Difference between revisions of "Backup Launcher"

Revision as of 01:57, 7 October 2008

List of games that are compatible with the newly released Backup Launcher by WiiGator. [1]

NOTE: Slower loading times and stuttering audio/video are expected and should not be recorded under notes.

Anyone is free to edit this list, you must create an account first. Vandals will be Banned and their IP blocked from the servers.

Another note:

If a game is working it doesn't always make it green, as titles marked green should be/are 99.9-100% compatible.

If loading times are outrageously slow, movies aren't perfect but the game is still playable then it should be orange. (Otherwise color coding won't be helpful right?)

Compatibility Legend
Green represents games that work 100% or just have slight audio/video stutter or anything else that doesn't effect gameplay .
Orange represents games that mostly work but with more serious but playable bugs, or random lockups (random doesn't mean lock up every time at the same spot int he game).
Red represents games that do not load and have major problems and/or are unplayable, or have consistant lock ups.
