Hacking New to USB loader's

[graeme122]

I'm new to usb loaders and was wanting to know if the games are like 4 GB when they are on the USB device. Sorry if this is a stupit question

no, games are smaller than 4GB (at least most of them)

No, but more details:
A usb needs to be formatted to wbfs, (wbfs manager), and games on it wil be 1 gb max.
for example, nsmbw is around 500 mb

ok thanks guys. I see that in wiiflow there is something about downloading/trasfering games from disc and it tells me to put a wii game into my wii (which i'v not done yet) What exactly is this doing and is it ok to do this.

You haven't put a game in your Wii yet?

You probably mean the game installing function
If you insert a disc, you can use any usb loader to rip it to your hard drive

No, it will take less space on the HDD

It should be its WBFS size. So not 4GB. (Unless it's Brawl or something lol)
