Yeah, same thing happened here. From what I've read, the 1019s go bad on Wiis but not on Gamecubes. It's got something to do with a hot element inside the Wii being right next to the memory card ports, and the smaller writing blocks inside the 1019 can't take the heat as well.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
