"The Nintendo Wii had another incredible year in 2008, selling millions upon millions of hardware units. With software hits like Wii Fit, Mario Kart and the continued success of Wii Play, Nintendo is in a good position with the casual audience, but it'll take more than Mario Kart to bring the hardcore back into the Nintendo fold.

Games talked about:
  1. MadWorld
  2. Mario Power Tennis

Step By Step Guide to burning a downloaded Wii ISO

Below is a small guide for burning the downloaded games from sites & the dumping guide I used for original games...

Remember that to play the backups you will need a modchip!

Using Downloaded Games:

DL the .rar links. Using Winrar, extract them to the game named folder (you will find they combine into an .iso-just like with the psp games. Using Nero-Go to Nero burning rom & select DVD (ISO) go to last header (Burn)-on the top of the app., change write speed to 4.0 or lower & on same screen, down bottom, you will see "open" with a folder next to it-click on it & find your game ISO. Double click on it and another screen will appear showing your drives & click ok. Once you've had a successful burn-You're good to go. When you load them into your Wii-give it a moment & you should see the picture & title of your game appear in the 1st Wii picture window. Hope this helps.

Below is the Backup guide I used to dump my original Games.

Backup tutorial with Rawdump 2.0 and Nero burning rom software.


First step in copying your games for backup purposes is to get the right software and hardware. You will need one of the following DVD drives to copy games (no others will work).
* LG-8164b
* LG-8163b
* LG-8162b
* LG-8161b

Personally I have the 8164b and have had zero problems. I'm sure the others are fine also.
Once you install this drive into your computer you will need to download a few applications.

* Raw Dump 2.0
* .Net Framework 2.0
* Software to unzip the Raw Dump files (Winrar)

Once you download the files above then right-click on the rawdump2.0.rar and select "Extract to rawdump2.0\"
this will make a folder on your desktop called rawdump2.0.

Now insert your Wii or Gamecube game into the LG drive that you have ordered and installed. Then open the rawdump2.0 folder and double click on the rawdump2.0.exe file.

After doing this you will be presented with the following.






















The next step is to just click "Start Dump." On my computer this process took just about 2.5 hours. When it is complete you will be greeted with a nice finished message. The file it creates will be in the same directory as the rawdump.exe file. It should be called "Game Name.iso." This ISO is an image of the actual game and is ready to be burned. You can burn this image with many different applications, but I will be providing screenshots for Nero Burning Rom.

This step is very important. You need to check your file and see how many KB large it is. To do this Right-Click on your ISO (this is in your rawdump directory) and select properties. It should say,

Nintendo Wii ISO size: 4.37 GB (4,699,979,776 bytes).

Nintendo Gamecube ISO size: 1.35 GB (1,459,978,240 bytes)

All Nintendo Wii and Gamecube images will be this exact byte size. If your Wiiimage is off by any then you have a bad dump and need to try again.

So next step is to open Nero.

The first step once nero opens it to just cancel out of the create new dvd/cd/etc dialog. Once you have exited from this dialog you go to Recorder->Burn Image



After making it this far you are almost done. When you click burn image you will be asked to locate the image. The image will be located in your Rawdump2.0 folder. For me, this is on the desktop.



Select the game that you have dumped with rawdump and click open. You will then be presented with the below dialog. Make sure to select a relatively slow burn speed at first to attempt to prevent DRE's(Disc Read Errors). These seem to be common among people that do not use high quality dvd's.



I hope this mini-guide helps you.

Remember only certain DVD drives can properly copy Commercial Wii games theses are the ones:

* LG-8164b
* LG-8163b
* LG-8162b
* LG-8161b

This does not apply to downloaded games ANY DVD burner will work!

How-To Safely Soft Mod Your Wii To Run Homebrew

So on the ninth of this month a new homebrew loader was released to the public. So far this seems to be a really good example of the potential of the Twilight Hack. It replicates the Wii menu and allows you to customize channel images and names for your Homebrew titles.

This loader will run all the current Homebrew titles and supports 36 apps (channels). This loader requires a copy of Twilight Princess. The loader was authored by an overseas homebrewer so I have included a link to a translated copy of the site below as well as written step by step how to guide for getting things rolling.

On the inner circle of the Twilight Princess CD you will find some jargon numbers. This actually tells you what version you have. You will need one of the following versions to run the Twilight Hack Exploit

Euro RVL-RZDP-0A-0 JPNAsia RVL-RZDJ-0A-0 JPNAmerica RVL-RZDE-0A-0 JPNAmerica RVL-RZDE-0A-0 USAAmerica RVL-RZDE-0A-2 USA
What You Will Need:

  • A Supported copy of Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess
  • One SD card formatted as a FAT16 storage device
  • The ability to use the SD card on a computer
  • One GameCube Controller
  • One GameCube Memory cards (For some homebrew apps)
  • The Current Version Of The Twilight Hack Found here
  • The Wii Homebrew Loader
  • The Wii Homebrew Pack


Step 1: Format the SD Card to FAT16 (For Windows users it’s just named FAT)

Step 2: If not already placed create a directory in the CD card called “/private/wii/title/RZDx/”
on your SD card; replace “RZDx” with RZDE, RZDP or RZDJ as appropriate.Copy the above file into that directory, renaming it as “data.bin”.

Step 3: Copy the Wii Homebrew Launcher boot.elf on the SD card. Create a folder homebrew on root of the SD card.

Step 4: Download some Homebrew apps that you find appealing to you. Create a subfolder for each app in the Homebrew directory of the SD card (Max 8 characters). Copy the Homebrews elf file to the directory and make sure it’s named boot.elf

Step 5: Throw the SD card in your Wii and turn it on. Go into Wii Options –> Data Management –> Save Data –> Wii. Find your Zelda save, click on it, and click “Erase”, and click Yes. Now go into SD card, and select the “Twilight Hack” save (the icon says “Wiibrew Loader”). Click copy, and yes. Now, go back out of that menu.

Step 6: Insert Zelda, and run the game. Load file A, and either walk backwards, or talk to the guy that’s standing in front of you.Presto! You should soon see a familiar interface with all the installed custom Homebrew channels . To navigate the application you will need a GameCube controller.

Controls:UP / DOWN / LEFT / RIGHT: Select HomebrewA: Start a selected Homebrew appR / L: Changes the page (if more than 11 Homebrew)Z: Refreshes the list of channels
