I'm fairly sure this is possible, but I'm not sure. And in any case I wouldn't know how to do it.

Is it possible to download a video game torrent, then burn the files to a disc and play them on my Wii? I realize this is a stupid question, but I've let the world of pirating get ahead of me in the last few years, so yep.

And, if you can, how do you do it? Like detailed instructions and all, yeah?

Oooh that's right. I remember reading about all the shit you have to do to the console to get it to recognize burnt games.

Oh well, I still have PC games to steal. :D

With most modern consoles, you need a mod chip or special swap disk for that kind of thing.

Dunno much about the Wii though.

Difficult process. I wouldn't recommend it unless you know exactly what you're modding.

Just pay for those, stick to downloading movies and music.

probably have to get it modded. not worth it

Yeah, my friend does it to his xbox 360, has almost 30 games from doing that.....but then he got banned

Not without chipping or otherwise modding your Wii, AFAIK. It won't recognise the burnt game without some sort of software mod at least.

It's possible, but not worth the hassle.
