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.



You can actually download all sorts of Wii games online. It's a great feature - you save money by not having to pay for each new game and you don't even have to leave the house!

So let's cut right to the chase and show you how to find Wii downloads that you can start using today.

There are two options for finding Wii downloads:

The First Option - Wii Downloads

You first option is to look for websites that advertise offering "free Wii downloads". These sites ask you to download their software and claim that you can download Wii games at no cost.

Obviously this sounds perfect! As you probably guessed though there are a few warnings you need to know about.

The biggest problem with these types of websites is that they immediatelly put your computer at risk at catching a virus or some type of infection. There have been a number of sites like this that have been shut down for spreading all sorts of viruses.

The problem here is that there isn't anyone that monitors these websites and the files that make their way on them. Because of this you can never be certain that what you are downloading is "infection free".

The other problem is that the download speeds are awfully slow. It can take well over a day for a game to download (even with high-speed!) and unfortunately many of the files don't even end up working.

We can't recommend this option simply because it puts your computer at risk and can waste a lot of your time as well.

Option Number Two - Download Wii Games

Thankfully, this next option gives you a way to download Wii games without having to worry about viruses and the downloads are fast(and guaranteed to work!).

When the Wii started picking up in popularity, people saw that there was a demand for downloading Wii games. A couple of smart entrepreneurs decided to build specialty Wii download websites in order to fill this need. These websites offer Wii games, movies, TV shows and music for download all from one central site.

As you can probably guess, these websites charge a membership fee, but it isn't expensive. The cost is about $50 and this gives you a lifetime membership. You can login at any time and download any game or movie that you want.

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.

At the bottom of this article you can find a link you can use if you want to learn how to get a free trial at a couple of the top-ranked Wii download websites.

If the Nintendo Wii has a place in your home, you will want to try using Wii downloads to see how easy it is. It's a great way to keep your Wii 'fully loaded' with new games and movies. We think it's only fair that we warn you though - once you start it's easy to get hooked! All the best!
