How To Copy Wii Games Using Your Computer And Burner

With the Nintendo Wii becoming so popular so quickly, we seem to be getting quite a few emails from people wondering if there is a way to copy Wii games on their computer. I thought it would be a good idea to go over how you can make exact backup copies of Wii games using the burner on your computer.

As you might already know you can't just use the same software you use to burn cds if you are trying to make a copy of a video game. Programs like Nero or Roxio are not able to copy Wii games.

How come?

All video game discs are equipped with a type of protection that prevents your computer from being able to produce copies. The companies that make video games have developed these "copyright guards" so that your computer can't recognize the discs - this prevents it from being able to make a copy.

With this problem in mind, certain software companies set out to solve this issue by developing a program that is able to bypass these protections and allow your computer to read Wii games. By using this specialized software, all of a sudden video game discs "make sense" to your PC.

These game-copying programs aren't only for Wii games. You can also use them to copy PS3, xbox 360 or any other video game that is on a disc.

We included a link at the end of this article that you can use to get a free trial of the most popular Nintendo Wii game copying software.

Once it's installed on your computer it's extremely easy to use. You insert the original Wii game you want copied and let your computer produce an "image" of the disc on it's hard drive. You then put in a blank disc and the computer will transfer the image onto it - this gives you a perfect copy.

It's a great feeling to be able to copy Wii games using your computer and your burner. This gives you a way to backup all of your existing games and make copie of any other Wii game you pick up. Enjoy!
