For many people, the first thing that they do after they purchase a Wii game console is to try to learn how to copy Wii games. If they get to the point that they’re making some progress, their next question is often “Is it within the law to copy wii games?”

Well, the brief answer is “Absolutely!” It is 100% legal and lawful to make copies of Wii games. Some other factors come into play though, that make a longer answer necessary.

There’s been a lot of arguing in recent years, but the answer is located in the Fair Use Act, which plainly states that you are legally able to rip, copy, burn, backup, or whatever you would like to call it, if you are the owner of the original disc. This includes movies, games, and music and any other kinds of media. In fact, it is suggested that persons copy media, ASAP after purchase.

When you make a copy in this manner, you’ll have a backup in case your original is lost or destroyed. What you do is to use the replica on a daily basis, in the original’s place. Then, when the copy wears out, you can make another copy off of the master to use daily. There is nothing legally wrong with making backups of games whatsoever. The government isn’t going to fine you or drag you off for “extraordinary rendition” like a terrorist for making these copies.

There is, however, a problem to address if you want to learn how to copy Wii games. You will need the use of a software program that can erase any licenses. The manufacturers place these limitations on the video games, in an attempt to stop the user from burning the video games and selling or giving the games to friends. They can do nothing to completely eliminate this problem, but they can make it difficult.

The protections themselves are perfectly lawful, but removing them is equally as lawful. So in an attempt to assist all those users in the world who do not want to ruin their masters, software companies have created programs that can do this task relatively quickly, and quite easily as well.

If you search the web for “how to copy wii games”, you’re bound to find multiple editions of this type of software. Best of luck!
