If you do not have an optical drive that can rip wii and gamecube discs, it is possible to rip the files from the disc via a wii console: Using CleanRip can rip a game disc to an SD card or an external USB storage device. It requires your wii or vwii system to have the Homebrew Channel.

For a guide on how to install the homebrew channel on your wii, GameCube Discs No gamecube titles take up more than 1.5GiB (, or 1024 3 bytes). It's generally a good idea to set Chunk Size to max, so that your iso isn't split into parts.

• Some original games do not work when a certain application has been installed, like DAEMON Tools. In most cases using a No-CD or Fixed EXE will solve this problem! • Some No-CD/Fixed EXE files work fine in Single Player mode but are detected to be modified when trying to play online. When this happens use the original EXE to play online, else you could find yourself banned from the game! • When using Fixed Files make sure to use a Firewall which controls outgoing traffic, as some games call back to report the use of these modified files!

Gamecube discs can store a maximum of 1.5GiB, so the entire ISO can fit on a FAT32 drive. Simply follow the instructions on-screen and you'll be able to put the game straight from the SD card or USB drive into dolphin. Wii Discs In order to rip a wii disc, a storage device with more than 4.7GiB of free space is recommended for single layer, 8.54 GiB for dual layer.

However, by dividing the disc into chunks, an SD card with even a single gibibyte of free space is sufficient. At the CleanRip Setup screen, set Chunk Size to 'Max', and New device per chunk to 'No' is recommended with SD cards or external USB storage devices large enough to hold the entirety of the ripped disc file at once. Otherwise, set Chunk Size to max possible ( '1GB', '2GB', '3GB', or 'Max') and set New device per chunk to 'Yes' and when CleanRip is asking for the next device, remove it from the Wii and move the first or so ISO file to free up space and use it again. When all pieces have been received, check in the next subsection. • CleanRip will split the ripped disc file with more than 4GiB in file size regardless to fit the FAT, FAT16, or FAT32 file systems. These file systems have a max file size of 4GiB. To remedy this, it is recommended to rip discs to a USB external NTFS formatted storage device (as Wii cannot read NTFS formatted SD cards).

The NTFS file system has a theoretical max file size of 16 EiB (Exabyte), or 16,777,216GiB. • Certain Wii discs are. CleanRip will need to be configured in order to rip those kinds of discs. At the Wii Disc Ripper Setup screen, set Dual Layer to Yes.

The rip will take roughly double the time than usual Wii discs of 4.38GiB as the dual layer ISOs are 7.93GiB in size. Joining Split Files In order to use a split iso in dolphin, its parts must be recombined • Make sure all of the pieces are named using the 'GAMEID.part#.iso'. For instance, a part of a iso might be named RSBE01.part0.iso.

• Place all the pieces in the same folder or directory • Start a command prompt or terminal window and run the commands below, replacing with the files location. Windows cd copy /b *.part?iso fulliso.iso Linux / macOS cd cat *.part*.iso > fulliso.iso USB Loader GX The Wii or vWii installed with the latest version of and certain cIOS (such as ) can rip Wii game discs.
