This guide covers dumping GameCube or Wii game discs to a local SD card or USB drive on your Wii.

Dumping a Disc to SD/USB (CleanRip)

Instrumente necesare

• An SD card or USB drive with at least 4.7 GB of free space (8.5 GB if dumping a dual layer disc).
• CleanRip

Preparation

1. Copy all the files that share the same name and end with .partX.iso into an empty folder on your computer.

2. Open the folder in File Explorer.

3. While holding Shift, right click on an empty space within the folder.

4. Select "Open PowerShell window here".

5. In the new window that appears, type cmd and press enter.

6. Finally, type copy /b *.part?.iso game.iso and press enter.

7. Launch CleanRip from the list of homebrew.

8. When prompted, select Yes to calculate disc checksums.

   

9. Select your device that you will be dumping the game to - a USB device or SD card.

   

10. Select the filesystem type of the device - in most cases it will be FAT (FAT32).

    

11. Ensure that your device is connected to the system and press A to proceed.

    

12. When prompted, select Yes to download the redump.org DAT files.

    • This is required to ensure that the resulting dumps are clean/accurate.

    You may get an exception error if you do this. If so, restart your Wii and try again - but if you continue to get exception errors, dump the disc and verify the checksum in Dolphin instead if needed. {: .notice--warning}

    

13. Insert the game disc you would like to dump, and press A to continue.

    

Dumping a Wii Disc

As of v2.1.2 of CleanRip, there is an option to auto-detect whether or not the disc you have is dual layer. If you are on an earlier version, or just want to verify that the correct option is being selected, you can check this list to see if your game is a dual layer disc. {: .notice--info}

If you get an unrecovered read error, ensure that the disc you are attempting to dump is clean and can be properly read by the console. Even though you may be able to play the game disc normally, you may still get this error. If the error persists, try to dump another disc and see if the same error happens. {: .notice--warning}

1. When prompted, select if your disc is an unlicensed Datel disc. If unsure, select No.

   

2. Set the settings as shown on the screen below, while verifying if your game disc is dual layer or not.

   

3. Press A to start dumping the disc.

   • This process can take quite some time, since it will dump all 4.7 GB of the DVD (8.5 GB for dual layer discs).

   

4. When the dump finishes, you should see a screen with the MD5 checksum of your disc, compared to the Redump DAT if you enabled it.

   

Proceed to Managing Wii Backups to join the PART files that are output, and manage your dumped games. {: .notice--info}

Dumping a GameCube Disc

1. When prompted, select if your disc is an unlicensed Datel disc. If unsure, select No.

   

2. Press A to start dumping the disc.

   • This process can take some time, since it will dump all 1.3 GB of the Mini DVD.

   

3. When the dump finishes, you should see a screen with the MD5 checksum of your disc, compared to the Redump DAT if you enabled it.

   

Proceed to Managing GameCube Backups to shrink the size of your output file, and manage your dumped games. {: .notice--info}
