How to Backup / Copy Wii games using the WODE Jukebox Ripper – step-by-step tutorial
To make a backup copy of Wii games(and GameCube games – another tutorial) is a simple and fast process. Some games take as little as 3 minutes when you have everything setup the right way.
First your WODE Jukebox must have firmware version 2.0 or above(don’t confuse this with the Wii firmware version)

WODE Ripper Settings
To use the WODE to back up / rip your Wii games you must navigate from the WODE’s Main Menu to the Advanced Menu and then to the Ripper Menu as shown below:
WODE Main Menu select Advanced
WODE Advanced Menu select Ripper
Once in the Ripper Menu it will show Rip Setup. This is where you configure your settings to back up the Wii games(and GameCube games).
WODE Rip Setup menu
The first line displays the status of the Wii DVD drive also know as Optical Disc Drive (ODD)
eg.:
ODD : Ready – this is when there is a disc in the Wii that can be copied to the USB Hard Drive, Flash stick or SD Card
or
ODD : Empty – this is when there is no disc in the Wii DVD drive also know as Optical Disc Drive (ODD)
The second line shows:
Start – this is the function used to start Ripping Wii games and GameCube games
The third line displays the storage device connected to the WODE and it’s file system
eg.:
sda1 F – this shows a storage device is attached and uses a FAT file system
The fourth line shows the format the file will be saved as on the storage device, either .iso or .wbfs
eg.:
Format .wbfs or Format .iso
WODE Rip Setup select Format .wbfs
**Please Note: We recommend .wbfs as the files are normally a lot smaller**
and finally the fifth line displays what parts of the game disc will be copied
eg.:
Rip All
**Please Note: To keep it simple we recommend Rip All**

Now that all of the Ripper settings have been made it’s time to start copying(backing up) games onto your storage device
