AFAIK the only way to do it yourself is either with a gamecube and broad band adapter along with a chip or way to boot homebrew, or a gamecube with a mod chip that has a usb port.

someone else help me out plz

rip them using a DVD rom that is able to rip Wii games.. I ripped Pikmin 2 this way on my LG GDR-8162b and it works fine on my chipped cube i havnt reied it on a chipped Wii yet as im waiting for my chip to come

[coldjim]

ok
so is it just like ripping a ps2 game etc?
do i just put the game in my dvd rom drive, and then use nero or alchol 120% to rip the game?
then burn it?

it is *impossible* to backup a game without using your gamecube, listen to AceMilo, it is the ONLY way

Huh? Not without a GameCube? I thought you could do that with Rawdump 2.0 and the proper LG DVD reader?

[hedpe]

if so i stand corrected, been out of the scene for a couple months

[coldjim]

i don;t have a gamecube
