How To Copy Wii Games - The Easy Way To Copy Wii Games
By Scott Frayburn | November 2, 2008
With the Nintendo Wii constantly selling out across the country, we have found ourselves getting more and more emails from people asking if it is possible to copy Wii games using their cd/dvd burner.
It's a good question and one that we thought we would answer in this brief article. We want to show you exactly how to copy Wii games directly from your home computer.
Nowadays, almost everyone has used the computer to burn a CD at some point. There are many different CD burning programs that let you do this; in fact most computers come pre-loaded with some type of burning software. However, this software will not make copies of your Wii games.
The reason for this is that video game discs have "copyright protection" guards on them that prevent these programs from being able to read the discs. When you insert the disc into your computer, it doesn't "make sense" to your PC.
Have no fear though! There are companies that have developed specific game-copying software that will let you copy Wii games. The software uses a special technology that is able to bypass the copyright protection and allows your copmuter to "make sense" of the disc.
How do you use it?
It's incredibly simple. First, you insert the game disc and wait while the program makes an "image" of the disc on your hard drive. Next, you insert a blank disc that your computer will burn this image onto. When it is finished, you are left with an exact copy of the game.
When you have this software on your computer, you can copy Wii games, XBOX 360 game, PS3 games - any type of game disc for that matter. It's nice to have a program that does it all if you do have more than one game system at home.
Once you get in the habit of copying Wii games it's a good idea to make a copy of any game you have. This way you don't have to worry about losing or damaging the original game disc. Your backup copies will work just like the originals and can be made directly from your own computer. All the best!
