This guide provides instructions on how to manage your GameCube backups, using GameCube Backup Manager. It functions similar to [Wii Backup Manager](wii-backups#using-wii-backup-manager).

### Requisitos

* Una tarjeta SD o unidad USB
* [GameCube Backup Manager](https://github.com/AxionDrak/GameCube-Backup-Manager/releases)

Si deseas guardar múltiples juegos, te recomendamos adquirir un disco duro externo para tu Wii. La Wii es compatible con la mayoría de discos externos que se encuentran en el mercado.

Asegúrate de que tu unidad USB o tarjeta SD esté formateada como FAT32. No es posible usar otros sistemas de archivos, como NTFS, exFAT, extFS, o WBFS. Este último es un formato obsoleto y ya no es necesario para almacenar juegos de Wii.

1. Click on the `Files (Destination)` tab, then select the `Inactive` option from the dropdown menu. This will allow you to choose the drive where you want to transfer the game. Select the appropriate drive letter from the list.

1. Next, go back to the `Files (Source)` tab, select the game you want to transfer, and then click either `Install Game (1:1)` or `Install Game (Scrub)`.

Selecting `Install Game (Scrub)` will remove unnecessary data from the game, reducing the game's file size. For some games this can be a major reduction, for example with Animal Crossing - going from 1.3GB to around 26MB.
