How to Burn a Wii ISO to a PBDS DVD

Back up your Wii games to blank DVDs.

The Nintendo Wii uses regular single and dual-layer DVDs as its gaming medium. If you are trying to back up your Wii games and have been left with the disc image file (ISO), you must now burn it to a blank DVD. This can be done with any DVD burner, including the PBDS models. All you need is a good ISO burning program like one of the three below.

Things You'll Need

• Blank DVD
• Express Burner
• Imgburn
• Nero

1. Download and install one of the ISO-burning programs from the Resource section of this article. You may choose Express Burner, Imgburn or Nero.

2. Open Express Burner and click "Burner" from the top portion of the menu. Click "Write ISO to disc" and a new window will appear. Select your Wii ISO and click "OK" to burn your Wii image onto the DVD.
