Now we all cant be blessed with a Dvd drive that supports the dumping of wii games so some of us have to download em. Well since torrenting is the only means i have found so far( and ohh my is it slow when you get no seeders) i have a simple question is there any other method of downloading games besides p2p methods. Such as a direct download site maybe? Any insight on this blight upon me would be wonderful. Thanks :)

http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/593028 , though is not free, is best and worth it. Should only take 2-3hours for a 4.7gb download.

Some ISP's come with free newsgroups that are alright, so if you don't want to spend the money I'd check if you're ISP has a free newsgroup.

Also, the following link is a pretty good guide on how to use newsgroups

Newsgroups are a little harder to use but the high download speeds definitely make it worth it.
