, along with a slew of reputable news services, the Wii Speak (as written in the manual) cannot be transferred from Wii to Wii. As thoughtful articles were written about Nintendo's new war on used games, a Nintendo UK representative spoke to Eurogamer:

"Nintendo can confirm that when consumers purchase the Wii Speak accessory, they are provided with a Wii Download Ticket with a unique number. The ticket, which can be redeemed via the Wii Shop Channel, will enable the user to download the Wii Speak Channel free of charge to a single Wii console."

"Any consumer who may have misplaced their Wii Download Ticket number for the Wii Speak Channel or require a new number following a Wii exchange may contact their local Nintendo Customer Services department, where they can request a replacement Wii Download Ticket number."

Of course this is what they say and then there's what the manual says. It remains a bit early to call this matter "cleared up."
