Learn to Backup Wii Games

If you got to read this article, it probably means that you have a Nintendo Wii console. And it is very probable that you are reading this article because you want to know how to backup your Wii games.

A good reason to do that would be to preserve the original disk and play using the backups. In this way you can safely put away the originals. This article will give you some clues on how to backup your Wii games.

First of all, you need to have the Nintendo Wii game software. This software will read the game from the original disk and then transfer it into an ISO format. Normally, this is in DVD format but sometimes a backup can go on a CD too.

The next thing you have to do is to put the Wii game into the DVD drive and let it be read. After the Wii disk is inserted you will have to launch the software. It will then transfer the data on your PC. The transfer speed depends on the speed of your CPU and the memory of your PC. For slower PC's, this procedure can take up to 4 hours.

While the file is copied, the PC may appear frozen. Don't worry about that and do not shut down the software or the PC. If you do that, you will need to start the process again. When the transfer is done, you will have an ISO file on the PC.

After the files have been transferred on the PC, you can do the next step.

You have to change the software setting so that it can read the ISO file and then burn it on the blank media. After changing the setting, you need to insert the blank disk and start again the software. The burning process shouldn't take long. It depends on the CPU speed and the memory on your PC.
