To Burn Wii games or not to ? That's the question. The Wii is increasing in popularity, and as such there is a huge demand for games. Even worse, games are expensive, so what happens if you scratch the disc or something? Read on to find out how to burn Wii games that you can use as a backup.

Okay now before you get into this, it's update yourself on the copyright laws in your area. In most places, it's legal to burn Wii games, as long as you own the original, and that the copies are for your personal use only, IE as backups. This is the most common law, but please check it out in your area all the same - there are no Wiis in jail, so you don't really want to end up there right?

First of all, it's not possible to do any copying or anything with the Wii itself, so you'll need to use your computer, and you will need a specific kind of DVD Drive in order to get it working. You need one of the LG-816 series, most notably 8161b, 8162b or 8163b. There is plenty of information about these on Google, so perform a quick search if you need to, and if you are having trouble finding the drives you need to burn Wii games, check Ebay, you can usually get them there.

Wii Wish List

(NES)
It's a brand new year for the Wii Virtual Console, and Nintendo is bringing out two relatively nice sized guns to get things started.
Star Tropics for the NES takes the top-down perspective of the original Legend of Zelda and adds a constant storyline divided into chapters to deliver one of the best gaming experiences on the NES, all for 500 points. Join Mike Jones as he sets off on a quest to rescue his famous uncle that ranges from the tropics to the very stars themselves, hence the title..
Shop for Video Games at ToysRus.com

The games are purchased in the Wii Shop Channel and require users to purchase Wii Points., NES games cost 500 points, SNES and Genesis games cost 800 points, Nintendo 64 games cost 1000 points, and TurboGrafx-16 games cost 600 points. The only titles with different pricing are Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (which costs 600 Wii Points, instead of the usual 500 for a NES game) and R-Type (which costs 800 points instead of the usual 600 for a TurboGrafx-16 game).
