Backup Wii DVDs and CDs

[mikep56]

Hi All,
I bought my nephews, aged 5 and 7, a Wii for Christmas. 3 months later and already some of the games are showing wear.
Is there a method to back up the games?
Regards,
Mike

Hi!

It seems to be a little complicated to make a backup of Wii games, but I found these guides:

Basically you have to buy a new LG DVD drive before you can do anything.

Good luck

You dont need to buy the LG drive you can also dump them to a sd card
search this gbatemp forum (cant post links cause i am a new user :/


if you want to play the back ups you will need to do the following:

It will take about 1-3 hours depending on how good you can follow the directions.
In order to do it you need the following
1.) zelda twilight princess (you can just rent it)
2.) sd card


here is the full tutorial search google for gbatemp twilight guide

Hi All,
So someone on another forum showed me a link for 'd-skins'. These are thin clear plastic sheets with a ring that snaps over the outer rim of the DVD. You install these and then play the game right through the skin! No more fingerprints or scratches!
Just google 'd-skin'. They are available online at WalMart, Home Depot, etc.
Highly recommended.
