I just bought a Wii, and don't get to Yongsan very often since I live on the south coast. If anybody has any burnt games they want to sell, let me know. Thanks

To be honest, I'm not that picky. I haven't really played games in a long time. I am living in a small coastal town and I'm trying to have a little fun until it warms up again. I would say any of the more poplular games (shooting, racing, fighting,mario, zelda) would be great. OcculisOrbis gave me some great info on burning my own games, but I'm not particularly tech savvy or patient, so we'll see. If you have any titles for sale send me a pm. Sorry if I'm a litle vague, but I'm new to Wii. Thanks

1. Download Wii game torrents
2. Burn onto DVD using IMGburn at slowest speed
3. Put into Wii, use the loader
ta-dah

best site ever for downloading games.

use J-downloader (edit to correct program name) to grab all the links and download in one shot. then extract and follow the directions from above.

i had lots of problems with broken files from torrents, but never had a single problem with these files. pretty sure he has almost every game made for the wii and gets new ones up before their official release most times.

I dont burn games,,,I use usb loader to play directly from an external hard drive. Some games have different settings in the loader program to get them to work correctly, but most work fine with the default settings whether they are PAL or NTSC.

I downloaded the g-downloader jar file... but when I double click it says "fail to load main-class manifest from...etc"

How do I use this prog?

make sure you have the latest java runtime installed and try double clicking the jar file again.

if that doesn't work use a program like 7zip to extract the jar file.

or you can change ***.jar to ***.zip and use other extraction software.

Awesome link. I've never downloaded that way. G-downloader was a pain to install so I tried Jdownloader (Flashget) and it worked like a charm.

All in all it worked pretty fast with megaupload (~1MB/s) and it did all the jumping around for me. I just had to sit back and wait. I wonder if it would work as well for rapidshare. Those guys are annoying with all the hoops you have to jump through.

ooops....yeah, Jdownloader is the one I'm using too. Sorry about that. Here's another download site to atone for my mistake:

Also, IMHO, GXloader is the best USB loader out there and you'll need WBFS manager to format your external drive and to load the iso files for games on to it. They are much smaller files when loaded to the harddrive because WBFS manager removes all the unnecessary parts from the dvd iso. Most games end up taking between 0.1 - 3.5 gig of space instead of the 4.7gig of the original ISO file. I currently have about 240 working games on my 500 gig drive.
