Default Is it the Media?

Hey guys/gals,

Since getting my Wii modded and finally catching up on backing up my library of games for it, I decided to move in the direction of Gamecube games. For some reason though, it's been hit or miss on the games that will work.

Here's the info:

- The byte sizes are 1,459,978,240 on all images.

- The image works just fine using an emulator (Dolphin).

- The media is Memorex DVD+R (this has worked for 100% of all my Wii games).

- Using ImgBurn at 4x w/verify and success.

- The success rate has been about 40% on Gamecube games my Wii will recognize (some games work with no problems)

- The media is from the same stack of a 100pk.


I do understand that there can be a bad batch of discs. It's happened to everyone at some point.

But what gets me on this is that I can burn a GC game, and it won't work... but the very next disc I pull and burn a regular Wii game, it works just fine. And I'm only making these "coasters" when I do a GC game.

Any ideas about what may be causing this?

Thanks,
Pk

I think you need GCOS. Those "coasters" are prob fine but you may need to boot them from a GCOS disc. If that's the problem, then just make gcos multi game discs. Also what modchip are you using?
