Region free would be cool, but what do you mean for 'backups' because your discs are so scratched.regionfree backuping would be cool my discs are so scratched
that's a good question...Heres a though that has been bothering me the past few months...Will we be able to burn GC backups or rips on full 4.7gig disks? I first preminition is yes but i was thinking if the wii boots up thinking its a gc game does the dvd drive play it any differently physically? Like grab the disk but its outer edges in this case breaking both the wii drive and the backed up copy. What do you think?
The only physical difference should be in the position where the laser head starts looking for the lead-in. If it doesn't find the lead-in sector on the DVD in the location where it's supposed to be, it simply ejects the DVD. No reason to worry. I've tried putting in movie DVDs, music CDs, 8 cm CDs, photo CDs, everything, to see what it will say, and all it does is spit them out.
.....
No what im saying it checks the information on the disk to determine physical size.
"Now, if the drive reads gamecube and wii games physically differently, then there could be some problems. Also, problems could arise if the centering mechanism is what is used to determine whether it's a gamecube game or not.
Barring those two possibilities, however, I don't see any problem with the hardware."
Thata whst i suspect what happening
