I'm curious whether the saves are per game or the entire "Wii". Say on computer A I started Game 1 and on computer B I started Game 2. Now I want to continue playing Game 2 on computer A - can I transfer just the save for that game or would it end up over-writing Game 1's save?

Wii saves goes to <dolphin user folder>\Wii\title\00010000\<gameID>
<dolphin user folder> refer to your personal folder. Assuming that you're using 3.5-2143 or newer (and hadn't created the Dolphin reg keys or a portable.txt file next to Dolphin.exe), it'll be My Documents\Dolphin Emulator. If you've created a portable.txt file and put next to Dolphin.exe, it'll be <folder containing Dolphin.exe>\User. And if you've created the reg key, well, then you know what your folder is. Click here for more details. <gameID> isn't the same used by Dolphin, it's set by the game creators, but you can easily discover the ID by right-clicking the game in the Dolphin browser and then choosing "Open Wii Save Folder". For example, Just Dance 4 NTSC-U save is located at "Wii\title\00010000\534a5845", so, if you copy the folder 534a5845 to the other computer, you're copying your save for Just Dance 4 NTSC-U We have also the "Export Wii Save" option, but it doesn't work for some games...

Wow! Exporting saves that have subfolders works now? Nice!

That's pretty awesome guys! Thanks! It's great to know that it works that way! I'll obviously make backups before overwriting anything, but I'm excited! Sweet!
