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?)
New: Confirm box and not work box. If you have the time, Put in if a game (that is already on here) worked for you by editing the numer. Example: If you backed up (insert game name here), and it didn't work, (although the Wiki says it does) Please increase the number on the box "Not true". This make things a bit simpler because sometimes a game works for one person, but not the other.
Compatibility Legend
|
