    I haven't burnt any Wii games for about a year now but Nero will burn them as will other programmes, imgburn etc.What discs are you using, are you burning - or + i seem to remember one of them wouldn't work on my Wii for some reason, cant remember if it was - or + though

    THE TRUTH
    The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12

    Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
    The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.

      Hi
      I am new on here and have just noticed your post and think i can help.
      Download imgburn its free, wii games are usually downloaded as rar files so you will need winrar too. use winrar to unpack the game then open imgburn and copy it to disc as an iso image, (the top one in the selection on imgburn) and then click burn. the slower you burn the better, and its the - discs that work i find verbatims quite good.
      Hope this helps.

            Pegasus is right, use image burn and verbatim -R's are said to be best. If you d/l an iso use image burn at 2x speed. If you d/l
            wbfs or ciso file's you can convert to iso for burning with Wii converter.

                The Wii ppl reckon the verbatim are easier on the wii lense, and the slower you burn, the better the copy. Spose it's up to yourself really, whatever work's .

                  Can everyone remember that wii can only read dvd r at 3x speed while original games are run at 6x. This can sometimes cause the odd problem i.e Ghostbusters needs eject trick to work but hdd reads everything at proper speed and all your games are in one place, no chance of burning coasters. If it doesn't work delete it start again. Just thought i would put my opinion with a couple of the many reasons why I prefer to use HDD over disks.
                  TRY DROPBOX 2GB + 500mb FREE ONLINE STORAGE with public sharing and 500mb for me

                    Have to agree with that, the hdd beats having a load of discs lying around.

                        if it's an iso choose write image file to disc

                          Then at the top it says choose a file, click and find your iso on your pc,load a disc and and you see a green arrow, press to burn, think its set to 2x speed by default. Let it do it's thing, it should eject when it's finished.

                              The file which you unzip from the rars It probably is an iso so try burning one and see how it goes
