Learn How You Can Copy Wii Games on A Computer

By Sam Lockwood

One of the most unique methods of game play can be found in the Nintendo Wii. So, it isn't surprising that gamers want to copy these programs to provide a backup of the original just in case something happens to the original.

Although you might think from the way the Wii discs look that you can copy them in the same way you copy regular CDs, you can't. This article outlines how you can copy Wii games and also outlines when you should not copy them.

Burning software like Roxio and Nero cannot successfully copy Wii software because of the way the Wii discs are encoded.

As was the case with someone copying other programs, someone eventually came up with a way to copy Wii discs.

After installing software that will copy the Wii discs, it is easy to make copies of these discs because with the software the computer understands what is on the Wii discs. This is true also when you install software to copy discs from other systems like PS3 and Xbox 360.

In some cases, you can use the same copying software you use to copy Wii, 360, and PS3 discs for copying encrypted PC games. This is a good thing about having universal software, so that you don't need to repeatedly spend money for duplication software.

The first steep is installing the correct program to help you break the encryption code. Next, you need to copy the underlying data from your game as a disk image. Lastly, you must put a blank DVD into the drive and tell the program to burn the copied image into the DVD disc.

In many cases burning and copying functions are found within many decryption programs. This means that you will never need to use regular disc burners. As a result, you are playing it safe and reducing the chance of an error resulting when ripping the disc.

New copying programs have just been made available on the market that allow gamers to make copies of their favorite Wii games. Copying Wii games is extremely simple and allows you to make backup copies of your favorite Wii games. Having a backup copy of your favorite games is a great idea because it will ensure that you will always have a copy of it! - 15634
