There’s no question that the Nintendo Wii has taken the video game industry by storm. It was nearly impossible to find one this past Christmas and the units continue to fly off the shelves. Recently, we have received a lot of emails from people wondering how they can copy Wii games right on their computer.
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.
Almost everyone has burned a music CD before. In fact, the burning software to make copies of music cds is included in almost all computers now. Unfortunately, this software will not work if you try to use it to copy Wii 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.
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.
So how does it work?
There’s nothing to it really. First, your computer will make am “image” of the game disc when you put it in your disc drive. You then insert a blank DVD-R or CD-R disc and the software will burn this image onto the disc. You now have a perfect 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.
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.
