To Burn Wii games or not to ? The Wii is increasing in popularity, and as such there is a huge demand for games. Even worse, games are expensive, so what happens if you scratch the disc or something? Read on to find out how to burn Wii games that you can use as a backup.
1 - A DVD burner.
2 - An empty disk to burn the backup files on.
3 - An original game from the Wii.
You need to make an image of the disc before you can burn Wii games, so in addition to the DVD drive, you will need to install some software called .net Framework 2.0, and Raw Dump 2.0
The first thing you need to do to burn Wii games is to put the game you want to burn inside your LG dvd drive. Click the button that says Start Dump, and you will soon be ready to burn Wii games. Once it's finished, you should see a new file in the rawdump folder, an ISO file, with the same name as whatever game you copied. You'll get familiar with these files if you intend to burn Wii games as a habit.
The last two parts of the process are probably the simplest thing you need to do when you burn Wii games. First of all, once the dump finishes, right click on the new file and choose Properties. ALL Wii game ISOs are 4.7 Gb in size, which is the same size as a blank DVD, so you can see that the image dump has picked up everything. Anything different from this and you will need to begin again, as it's not possible to burn Wii games if the ISOs are the wrong size!
Once you have the right size, all you need to do to perform the actual burning of the Wii games is to get your preferred burning software, start a new project, and instruct it to burn the ISO image onto a brand new blank DVD. This part can be a little finicky, and if you use low quality discs you'll find you have problems with unreadable games etc.
As you've seen, if you've an urge to burn Wii games, it can be done, but be aware of your own local laws and regulations.
