The '''Wii + Internet Channel''' is the only pre-installed channel that takes up spare internal memory, and the only channel that can be manually deleted or moved to an SD Card by the user. The channel takes up 1,180 blocks of memory, which is over half the Wii's internal memory space. The large size of this channel is likely due to the fact it is available in multiple languages; three videos in the U.S. versions, and six videos in the PAL versions. Upon connecting to the Internet and running the channel, the user will be asked if they would like to delete it. It cannot be re-downloaded or restored upon deletion.  [https://web.archive.org/web/20101122214542/http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/wii/en_na/channelsWiiInternetVideo.jsp]
