wth man? you ever try keeping kids away from shiny things?

my specialty was figuring out how things worked by pulling them to pieces. i would hardly call my parents bad for not keeping every little gadget out of my reach, but rather, teaching me (slowly, and with many dead walkmans) to respect other people's things.

You could try using CloneCD (from slysoft.com), but I think that Wii games are burned using a special burner (you might not be able to backup them up). Ask over at slysoft.com and afterdawn.com

EDIT: It was brought to my attention that the following is most likely a scam. Follow at your own discretion (mods please edit further if necessary).
P.S., I came across a website called backupwii.net that has some more info on backing up legally obtained games. I don't know anything about them, so you're on your own there.

That site's shady, it recommends using Game Copy Wizard, which is known (http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=12208) to be a SCAM.

I just came across it on a google search. I don't know anything about it. I still standby my recommendation of CloneCD and asking at Afterdawn and Slysoft.

One way is by having a special DVD-ROM drive on your PC (one of the following: LG-8164b, LG-8163b, LG-8162b, LG-8161b), but there is a free way:

You'll have to install some custom IOS's, there's one program that will do everything for you automatically, it's called ModMii. It will take you through the process step by step.

Once everything is installed you will have to download a Wii->PC ripper, go to the forums at gbatemp (.net) and they'll be happy to recommend one.

lifehacker.com posted an article a while back about backing up Wii games to an external hard drive using homebrew, might be worth checking out, I never had the time to follow up on it.

The cool thing is that ModMii does all of those things automatically!

And I forgot to mention if you are backing up to an SD card or USB drive ModMii also includes the software to do that.
