<title>How is it that official games are BURNED?</title>
<description> This is NOT a piracy question, I&amp;#039;m simply curious as to why this is. What is it about the OFFICIAL Nintendo discs that allows them to read, but avoid a copy of a disc that has the exact same data? Is it the way they are burned at Nintendo? A size difference in the discs? Some sort of invisible code somewhere on the disc? I&amp;#039;ve always wondered how the Wii distinguishes between official and non-official discs, and why we haven&amp;#039;t been able to burn &quot;Official&quot; discs, essentially for any console.

So what is it about these discs that are so special?</description><link>http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,72285,72285#msg-72285</link><lastBuildDate>Mon, 10 Aug 2026 12:51:28 +0200</lastBuildDate>

However other companies like Datel could, as demonstrated by its freeloader while the trucha bug was in place.]]></description>
