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.
Because of this, we thought it would be a good idea to answer this question in a quick article. This way you can start copying Wii games on your own computer right at home.
Most of you have probably burned a CD or possibly even a DVD before. This type of burning software is automatically included with almost all computer systems now. However, it won’t make copies of your video games.
Why? Because video game discs have a form of protection that stops these programs from being able to make copies. When you insert the game discs in your computer your PC doesn’t know how to “read” them.
Fortunately, there are companies that have designed specialized software that will allow you to copy Wii games. This software uses technology that “knocks-out” the copyright protection used on the game discs and allows your computer to understand the disc.
How do you use it?
Thankfully, it’s not complicated whatsoever. You insert the game disc into your disc drive and your computer will make an “image” of the disc on your computers hard drive. Afterwards, you simply insert a blank disc and the software will burn this exact image onto it. You are then left with a perfect copy for you to use whenever you want.
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.
Being able to copy Wii games is a great way to make backup copies of any game you want. This way you are protected if you ever damage or lose a game of yours.
