You Can Download Wii Games - Here's How!

By Sam Lockwood

The Nintendo Wii keeps being an incredibly popular game system, with individual systems flying off the shelves. Because of this, guides for downloading these games are in demand. After all, games cost a lot, and if you download them, you can try these games out for a lot less. It's a good way to save money and buy only the games you need.

Downloading Wii games is a relatively new phenomenon. The majority of people who own Wii systems aren't even aware of how easy it is to get new games. When readers were polled about this, most of them know about downloading demos and music, but not all of them were aware that there were free versions out there. Most people thought that they could only get demos, partial versions or old games.

The good news is that full games are available online to be downloaded, from the most popular older titles to brand new releases. The selection is amazing, and you could get addicted quickly.

Here's a quick guide to downloading Wii games online.

First, realize that you may want to avoid all web sites that advertise that they have free Wii Downloads. While there are plenty of them out there, there are reasons to skip them.

That's because these sites are usually made up of a network of files uploaded by the users, with no oversight or moderation. Anyone at all can add files, which means they're often virus ridden, full of adware and spyware, and have other problems, too. You may find files which claim to be one game, but turn out to be corrupted or simply mislabeled.

These sites are responsible for a lot of frustration, and by downloading from them, you're putting your computer at risk.

People wanting to download games for the Wii should think about getting a membership in a download site instead. These specialty sites allow you to download an unlimited number of games for a single flat fee.

Because the owners of these sites want your money, they're willing to run and regulate them to keep you happy. All game files will be functional, clean, and fast to download.

How much these sites cost varies a bit, but the average is about fifty dollars. This one time fee allows you to have full access as a member. You'll be a member for the lifetime of the business, and are able to download as often as you want.

Just remember that not all membership sites charge a flat fee. Some prefer a per download or per month method, which gets expensive fast.

Worried that you won't know how to use your games once you have them? Take comfort in the fact that a good site will give you all the tools and instructions you need to get them to work on your system, including software.

Better sites will also offer a guarantee. If you don't like what you're getting, just ask for your money back. Once you get used to downloading, there's a good chance you won't go back. - 2361
