With the Nintendo Wii selling out everywhere you look, it’s no surprise that we have been receiving many emails from people wondering if it is possible to download Wii games from their computer. We thought we would put together a quick guide showing you how and where you can download Wii games.

Downloading Wii games is a great way to find new games and save a bunch of cash. You can find the newest and most popular games right from your computer and don’t have to worry about pulling out your wallet each time.

Ok, enough babbling by me! Here are your options for Wii downloads:

You have two main options to choose from:

Option #1 – Download Wii Games

You might stumble upon a few websites online that advertise offering free Wii downloads. They claim that you can download Wii games after you install their free software.

These sites sound like the perfect option, but there a couple of things you need to know about them before you download anything.

First off, these websites have a terrible reputation of spreading viruses and other computer infections. A few of them have been completely shut down for this exact reason.

There websites don’t have anyone monitoring them, so it’s easy for viruses and spyware to find their way onto the system. You just never know for sure what you are getting and nobody is making sure you are protected.

Another headache is that the download speeds on these sites are ridiculously slow. You can find yourself waiting well over a day for just one file to download – and many of the file don’t even work when you try to use them! There are plenty of “corrupt” files that make their way onto these sites.

You probably aren’t surprised to hear that we don’t recommend this option. It’s just too risky – you can infect your computer and it’s an easy way to waste a bunch of time as well!

Option Number Two – Download Wii Games

This next option is a much easier and safer way to download Wii games. You can find just about any game and download it right from your own computer.

There are a small handful of smart entrepreneurs that have seen the demand for Wii downloads and have built specialty Wii download websites that allow people to download Wii games, movies and music.

The fee for using these websites is extremely reasonable. It costs about $50 for a lifetime membership – you are only billed the one time and can then download any Wii game, movie or other media file you want just by logging in.

In the long run this ends up being a lot cheaper than buying games at the store. It’s definitely an easy way to build up a big library of Nintendo Wii games along with movies and other multimedia files.

We included a link at the bottom of this article that you can use if you want to start a free trial at a few of the most popular Wii download websites.

The software that you use to transfer the games onto your Wii is included and the setup usually takes about 10 minutes.

If you are the lucky owner of a Nintendo Wii, downloading Wii games is a great way to keep your system full of new games. We should give you one big warning though – it’s extremely addictive!
