Couple of questions about the Wii

Only had my Wii since last Friday so there's a couple of things I'm unsure about.

How can I transfer game saves from one Wii to another? (For example, if I want to take a game to my parent's and play it, as they have a Wii, but I don't want to start over.)

What is the deal with Friend Codes? Are they different for every game or is there one code per Wii?

SD Card. Unless the save has copy protection.

Older games require Friend Codes that are different from your Wii Friend Code. Newer games should be able to use the Wii's code. Check the manual.

Saves have copy protection? Sweet jesus, are you kidding me?

Up to the developers. Some do, some don't. It's mostly done so that people don't try to hack the saves through their PCs.

Will a standard SD card work? Any brand recommendations?

Yes, a standard SD Card will work.

SanDisk, Kingston, the usual. They're all pretty much the same. It's when you start getting into SDHC cards that you might to compare.
