Hey everybody – I just wanted to throw up a quick post to let you know about this new I just found out about. It turns out that there is actually a way to copy wii games without installing a mod chip.
It’s a little tricky and technical, but here are the instructions for my fellow geeks. Basically what this involves is installing a custom IOS. (IOS36 currently).
Caveat: If you want to know how to copy Wii games, but you’re not a geek, or not comfortable with any of these instructions, Click Here for the “Easy Button” method.
Instructions
Ok, so everyone who’s still with us, let’s get started.
Step 1: Download the IOS
Download the files for the custom IOS. I’m not including a link, since they change so frequently. You’re a geek. Check the discussion boards! Copy the download into the root of your SD Card.
Step 2: Install the IOS
Open the Homebrew Channel -> click on ”Apps/cIOS Rev7/boot.dol” -> click “Load” -> Choose “WAD Install” -> then restart your Wii.
Step 3: Install DVDx
Get back into the Homebrew Channel -> Select Apps/DVDx/boot.dol -> Choose “Advanced Install” for the IOS that you installed above -> Click “Done”
Step 4: Install Backup Loader
This is part is critical is you want to copy Wii games. In the Homebrew Channel (yet again) select Apps/WADManager1.3/boot.dol -> Hit “Load’ -> Select “Backup Loader (x.x)” -> Hit “Done”
Step 5: Make sure that you have all of the latest patches!

I know that this is a difficult and “geeky” method, but if you’re wondering how to copy Wii games, it’s a great (and free) way to go about it without voiding your warranty. Just remember, if you ever do have to send the console back in for service, uninstall the hacks first if possible so that you don’t tip off the repair team!
If you have a few dollars to spend, though, (and I do just mean a few) – I would recommend checking out this cool new software that you can download that allows you to make backups and copies of Wii games just using your computer’s CD or DVD burner. For the price, it saves a lot of hassle!
